The data analysis uses 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\) of \({pp}\) collisions at \(\sqrt{s}=13\) recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The data are found to be consistent with the expected Standard Model background. The observed (expected — assuming Standard Model \({pp} → H → {Z}γ\) production and decay) upper limit on the production cross section times the branching ratio for \({pp} → H → {Z}γ\) is 6.6. (5.2) times the Standard Model prediction at the 95% confidence level for a Higgs boson mass of 125.09 GeV. In addition, upper limits are set on the production cross section times the branching ratio as a function of the mass of a narrow resonance between 250 GeV and 2.4 TeV, assuming spin-0 resonances produced via gluon-gluon fusion, and spin-2 resonances produced via gluon-gluon or quark-antiquark initial states. For high-mass spin-0 resonances, the observed (expected) limits vary between 88 fb (61 fb) and 2.8 fb (2.7 fb) for the mass range from 250 GeV to 2.4 TeV at the 95% confidence level.

The analysis relies on the identification of \(b\)-jets and high missing transverse momentum to achieve good sensitivity. A data sample of proton-proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s} = 13\) TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2015 and 2016, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\), is used for the search. No significant excess over the Standard Model prediction is observed. The results are interpreted in several simplified supersymmetric models featuring \(R\)-parity conservation or \(R\)-parity violation, extending the exclusion limits from previous searches. In models considering gluino pair production, gluino masses are excluded up to 1.87 TeV at 95% confidence level. When bottom squarks are pair-produced and decay to a chargino and a top quark, models with bottom squark masses below 700 GeV and light neutralinos are excluded at 95% confidence level. In addition, model-independent limits are set on a possible contribution of new phenomena to the signal region yields.

The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb\(^{−1}\), recorded in 2015 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Events with exactly one electron or muon and at least two jets in the final state are used for the measurement. Two separate selections are applied that each focus on different top-quark momentum regions, referred to as resolved and boosted topologies of the \(t\overline{t}\) final state. The measured spectra are corrected for detector effects and are compared to several Monte Carlo simulations by means of calculated \(χ^2\) and \(p\)-values.

This measurement is performed with 3.2 nb\(^{−1}\) of proton–proton collision data at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 7 TeV from 2010 and 0.1 nb\(^{−1}\) of data at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 8 TeV from 2012. A number of aspects of the calorimeter response to isolated hadrons are explored. After accounting for energy deposited by neutral particles, there is a 5% discrepancy in the modelling, using various sets of GEANT4 hadronic physics models, of the calorimeter response to isolated charged hadrons in the central calorimeter region. The description of the response to anti-protons at low momenta is found to be improved with respect to previous analyses. The electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters are also examined separately, and the detector simulation is found to describe the response in the hadronic calorimeter well. The jet energy scale uncertainty and correlations in scale between jets of different momenta and pseudorapidity are derived based on these studies. The uncertainty is 2–5% for jets with transverse momenta above 2 TeV, where this method provides the jet energy scale uncertainty for ATLAS.

Events with exactly three charged leptons, or two leptons with the same electric charge in association with two jets, are selected. The total number of events observed in data is consistent with the Standard Model (SM) predictions. The observed 95% confidence level upper limit on the SM \({W^\pm}{W^\pm}{W^\mp}\) production cross section is found to be 730 fb with an expected limit of 560 fb in the absence of SM \({W^\pm}{W^\pm}{W^\mp}\) production.

The event selection applies a veto on the presence of isolated electrons or muons and additional requirements on the number of \(b\)-tagged jets and the scalar sum of masses of large-radius jets. Having explored the full ATLAS 2015-2016 dataset of LHC proton-proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 13 TeV, which corresponds to 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\) of integrated luminosity, no evidence is found for physics beyond the Standard Model. The results are interpreted in the context of simplified models inspired by R-parity-conserving and R-parity-violating supersymmetry, where gluinos are pair-produced. More generic models within the phenomenological minimal supersymmetric Standard Model are also considered.

The proton-proton collision data were produced at the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and recorded by the ATLAS detector in 2015 and 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\). The inclusive fiducial cross section in the \(H\) → \({ZZ^*}\) → \(4{ℓ}\) decay channel is measured to be 3.62 ± 0.50(stat)\(^{+0.25}_{− 0.20}\) (sys) fb, in agreement with the Standard Model prediction of 2.91 ± 0.13 fb. The cross section is also extrapolated to the total phase space including all Standard Model Higgs boson decays. Several differential fiducial cross sections are measured for observables sensitive to the Higgs boson production and decay, including kinematic distributions of jets produced in association with the Higgs boson. Good agreement is found between data and Standard Model predictions. The results are used to put constraints on anomalous Higgs boson interactions with Standard Model particles, using the pseudo-observable extension to the kappa-framework.

