We present the rest-frame ultraviolet-optical spectral properties of 65 broad absorption line (BAL) quasars from the Gemini Near Infrared Spectrograph-Distant Quasar Survey (GNIRS-DQS). These properties are compared with those of 195 non-BAL quasars from GNIRS-DQS in order to identify the drivers for the appearance of BALs in quasar spectra. In particular, we compare equivalent widths and velocity widths, as well as velocity offsets from systemic redshifts, of principal emission lines. In spite of the differences between their rest-frame ultraviolet spectra, we find that luminous BAL quasars are generally indistinguishable from their non-BAL counterparts in the rest-frame optical band at redshifts . We do not find any correlation between BAL trough properties and the H-based supermassive black hole masses and normalized accretion rates in our sample. Considering the Sloan Digital Sky Survey quasar sample, which includes the GNIRS-DQS sample, we find that a monochromatic luminosity at rest-frame 2500 A of erg s is a necessary condition for launching BAL outflows in quasars. We compare our findings with other BAL quasar samples and discuss the roles that accretion rate and orientation play in the appearance of BAL troughs in quasar spectra.

Verifying the fully kinematic nature of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) dipole is of fundamental importance in cosmology. In the standard cosmological model with the Friedman-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) metric from the inflationary expansion the CMB dipole should be entirely kinematic. Any non-kinematic CMB dipole component would thus reflect the preinflationary structure of spacetime probing the extent of the FLRW applicability. Cosmic backgrounds from galaxies after the matter-radiation decoupling, should have kinematic dipole component identical in velocity with the CMB kinematic dipole. Comparing the two can lead to isolating the CMB non-kinematic dipole. It was recently proposed that such measurement can be done using the near-IR cosmic infrared background (CIB) measured with the currently operating Euclid telescope, and later with Roman. The proposed method reconstructs the resolved CIB, the Integrated Galaxy Light (IGL), from Euclid's Wide Survey and probes its dipole, with a kinematic component amplified over that of the CMB by the Compton-Getting effect. The amplification coupled with the extensive galaxy samples forming the IGL would determine the CIB dipole with an overwhelming signal/noise, isolating its direction to sub-degree accuracy. We develop details of the method for Euclid's Wide Survey in 4 bands spanning 0.6 to 2 mic. We isolate the systematic and other uncertainties and present methodologies to minimize them, after confining the sample to the magnitude range with negligible IGL/CIB dipole from galaxy clustering. These include the required star-galaxy separation, accounting for …

The measurement of hard scatterings in proton-nucleus collisions has resulted in a greater understanding of both the proton and nuclear structure. ATLAS measured the centrality dependence of the dijet yield using 165 nb of +Pb data collected at = 8.16 TeV in 2016. The event centrality, which reflects the +Pb impact parameter, is characterized by the total transverse energy registered in the Pb-going side of the forward calorimeter. The central-to-peripheral ratio of the scaled dijet yields, , is evaluated, and the results are presented as a function of variables that reflect the kinematics of the initial hard parton scattering process. The shows a scaling with the Bjorken- of the parton originating from the proton, , while no such trend is observed as a function of .

This paper presents for the first time a precise measurement of the production properties of the Z boson in the full phase space of the decay leptons. This is in contrast to the many previous precise unfolded measurements performed in the fiducial phase space of the decay leptons. The measurement is obtained from proton–proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2012 at TeV at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.2 fb. The results, based on a total of 15.3 million Z-boson decays to electron and muon pairs, extend and improve a previous measurement of the full set of angular coefficients describing Z-boson decay. The double-differential cross-section distributions in Z-boson transverse momentum  and rapidity  are measured in the pole region, defined as GeV, over the range .

This Letter reports the observation of W Z γ production and a measurement of its cross section using 140.1±1.2 fb− 1 of proton-proton collision data recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The W Z γ production cross section, with both the W and Z bosons decaying leptonically, p p→ W Z γ→ ℓ′±ν ℓ+ ℓ− γ (ℓ (′)= e, μ), is measured in a fiducial phase-space region defined such that the leptons and the photon have high transverse momentum and the photon is isolated. The cross section is found to be 2.01±0.30 (stat)±0.16 (syst) fb. The corresponding standard model predicted cross section calculated at next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics and at leading order in the electroweak coupling constant is 1.50±0.06 fb. The observed significance of the W Z γ signal is 6.3 σ, compared with an expected significance of 5.0 σ.

We present JWST/NIRSpec integral field data of the quasar PJ308-21 at . As shown by previous ALMA and HST imaging, the quasar has two companion sources, interacting with the quasar host galaxy. The high-resolution G395H/290LP NIRSpec spectrum covers the wavelength range and shows the rest-frame optical emission of the quasar with exquisite quality ( per spectral element). Based on the H line from the broad line region, we obtain an estimate of the black hole mass . This value is within a factor of the H-based black hole mass from the same spectrum () and is consistent with a previous estimate relying on the MgII (). All these are within the dex intrinsic scatter of the adopted mass calibrations. The high Eddington ratio of PJ308-21 () is in line with the overall quasar population at . The relative strengths of the [OIII], FeII and H lines are consistent with the empirical "Eigenvector 1" correlations as observed for low redshift quasars. We find evidence for blueshifted [OIII] emission with a velocity offset km s from the systemic velocity and a km s. This may be the signature of an outflow from the nuclear region, despite the true values of and are likely more uncertain due to the blending with H and FeII lines. Our study demonstrates the unique capabilities of NIRSpec in capturing quasar spectra at cosmic dawn and studying their properties in unprecedented detail.

