Cross section measurement of associated J/ψ+W<sup>±</sup> production with the ATLAS detector.

ORAL

Abstract

The cross-sections of prompt and non-prompt production of J/ψ+W± are being measured by the ATLAS Collaboration using the 139 fb-1 Run II 13 TeV pp collision data set. The prompt production of J/ψ associated with a W±, where both particles are produced in a single parton-parton interaction, provides constraints on models of non-relativistic QCD, especially in the realm of heavy quarkonia production. The measurement is an all-leptonic final state with J/ψ→μ+μ- and W±→l±ν, and it is performed differentially in J/ψ transverse momentum and rapidity. Finally, the non-prompt measurement allows for the study of top production and b-quark fragmentation.
