Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzes the compatibility of Higgs boson mass measurements from several experiments (ATLAS, LHCb, CDF, D0) using a coherent framework that accounts for theory uncertainties.
  • The combination of these measurements with recent parton distribution functions (PDF) indicates low compatibility with global Drell-Yan results, with CT18 being the most compatible due to its larger uncertainties.
  • Removing the CDF measurement yields a higher probability of compatibility (91%) and results in a different Higgs boson mass value compared to the CDF's own measurement using the same PDF set.

A search for the exclusive hadronic decays W^{±}→π^{±}γ, W^{±}→K^{±}γ, and W^{±}→ρ^{±}γ is performed using up to 140  fb^{-1} of proton-proton collisions recorded with the ATLAS detector at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt[s]=13  TeV. If observed, these rare processes would provide a unique test bench for the quantum chromodynamics factorization formalism used to calculate cross sections at colliders. Additionally, at future colliders, these decays could offer a new way to measure the W boson mass through fully reconstructed decay products.

This Letter presents the first study of the energy dependence of diboson polarization fractions in WZ→ℓνℓ^{'}ℓ^{'}(ℓ,ℓ^{'}=e,μ) production. The dataset used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 140  fb^{-1} of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector. Two fiducial regions with an enhanced presence of events featuring two longitudinally polarized bosons are defined.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the strange quark content of protons by measuring the production cross section of W bosons and charm quarks in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV, using data from the CMS detector at the LHC.
  • - W bosons are identified through their decays into leptons (electrons or muons) and neutrinos, while charm quarks are tagged by detecting muons or secondary vertices in jets.
  • - The measurements, which reach a precision of 1%, include both inclusive and differential analyses based on the transverse momentum and pseudorapidity of the leptons, and the results are compared with advanced theoretical predictions in quantum chromodynamics.