This work presents the case for a single-band LSST-matched depth Roman Community Survey over the footprint of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Wide-Fast-Deep to enhance the key science programs of both missions. We propose to observe the ~18K sq deg LSST Wide-Fast-Deep footprint in the F146 filter to mAB~25; this will take approximately 5 months of Roman observing time. The combination of the multiwavelength nature of LSST and angular resolution of Roman would lead to enhanced scientific returns for both the Roman and LSST surveys. Galaxy deblending and crowded field photometry will be significantly improved. The extension of Rubin LSST six-band optical photometry to IR wavelengths would improve photometric redshift (photo-z) estimation, leading to improved cosmological parameter estimation, penetrate interstellar dust in the Galactic plane, improve differential chromatic refraction derived Spectral Energy Distributions, maximize galaxy-star separation and minimize crowding confusion through improved angular resolution. Conversely, the LSST survey will provide a time-domain extension of the Roman survey on the shared footprint and 6-band optical photometry with sensitivity extending all the way to ultraviolet wavelengths.

The first evidence for the Higgs boson decay to a Z boson and a photon is presented, with a statistical significance of 3.4 standard deviations. The result is derived from a combined analysis of the searches performed by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations with proton-proton collision datasets collected at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) from 2015 to 2018. These correspond to integrated luminosities of around 140 fb− 1 for each experiment, at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The measured signal yield is 2.2±0.7 times the standard model prediction, and agrees with the theoretical expectation within 1.9 standard deviations.

We measure proton structure parameters sensitive primarily to valence quarks using 8.6 fb− 1 of data collected by the D0 detector in√ s= 1.96 TeV pp collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron. We exploit the property of the forward-backward asymmetry in dilepton events to be factorized into distinct structure parameters and electroweak quark-level asymmetries. Contributions to the asymmetry from s, c and b quarks, as well as from u and d sea quarks, are suppressed allowing valence u and d quarks to be separately determined. We find an u to d quark ratio near the peak values in the quark density distributions that is smaller than predictions from modern parton distribution functions.The forward-backward asymmetry, AFB, in dilepton production at hadron colliders is due to parity violation in the electroweak interaction but also depends upon the hadron’s partonic structure [1–4]. Although many observables depend upon the experimentally indistinguishable contributions from different quark flavors, AFB has the capability to provide information on specific quarks. Contributions to AFB from the s, c and b quarks are significantly suppressed because the quark and antiquark densities are nearly the same and thus AFB predominately depends on u and d quark densities. Moreover, the asymmetries for uu and d d initial states depend differently on the dilepton mass (M), offering the possibility to obtain u and d quark densities individually. Recent analyses [5, 6] show that AFB can be factorized into sep-

We present ALMA [C ii] line and far-infrared (FIR) continuum observations of three low-luminosity quasars ( mag) discovered by our Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey. The [C ii] line was detected in all three targets with luminosities of , about one order of magnitude smaller than optically luminous ( mag) quasars. The FIR continuum luminosities range from (3  limit) to , indicating a wide range in star formation rates in these galaxies. Most of the HSC quasars studied thus far show [C ii]/ FIR luminosity ratios similar to local star-forming galaxies. Using the [C ii]-based dynamical mass () as a surrogate for bulge stellar mass (), we find that a significant fraction of low-luminosity quasars are located on or even below the local – relation, particularly at the massive end of the galaxy mass distribution.

The need for large-scale production of highly accurate simulated event samples for the extensive physics programme of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider motivates the development of new simulation techniques. Building on the recent success of deep learning algorithms, variational autoencoders and generative adversarial networks are investigated for modelling the response of the central region of the ATLAS electromagnetic calorimeter to photons of various energies. The properties of synthesised showers are compared with showers from a full detector simulation using geant4. Both variational autoencoders and generative adversarial networks are capable of quickly simulating electromagnetic showers with correct total energies and stochasticity, though the modelling of some shower shape distributions requires more refinement. This feasibility study demonstrates the potential of using such algorithms for ATLAS fast calorimeter simulation in the future and shows a possible way to complement current simulation techniques.

A search for quantum black holes in electron+ jet and muon+ jet invariant mass spectra is performed with 140 fb− 1 of data collected by the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at s= 13 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The observed invariant mass spectrum of lepton+ jet pairs is consistent with Standard Model expectations. Upper limits are set at 95% confidence level on the production cross section times branching fractions for quantum black holes decaying into a lepton and a quark in a search region with invariant mass above 2.0 TeV. The resulting quantum black hole lower mass threshold limit is 9.2 TeV in the Arkani-Hamed-Dimopoulos-Dvali model, and 6.8 TeV in the Randall-Sundrum model.

We present JWST/NIRSpec fixed slit spectra of 10 z~ 6 low-luminosity quasars and their host galaxies from the HSC SHELLQs sample. By modelling and subtracting the point-source quasar profiles from the 2D spectra, we reveal extended emission to at least 3 kpc from the quasar's host galaxy. Of the 10 extracted spectra, 7 show extended emission from the [OIII] 4959/5007 doublet and/or Balmer lines, and at least two sources show evidence of an extended stellar continuum. We present analysis of these extended spectra, inferring host galaxy properties and comparing to hosts of low-luminosity quasars at lower redshifts.

This paper presents the electron and photon energy calibration obtained with the ATLAS detector using 140 fb of LHC proton-proton collision data recorded at TeV between 2015 and 2018. Methods for the measurement of electron and photon energies are outlined, along with the current knowledge of the passive material in front of the ATLAS electromagnetic calorimeter. The energy calibration steps are discussed in detail, with emphasis on the improvements introduced in this paper. The absolute energy scale is set using a large sample of -boson decays into electron-positron pairs, and its residual dependence on the electron energy is used for the first time to further constrain systematic uncertainties. The achieved calibration uncertainties are typically 0.05% for electrons from resonant -boson decays, 0.4% at GeV, and 0.3% at TeV; for photons at GeV, they are 0.2% on average. This is more than twice as precise as the previous calibration. The new energy calibration is validated using and radiative -boson decays.

