Abstract
of hard double-parton scattering, using 20.2fb−1of data recorded in the ATLAS detector at the LHC at centre-of-mass energy √s=8TeV. In the four-lepton invariant-mass range of 80 <1000GeV, an artificial neural network is used to enhance the separation between single-and double-parton scattering based on the kinematics of the four leptons in the final state. An upper limit on the fraction of events originating from double-parton scattering is determined at 95% confidence level to be fDPS=0.042, which results in an estimated lower limit on the effective cross section at 95% confidence level of 1.0mbFile | Dimensione | Formato | |