The proton-proton collision data set analysed amounts to 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\) at \(\sqrt{s} = 13\) TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. Top quark pair events are searched for, where one top quark decays into \(qH\) and the other decays into \(bW\). Both the hadronic and leptonic decay modes of the \(W\) boson are used. No significant excess is observed and an upper limit is set on the \({t → cH}\) branching ratio of 2.2 × 10\(^{−3}\) at the 95% confidence level, while the expected limit in the absence of signal is 1.6 × 10\(^{−3}\). The corresponding limit on the \(tcH\) coupling is 0.090 at the 95% confidence level. The observed upper limit on the \({t → uH}\) branching ratio is 2.4 × 10\(^{−3}\).

The search uses 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\) of \(pp\) collision data at \(\sqrt{s}\) = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Direct production of pairs of bottom and top squarks (\(\overline{b}_1\) and \(\overline{t}_1\)) is searched for in final states with \(b\)-tagged jets and missing transverse momentum. Distinctive selections are defined with either no charged leptons (electrons or muons) in the final state, or one charged lepton. The zero-lepton selection targets models in which the \(\overline{b}_1\) is the lightest squark and decays via \(\overline{b}_1\) → \(b\overline{χ}^0_1\), where \(\overline{χ}^0_1\) is the lightest neutralino. The one-lepton final state targets models where bottom or top squarks are produced and can decay into multiple channels, \(\overline{b}_1\) → \(b\overline{χ}^0_1\) and \(\overline{b}_1\) → \(t\overline{χ}^±_1\), or \(\overline{t}_1\) → \(t\overline{χ}^0_1\) and \(\overline{t}_1\) → \(b\overline{χ}^±_1\), where \(\overline{χ}^±_1\) is the lightest chargino and the mass difference \(m_{\overline{χ}^±_1}\) − \(m_{\overline{χ}^0_1}\) is set to 1 GeV. No excess above the expected Standard Model background is observed. Exclusion limits at 95% confidence level on the mass of third-generation squarks are derived in various supersymmetry-inspired simplified models.

The search uses 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\) of \(\sqrt{s}=13\) TeV proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider in 2015 and 2016. The dominant sources of background are estimated using parameterized extrapolations, based on observables at medium jet multiplicity, to predict the \(b\)-tagged jet multiplicity distribution at the higher jet multiplicities used in the search. No significant excess over the Standard Model expectation is observed and 95% confidence-level limits are extracted constraining four simplified models of \(R\)-parity-violating supersymmetry that feature either gluino or top-squark pair production. The exclusion limits reach as high as 2.1 TeV in gluino mass and 1.2 TeV in top-squark mass in the models considered. In addition, an upper limit is set on the cross-section for Standard Model \(t\overline{t}t\overline{t}\) production of 60 fb (6.5 × the Standard Model prediction) at 95% confidence level. Finally, model-independent limits are set on the contribution from new phenomena to the signal-region yields.

An analysis of 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\) of \(\sqrt{s}\) = 13 TeV proton-proton collisions collected using the ATLAS detector at the LHC yields no significant excess over the expected Standard Model background. To interpret the results a simplified supersymmetric model is used where the top squark is assumed to decay via \(\tilde{t}_1\) → \(t^{(∗)}\)\(\tilde{χ}^0_1\) and \(\tilde{t}_1\) → \(b\tilde{χ}^±_1\) → \({bW}^{(∗)}\tilde{χ}^0_1\), where \(\tilde{χ}^0_1\) (\(\tilde{χ}^±_1\)) denotes the lightest neutralino (chargino). Exclusion limits are placed in terms of the top-squark and neutralino masses. Assuming a branching ratio of 100% to \(t\tilde{χ}^0_1\), top-squark masses in the range 450–1000 GeV are excluded for \(\tilde{χ}^0_1\) masses below 160 GeV. In the case where \(m_{\tilde{t}_1}\) ∼ \(m_t\) + \(m_{\tilde{χ}^0_1}\), top-squark masses in the range 235–590 GeV are excluded.