The production of a W boson in association with a single charm quark is studied using 140 fb− 1 of s= 13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The charm quark is tagged by the presence of a charmed hadron reconstructed with a secondary-vertex fit. The W boson is reconstructed from the decay to either an electron or a muon and the missing transverse momentum present in the event. The charmed mesons reconstructed are D+→ K− π+ π+ and D*+→ D 0 π+→(K− π+) π+ and the charge conjugate decays in the fiducial regions where p T (e, μ)> 30 GeV,| η (e, μ)|< 2.5, p T (D (*))> 8 GeV, and| η (D (*))|< 2.2. The integrated and normalized differential cross sections as a function of the pseudorapidity of the lepton from the W boson decay, and of the transverse momentum of the charmed hadron, are extracted from the data using a profile likelihood fit. The measured total fiducial cross sections are σ fid OS–SS (W−+ D+)= 50.2±0.2 (stat)− 2.3+ 2.4 (syst) pb, σ fid OS–SS (W++ D−)= 48.5±0.2 (stat)− 2.2+ 2.3 (syst) pb, σ fid OS–SS (W−+ D*+)= 51.1±0.4 (stat)− 1.8+ 1.9 (syst) pb, and σ fid OS–SS (W++ D*−)= 50.0±0.4 (stat)− 1.8+ 1.9 (syst) pb. Results are compared with the predictions of next-to-leading-order quantum chromodynamics calculations performed using state-of-the-art parton distribution functions. Additionally, the ratio of charm to anticharm production cross sections is studied to probe the s− s quark asymmetry. The ratio is found to be R c±= 0.971±0.006 (stat)±0.011 (syst). The ratio and cross-section measurements are consistent with the predictions obtained with parton distribution …

Quasars at z≳ 1 most often have redshifts measured from rest-frame ultraviolet emission lines. One of the most common such lines, C iv λ1549, shows blueshifts up to≈ 5000 km s− 1 and in rare cases even higher. This blueshifting results in highly uncertain redshifts when compared to redshift determinations from rest-frame optical emission lines, eg, from the narrow [O iii] λ5007 feature. We present spectroscopic measurements for 260 sources at 1.55≲ z≲ 3.50 having− 28.0≲ M i≲− 30.0 mag from the Gemini Near Infrared Spectrograph–Distant Quasar Survey (GNIRS-DQS) catalog, augmenting the previous iteration, which contained 226 of the 260 sources whose measurements are improved upon in this work. We obtain reliable systemic redshifts based on [O iii] λ5007 for a subset of 121 sources, which we use to calibrate prescriptions for correcting UV-based redshifts.

The correlations between flow harmonics for , 3 and 4 and mean transverse momentum in Xe+Xe and Pb+Pb collisions at TeV and 5.02 TeV, respectively, are measured using charged particles with the ATLAS detector. The correlations are sensitive to the shape and size of the initial geometry, nuclear deformation, and initial momentum anisotropy. The effects from non-flow and centrality fluctuations are minimized, respectively, via a subevent cumulant method and event activity selection based on particle production in the very forward rapidity. The results show strong dependences on centrality, harmonic number , and pseudorapidity range. Current models describe qualitatively the overall centrality- and system-dependent trends but fail to quantitatively reproduce all the data. In the central collisions, where models generally show good agreement, the - correlations are sensitive to the triaxiality of the quadruple deformation. The comparison of model to the Pb+Pb and Xe+Xe data suggests that the Xe nucleus is a highly deformed triaxial ellipsoid that is neither a prolate nor an oblate shape. This provides strong evidence for a triaxial deformation of Xe nucleus using high-energy heavy-ion collision.

This paper describes a search for dark photons (γ d) in proton-proton collisions at= 13 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The dark photons are searched for in the decay of Higgs bosons (H→ γγ d) produced through the ZH production mode. The transverse mass of the system, made of the photon and the missing transverse momentum from the non-interacting γ d, presents a distinctive signature as it peaks near the Higgs boson mass. The results presented use the total Run-2 integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1 recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The dominant reducible background processes are estimated using data-driven techniques. A Boosted Decision Tree technique is adopted to enhance the sensitivity of the search. As no excess is observed with respect to the Standard Model prediction, an observed (expected) upper limit on the branching ratio BR (H→ γγ d) of 2.28%() is set at 95 …

We present the final results of our search for new Milky Way (MW) satellites using the data from the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program (SSP) survey over deg. In addition to three candidates that we already reported, we have identified two new MW satellite candidates in the constellation of Sextans at a heliocentric distance of kpc, and Virgo at kpc, named Sextans II and Virgo III, respectively. Their luminosities (Sext II:mag; Vir III:mag) and half-light radii (Sext II: pc; Vir III: pc) place them in the region of size-luminosity space of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs). Including four previously known satellites, there are a total of nine satellites in the HSC-SSP footprint. This discovery rate of UFDs is much higher than that predicted from the recent models for the expected population of MW satellites in the framework of cold dark matter models, thereby suggesting that we encounter a too many satellites problem. Possible solutions to settle this tension are also discussed.

This paper presents a study of Higgs boson production in association with a vector boson (V = W or Z) in the fully hadronic $qqbb$ final state using data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb$^{-1}$. The vector bosons and Higgs bosons are each reconstructed as large-radius jets and tagged using jet substructure techniques. Dedicated tagging algorithms exploiting $b$-tagging properties are used to identify jets consistent with Higgs bosons decaying into $b\bar{b}$. Dominant backgrounds from multijet production are determined directly from the data, and a likelihood fit to the jet mass distribution of Higgs boson candidates is used to extract the number of signal events. The VH production cross section is measured inclusively and differentially in several ranges of Higgs boson transverse momentum: 250-450, 450--650, and greater than 650 GeV. The inclusive signal yield relative to the Standard Model expectation is observed to be $\mu = 1.4 ^{+1.0}_{-0.9}$ and the corresponding cross section is $3.1 \pm 1.3\, (stat.)\: ^{+1.8}_{-1.4}\, (syst.$) pb.

The observation of single top quark production in association with a Z boson and a quark (tZq) is reported. Events from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV containing three charged leptons (either electrons or muons) and at least two jets are analyzed. The data were collected with the CMS detector in 2016 and 2017 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 77.4fb(-1). The increased integrated luminosity, a multivariate lepton identification, and a redesigned analysis strategy improve significantly the sensitivity of the analysis compared to previous searches for tZq production. The tZq signal is observed with a significance well over 5 standard deviations. The measured tZq production cross section is sigma(pp -> tZq -> tl(+) l(-) q) = 111 +/- 13 (stat)(-9)(+11) (syst) fb, for dilepton invariant masses above 30 GeV, in agreement with the standard model expectation.

Characterizing the physical conditions (density, temperature, ionization state, metallicity, etc) of the interstellar medium is critical to improving our understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxies. In this work, we present a multi-line study of the interstellar medium in the host galaxy of a quasar at z ≈ 6.4, that is, when the universe was 840 Myr old. This galaxy is one of the most active and massive objects emerging from the dark ages and therefore represents a benchmark for models of the early formation of massive galaxies. We used the Atacama Large Millimeter Array to target an ensemble of tracers of ionized, neutral, and molecular gas, namely the following fine-structure lines: [O III] 88 μm, [N II] 122 μm, [C II] 158 μm, and [C I] 370 μm – as well as the rotational transitions of CO(7–6), CO(15–14), CO(16–15), and CO(19–18); OH 163.1 μm and 163.4 μm; along with H2O 3(0,3)–2(1,2), 3(3,1)–4(0,4), 3 …

The top quark pair production cross section is measured in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV. The data were collected in a special LHC low-energy and low-intensity run in 2017, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 302 pb− 1. The measurement is performed using events with one electron and one muon of opposite charge, and at least two jets. The measured cross section is 60. 7±5. 0 (stat)±2. 8 (syst)±1. 1 (lumi) pb. A combination with the result in the single lepton+ jets channel, based on data collected in 2015 at the same center-of-mass energy and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 27.4 pb− 1, is then performed. The resulting measured value is 63. 0±4. 1 (stat)±3. 0 (syst+ lumi) pb, in agreement with the standard model prediction of pb.

Studies of the correlations of the two highest transverse momentum (leading) jets in individual Pb+ Pb collision events can provide information about the mechanism of jet quenching by the hot and dense matter created in such collisions. In Pb+ Pb and p p collisions at s N N= 5.02 TeV, measurements of the leading dijet transverse momentum (p T) correlations are presented. Additionally, measurements in Pb+ Pb collisions of the dijet pair nuclear modification factors projected along leading and subleading jet p T are made. The measurements are performed using the ATLAS detector at the LHC with 260 pb− 1 of p p data collected in 2017 and 2.2 nb− 1 of Pb+ Pb data collected in 2015 and 2018. An unfolding procedure is applied to the two-dimensional leading and subleading jet p T distributions to account for experimental effects in the measurement of both jets. Results are provided for dijets with leading jet p T …

A search for new phenomena has been performed in final states with at least one isolated high-momentum photon, jets and missing transverse momentum in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of= 13 TeV. The data, collected by the ATLAS experiment at the CERN LHC, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1. The experimental results are interpreted in a supersymmetric model in which pair-produced gluinos decay into neutralinos, which in turn decay into a gravitino, at least one photon, and jets. No significant deviations from the predictions of the Standard Model are observed. Upper limits are set on the visible cross section due to physics beyond the Standard Model, and lower limits are set on the masses of the gluinos and neutralinos, all at 95% confidence level.

We report the distribution of black hole (BH) masses and Eddingont ratios estimated for a sample of 131 low luminosity quasars in the early cosmic epoch (). Our work is based on Subaru High- Exploration of Low-Luminosity Quasars (SHELLQs) project, which has constructed a low luminosity quasar sample down to mag, exploiting the survey data of Hyper Suprime-Cam installed on Subaru Telescope. The discovery spectra of these quasars are limited to the rest-frame wavelengths of 1200 -- 1400 \AA, which contains no emission lines that can be used as BH mass estimators. In order to overcome this problem, we made use of low- counterpart spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, which are spectrally matched to the high- spectra in overlapping wavelengths. We then combined the C~{\sc iv} emission line widths of the counterparts with the continuum luminosity from the SHELLQs data to estimate BH masses. The resulting BH mass distribution has a range of , with most of the quasars having BH masses with sub-Eddington accretion. The present study provides not only a new insight into normal quasars in the reionization epoch, but also a new promising way to estimate BH masses of high- quasars without near-infrared spectroscopy.

Weak emission-line quasars (WLQs) are a subset of type 1 quasars that exhibit extremely weak Lyα+ N v λ1240 and/or C iv λ1549 emission lines. We investigate the relationship between emission-line properties and accretion rate for a sample of 230" ordinary" type 1 quasars and 18 WLQs at z< 0.5 and 1.5< z< 3.5 that have rest-frame ultraviolet and optical spectral measurements. We apply a correction to the Hβ-based black hole mass (M BH) estimates of these quasars using the strength of the optical Fe ii emission. We confirm previous findings that WLQs' M BH values are overestimated by up to an order of magnitude using the traditional broad-emission-line region size–luminosity relation. With this M BH correction, we find a significant correlation between Hβ-based Eddington luminosity ratios and a combination of the rest-frame C iv equivalent width and C iv blueshift with respect to the systemic redshift.

Dust extinction often hides a quasar's central engine and broad line region. Thus obscured, or Type 2 quasars, are characterized by narrow emission lines emitted from larger scales. However, if the dust extinction is modest, it will allow broad lines to shine through at relatively long wavelengths. In such an object, one observes narrow lines on the blue end of the spectrum and broad lines on the red end. We have discovered a class of objects in which we observe this trend in reverse. Using spectroscopic data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the catalog of emission-line properties from Rakshit et al.(2020), we have searched through hundreds of thousands of quasars. We have identified at least 26 quasars with redshifts between 0.5 and 1, in which we observe a broad Mg-II line (rest frame 2800Å) and narrow H-beta (rest frame 4861Å). We present the sample and describe the characteristics of the quasars, and …

The large-radius jets are reconstructed with the anti- algorithm using a radius parameter of , by re-clustering anti- jets, and are measured over the transverse momentum () kinematic range of GeV and absolute pseudorapidity . The large-radius jet constituents are further re-clustered using the algorithm in order to obtain the splitting parameters, and , which characterize the transverse momentum scale and angular separation for the hardest splitting in the jet, respectively. The nuclear modification factor, , obtained by comparing the Pb+Pb jet yields to those in collisions, is measured as a function of jet transverse momentum () and or . A significant difference in the quenching of large-radius jets having single sub-jet and those with more complex substructure is observed. Systematic comparison of jet suppression in terms of for different jet definitions is also provided. Presented results support the hypothesis that jets with hard internal splittings lose more energy through quenching and provide a new perspective for understanding the role of jet structure in jet suppression.

A search is presented for displaced production of Higgs bosons or bosons, originating from the decay of a neutral long-lived particle (LLP) and reconstructed in the decay modes and . The analysis uses the full Run 2 data set of protonproton collisions delivered by the LHC at an energy of TeV between 2015 and 2018 and recorded by the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb. Exploiting the capabilities of the ATLAS liquid argon calorimeter to precisely measure the arrival times and trajectories of electromagnetic objects, the analysis searches for the signature of pairs of photons or electrons which arise from a common displaced vertex and which arrive after some delay at the calorimeter. The results are interpreted in a gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking model with pair-produced higgsinos that decay to LLPs, and each LLP subsequently decays into either a Higgs boson or a boson. The final state includes at least two particles that escape direct detection, giving rise to missing transverse momentum. No significant excess is observed above the background expectation. The results are used to set upper limits on the cross section for higgsino pair production, up to a mass of 369 (704) GeV for decays with 100% branching ratio of to Higgs () bosons for a lifetime of 2 ns. A model-independent limit is also set on the production of pairs of photons or electrons with a significant delay in arrival at the calorimeter.

A search is presented for a heavy resonance Y decaying into a Standard Model Higgs boson H and a new particle X in a fully hadronic final state. The full Large Hadron Collider run 2 dataset of proton-proton collisions at s= 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector from 2015 to 2018 is used and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1. The search targets the high Y-mass region, where the H and X have a significant Lorentz boost in the laboratory frame. A novel application of anomaly detection is used to define a general signal region, where events are selected solely because of their incompatibility with a learned background-only model. It is constructed using a jet-level tagger for signal-model-independent selection of the boosted X particle, representing the first application of fully unsupervised machine learning to an ATLAS analysis. Two additional signal regions are implemented to target a benchmark X decay into two quarks, covering topologies where the X is reconstructed as either a single large-radius jet or two small-radius jets. The analysis selects Higgs boson decays into b b, and a dedicated neural-network-based tagger provides sensitivity to the boosted heavy-flavor topology. No significant excess of data over the expected background is observed, and the results are presented as upper limits on the production cross section σ (p p→ Y→ X H→ q q b b) for signals with m Y between 1.5 and 6 TeV and m X between 65 and 3000 GeV.

The detection of starlight from the host galaxies of quasars during the reionization epoch (z > 6) has been elusive, even with deep Hubble Space Telescope observations,. The current highest redshift quasar host detected, at z = 4.5, required the magnifying effect of a foreground lensing galaxy. Low-luminosity quasars, – from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (HSC-SSP) mitigate the challenge of detecting their underlying, previously undetected host galaxies. Here we report rest-frame optical images and spectroscopy of two HSC-SSP quasars at z > 6 with the JWST. Using near-infrared camera imaging at 3.6 and 1.5 μm and subtracting the light from the unresolved quasars, we find that the host galaxies are massive (stellar masses of 13 × and 3.4 × 1010 M☉, respectively), compact and disc-like. Near-infrared spectroscopy at medium resolution shows stellar absorption lines in the …

Obscured quasars in the epoch of reionization (EoR) are a key population to fully understand the initial growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs). While very few candidates have been reported to date, models and observations suggest that such objects are prevalent in the high-z (z> 6) universe, and that the> 300 known UV-luminous quasars may represent just a small portion of the early SMBH growth. Recently, an unprecedentedly wide-and-deep survey with Subaru HSC has uncovered a new population of high-z galaxies showing extremely luminous Ly-alpha emission, with clearly distinct properties from any known types of objects in the EoR. Near-IR spectroscopy with ground-based 8-10m telescopes and Chandra X-ray observations have revealed a hint of hidden quasar activity in some of these galaxies, but their nature still remains inconclusive. Here we propose an ambitious NIRSpec program to carry …

This Letter reports the observation of τ-lepton pair production in ultraperipheral lead-lead collisions, Pb+Pb→Pb(γγ→ττ)Pb, and constraints on the τ-lepton anomalous magnetic moment, aτ. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1.44 nb-1 of LHC Pb+Pb collisions at =5.02 TeV recorded by the ATLAS experiment in 2018. Selected events contain one muon from a τ-lepton decay, an electron or charged-particle track(s) from the other τ-lepton decay, little additional central-detector activity, and no forward neutrons. The γγ→ττ process is observed in Pb+Pb collisions with a significance exceeding 5 standard deviations, and a signal strength of μττ=1.03 assuming the Standard Model value for aτ. To measure aτ, a template fit to the muon transverse-momentum distribution from τ-lepton candidates is performed, using a dimuon (γγ→μμ) control sample to constrain systematic uncertainties. The observed 95% confidence-level interval for aτ is -0.057 < aτ < 0.024.

A test of C P invariance in Higgs boson production via vector-boson fusion has been performed in the H→ γ γ channel using 139 fb− 1 of proton-proton collision data at s= 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The optimal observable method is used to probe the C P structure of interactions between the Higgs boson and electroweak gauge bosons, as described by an effective field theory. No sign of C P violation is observed in the data. Constraints are set on the parameters describing the strength of the C P-odd component in the coupling between the Higgs boson and the electroweak gauge bosons in two effective field theory bases: d in the HISZ basis and c H Win the Warsaw basis. The results presented are the most stringent constraints on C P violation in the coupling between Higgs and weak bosons. The 95% CL constraint on d is derived for the first time and the 95% CL constraint on c H Whas been improved by a factor of 5 compared to the previous measurement.

We present the quasar luminosity function (LF) at z= 7, measured with 35 spectroscopically confirmed quasars at 6.55< z< 7.15. The sample of 22 quasars from the Subaru High-z Exploration of Low-Luminosity Quasars (SHELLQs) project, combined with 13 brighter quasars in the literature, covers an unprecedentedly wide range of rest-frame ultraviolet magnitudes over− 28< M 1450<− 23. We found that the binned LF flattens significantly toward the faint end populated by the SHELLQs quasars. A maximum likelihood fit to a double power-law model has a break magnitude , a characteristic density Gpc− 3 mag− 1, and a bright-end slope , when the faint-end slope is fixed to α=− 1.2 as observed at z≤ 6. The overall LF shape remains remarkably similar from z= 4 to 7, while the amplitude decreases substantially toward higher redshifts, with a clear indication of an …

A search for diphoton resonances in the mass range between 10 and 70 GeV with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is presented. The analysis is based on pp collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb− 1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded from 2015 to 2018. Previous searches for diphoton resonances at the LHC have explored masses down to 65 GeV, finding no evidence of new particles. This search exploits the particular kinematics of events with pairs of closely spaced photons reconstructed in the detector, allowing examination of invariant masses down to 10 GeV. The presented strategy covers a region previously unexplored at hadron colliders because of the experimental challenges of recording low-energy photons and estimating the backgrounds. No significant excess is observed and the reported limits provide the strongest bound on promptly …

We utilize the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (SDSS-BOSS) galaxies and its overlap with approximately 416 sq degrees of deep grizy-band imaging from the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey (HSC). We perform measurements of three two-point correlations which form the basis of the cosmological inference presented in our companion papers, Miyatake et al. and Sugiyama et al. We use three approximately volume limited subsamples of spectroscopic galaxies by their i-band magnitude from the SDSS-BOSS: LOWZ (0.1< z< 0.35), CMASS1 (0.43< z< 0.55) and CMASS2 (0.55< z< 0.7), respectively. We present high signal-to-noise ratio measurements of the projected correlation functions of these galaxies, which is expected to be proportional to the projected matter correlation function on large scales with a proportionality constant dependent on the bias of galaxies.

For a number of optical cluster-finding algorithms, the measured cluster center differs from the cluster's gas profile center~ 30% of the time; ie, it is" miscentered." This can be an important systematic effect for identification of the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) and for cluster lensing studies. We aim to determine whether this miscentering effect is primarily due to astrophysical effects (eg merging clusters) or to unaccounted for systematic effects in cluster-finding algorithms.

Measurements of single-, double-, and triple-differential cross-sections are presented for boosted top-quark pair-production in 13 TeV proton–proton collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The top quarks are observed through their hadronic decay and reconstructed as large-radius jets with the leading jet having transverse momentum (p T) greater than 500 GeV. The observed data are unfolded to remove detector effects. The particle-level cross-section, multiplied by the branching fraction and measured in a fiducial phase space defined by requiring the leading and second-leading jets to have p T> 500 GeV and p T> 350 GeV, respectively, is 331±3 (stat.)±39 (syst.) fb.

We propose NIRCam multiband observations of az= 6.4 quasar, the host starlight of which was clearly detected in a pilot study with NIRCam F150W+ F356W imaging and NIRSpec rest-optical spectroscopy. An eight-filter imaging spectrum of the high-redshift quasar host galaxy will cover from 1,400 to 6,730 angstrom in the rest frame. This rich photometric information enables us to robustly constrain the stellar mass and the stellar population for the first time at z> 6. The newly proposed six broad+ mediumband filters are carefully selected to capture the key features of a galaxy SED such as 4000 angstrom break. A 2D image-modeling technique will be used to subtract the glaring nuclear emission of the quasar from the images. The multiband detection of the quasar host will also be used to confirm a large quasar-galaxy spatial offset detected in the F150W image. We will also map out H-alpha emitting galaxies …

The vector-boson production cross section for the Higgs boson decay in the H→ W W*→ e ν μ ν channel is measured as a function of kinematic observables sensitive to the Higgs boson production and decay properties as well as integrated in a fiducial phase space. The analysis is performed using the proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector in Run 2 of the LHC at s= 13 TeV center-of-mass energy, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1. The different flavor final state is studied by selecting an electron and a muon originating from a pair of W bosons and compatible with the Higgs boson decay. The data are corrected for the effects of detector inefficiency and resolution, and the measurements are compared with different state-of-the-art theoretical predictions. The differential cross sections are used to constrain anomalous interactions described by dimension-six operators in an effective field theory.

Measurements of differential cross sections are presented for inclusive isolated-photon production in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV provided by the LHC and using 139 fb− 1 of data recorded by the ATLAS experiment. The cross sections are measured as functions of the photon transverse energy in different regions of photon pseudorapidity. The photons are required to be isolated by means of a fixed-cone method with two different cone radii. The dependence of the inclusive-photon production on the photon isolation is investigated by measuring the fiducial cross sections as functions of the isolation-cone radius and the ratios of the differential cross sections with different radii in different regions of photon pseudorapidity. The results presented in this paper constitute an improvement with respect to those published by ATLAS earlier: the measurements are provided for different isolation radii and …

This paper presents a search for hypothetical massive, charged, long-lived particles with the ATLAS detector at the LHC using an integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1 of proton–proton collisions at= 13 TeV. These particles are expected to move significantly slower than the speed of light and should be identifiable by their high transverse momenta and anomalously large specific ionisation losses, dE/dx. Trajectories reconstructed solely by the inner tracking system and ad E/dx measurement in the pixel detector layers provide sensitivity to particles with lifetimes down to(1) ns with a mass, measured using the Bethe–Bloch relation, ranging from 100 GeV to 3 TeV. Interpretations for pair-production of R-hadrons, charginos and staus in scenarios of supersymmetry compatible with these particles being long-lived are presented, with mass limits extending considerably beyond those from previous searches in broad …

The launch of JWST opens a new window for studying the connection between metal-line absorbers and galaxies at the end of the Epoch of Reionization. Previous studies have detected absorber–galaxy pairs in limited quantities through ground-based observations. To enhance our understanding of the relationship between absorbers and their host galaxies at z> 5, we utilized the NIRCam wide-field slitless spectroscopy to search for absorber-associated galaxies by detecting their rest-frame optical emission lines (eg,[O III]+ Hβ). We report the discovery of a Mg ii-associated galaxy at z= 5.428 using data from the JWST ASPIRE program. The Mg ii absorber is detected on the spectrum of quasar J0305–3150 with a rest-frame equivalent width of 0.74 Å. The associated galaxy has an [O III] luminosity of 10 42.5 erg s− 1 with an impact parameter of 24.9 pkpc. The joint Hubble Space Telescope–JWST spectral energy …

We perform a blinded cosmology analysis with cosmic shear two-point correlation functions measured from more than 25 million galaxies in the Hyper Suprime-Cam three-year shear catalog in four tomographic redshift bins ranging from 0.3 to 1.5. After conservative masking and galaxy selection, the survey covers 416 deg 2 of the northern sky with an effective galaxy number density of 15 arcmin− 2 over the four redshift bins. The 2PCFs adopted for cosmology analysis are measured in the angular range; 7.1< θ/arcmin< 56.6 for ξ+ and 31.2< θ/arcmin< 248 for ξ−, with a total signal-to-noise ratio of 26.6. We apply a conservative, wide, flat prior on the photometric redshift errors on the last two tomographic bins, and the relative magnitudes of the cosmic shear amplitude across four redshift bins allow us to calibrate the photometric redshift errors. With this flat prior on redshift errors, we find Ω m= 0.25 6− 0.044+ 0.056 …

We measure weak lensing cosmic shear power spectra from the Year 3 shape catalog of the Hyper Suprime-Cam survey. The shape catalog, prepared by Li et al. 2022, covers 433.48 square degrees of the northern sky, with a mean i band seeing of 0.59 arcsec and an effective galaxy number density of 19.9 arcmin-2. With an i band magnitude limit of 24.5 mag, and four tomographic redshift bins spanning 0.3< z< 1.5, we obtain a high-significance measurement of the cosmic shear power spectra, with a signal-to-noise ratio of approximately 30.5 in the multipole range 300< l< 1800. Moreover, our measurement of the B-mode signal in this same range is consistent with zero. The accuracy of our power spectrum measurement is tested against realistic mock shear catalogs, and we use these catalogs to get a reliable measurement of the covariance of the spectra. In addition to using a robust blinding procedure to avoid …

A measurement of the top quark pair-production cross section in the lepton + jets decay channel is presented. It is based on 4.6 fb - 1 of s = 7 TeV p p collision data collected during 2011 by the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. A three-class, multidimensional event classifier based on support vector machines is used to differentiate t t ¯ events from backgrounds. The t t ¯ production cross section is found to be σ t t ¯ = 168.5 ± 0.7 ( stat ) - 5.9 + 6.2 ( syst ) - 3.2 + 3.4 ( lumi ) pb . The result is consistent with the Standard Model prediction based on QCD calculations at next-to-next-to-leading order.

A search for a charged Higgs boson, , produced in top-quark decays, , is presented. The search targets decays into a bottom and a charm quark, . The analysis focuses on a selection enriched in top-quark pair production, where one top quark decays into a leptonically decaying boson and a bottom quark, and the other top quark decays into a charged Higgs boson and a bottom quark. This topology leads to a lepton-plus-jets final state, characterised by an isolated electron or muon and at least four jets. The search exploits the high multiplicity of jets containing -hadrons, and deploys a neural network classifier that uses the kinematic differences between the signal and the background. The search uses a dataset of proton-proton collisions collected at a centre-of-mass energy TeV between 2015 and 2018 with the ATLAS detector at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, amounting to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb. Observed (expected) 95% confidence-level upper limits between 0.15% (0.09%) and 0.42% (0.25%) are derived for the product of branching fractions for charged Higgs boson masses between 60 and 160 GeV, assuming the SM production of the top-quark pairs.

Theoretical models predict that the earliest billion-M_sun supermassive black holes (SMBHs) form from massive dark matter halos and trace the formation of protoclusters in the early Universe. We propose to study the two most extreme galaxy overdensities anchored by luminous quasars at z~ 6.6, discovered from JWST Cycle-1 observations of~ 20 quasar fields. Both systems show Mpc-scale filamentary structures with galaxy overdensity> 10, centered on the quasars. However, the existing observations consist of single NIRCam/WFSS pointings that do not yet cover the full protocluster structure and are limited to redshift measurements of luminous member galaxies.

Cosmological weak lensing measurements rely on a precise measurement of the shear two-point correlation function (2PCF) along with a deep understanding of systematics that affect it. In this work, we demonstrate a general framework for detecting and modelling the impact of PSF systematics on the cosmic shear 2PCF and mitigating its impact on cosmological analysis. Our framework can detect PSF leakage and modelling error from all spin-2 quantities contributed by the PSF second and higher moments, rather than just the second moments, using the cross-correlations between galaxy shapes and PSF moments. We interpret null tests using the HSC Year 3 (Y3) catalogs with this formalism and find that leakage from the spin-2 combination of PSF fourth moments is the leading contributor to additive shear systematics, with total contamination that is an order-of-magnitude higher than that contributed by PSF …

Higgs boson production is further characterized through measurements of Simplified Template Cross-Sections (STXS). In total, cross-sections of …

This paper presents a statistical combination of searches targeting final states with two top quarks and invisible particles, characterised by the presence of zero, one or two leptons, at least one jet originating from a b-quark and missing transverse momentum. The analyses are searches for phenomena beyond the Standard Model consistent with the direct production of dark matter in pp collisions at the LHC, using 139 fb of data collected with the ATLAS detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The results are interpreted in terms of simplified dark matter models with a spin-0 scalar or pseudoscalar mediator particle. In addition, the results are interpreted in terms of upper limits on the Higgs boson invisible branching ratio, where the Higgs boson is produced according to the Standard Model in association with a pair of top quarks. For scalar (pseudoscalar) dark matter models, with all couplings set to unity, the …

This Letter reports the observation of W Z γ production and a measurement of its cross section using 140.1±1.2 fb− 1 of proton-proton collision data recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The W Z γ production cross section, with both the W and Z bosons decaying leptonically, p p→ W Z γ→ ℓ′±ν ℓ+ ℓ− γ (ℓ (′)= e, μ), is measured in a fiducial phase-space region defined such that the leptons and the photon have high transverse momentum and the photon is isolated. The cross section is found to be 2.01±0.30 (stat)±0.16 (syst) fb. The corresponding standard model predicted cross section calculated at next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics and at leading order in the electroweak coupling constant is 1.50±0.06 fb. The observed significance of the W Z γ signal is 6.3 σ, compared with an expected significance of 5.0 σ.

A search for the charged-lepton-flavor-violating process Z→ e μ is presented, using 139 fb− 1 of s= 13 TeV p p collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. An excess in the e μ invariant mass spectrum near the Z boson mass would be a striking signature of new physics. No excess is observed, and an upper limit B (Z→ e μ)< 2.62× 10− 7 is placed on the branching fraction at 95% confidence level, which is the most stringent limit to date.

A longstanding question when studying Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) and their evolution is whether their luminosities are statistical extremes of the luminosity distribution of other cluster member galaxies, or whether their luminosities follow a different,“special” distribution. To explore this question, we use the two Tremaine–Richstone (TR) statistics that sometimes lead to different conclusions about BCG specialness. We run Monte Carlo simulations of galaxy clusters with varying galaxy luminosity functions and BCG properties, and explore the sensitivity of the TR statistics to the adjusted BCG properties. We identify cases where the two statistics lead to different conclusions. The first of the TR statistics, which relies on the spread of BCG luminosities, is more reliable for determining specialness than the second, which utilizes the spread in the luminosity gap between the BCG and second ranked galaxy.

A search for flavor-changing neutral-current couplings between a top quark, an up or charm quark, and a Z boson is presented, using proton–proton collision data at s= 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The analyzed data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1. The search targets both single-top-quark events produced as g q→ t Z (with q= u, c) and top-quark-pair events, with one top quark decaying through the t→ Z q channel. The analysis considers events with three leptons (electrons or muons), a b-tagged jet, possible additional jets, and missing transverse momentum. The data are found to be consistent with the background-only hypothesis and 95% confidence-level limits on the t→ Z q branching ratios, assuming only tensor operators of the Standard Model effective field theory framework contribute to the t Z q vertices. These are 6.2× 10− 5 (13× 10− 5) for t→ Z u (t→ Z c) for a left-handed t Z q coupling, and 6.6× 10− 5 (12× 10− 5) in the case of a right-handed coupling. These results are interpreted as 95% CL upper limits on the strength of the corresponding couplings, yielding limits for| C u W (13)*| and| C u B (13)*|(| C u W (31)| and| C u B (31)|) of 0.15 (0.16), and limits for| C u W (23)*| and| C u B (23)*|(| C u W (32)| and| C u B (32)|) of 0.22 (0.21), assuming a new-physics energy scale Λ NP of 1 TeV.

QSOs at the end of cosmic reionization are among the most luminous sources in the Universe. Their luminosity is produced by extreme gas accretion onto their central black holes, which grow by 20x in only 100Myr. Simultaneously, QSO host galaxies form hundreds of stars per year, using up gas in the process. Extensive VLT/MUSE observational campaigns recently revealed that z= 6.6 QSOs P323+ 12 and P231-20 are embed in exceptionally large (> 20pKpc) and luminous (L> 10^ 44 erg/s) Ly-Alpha nebulae. These are tracer of the enormous cool gas reservoirs that are required to continuously fuel the rapid build up of the earliest QSOs.

We present posterior sample redshift distributions for the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program Weak Lensing three-year (HSC Y3) analysis. Using the galaxies’ photometry and spatial cross-correlations, we conduct a combined Bayesian Hierarchical Inference of the sample redshift distributions. The spatial cross-correlations are derived using a subsample of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) with accurate redshift information available up to a photometric redshift of z < 1.2. We derive the photometry-based constraints using a combination of two empirical techniques calibrated on spectroscopic and multiband photometric data that cover a spatial subset of the shear catalogue. The limited spatial coverage induces a cosmic variance error budget that we include in the inference. Our cross-correlation analysis models the photometric redshift error of the LRGs to correct for systematic biases and statistical …

This Letter reports the observation of W W W production and a measurement of its cross section using 139 fb− 1 of proton-proton collision data recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Events with two same-sign leptons (electrons or muons) and at least two jets, as well as events with three charged leptons, are selected. A multivariate technique is then used to discriminate between signal and background events. Events from W W W production are observed with a significance of 8.0 standard deviations, where the expectation is 5.4 standard deviations. The inclusive W W W production cross section is measured to be 820±100 (stat)±80 (syst) fb, approximately 2.6 standard deviations from the predicted cross section of 511±18 fb calculated at next-to-leading-order QCD and leading-order electroweak accuracy.

Searches are performed for nonresonant and resonant di-Higgs boson production in the b b γ γ final state. The dataset used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1 of proton–proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. No excess above the expected background is found and upper limits on the di-Higgs boson production cross sections are set. A 95% confidence-level upper limit of 4.2 times the cross section predicted by the Standard Model is set on p p→ H H nonresonant production, where the expected limit is 5.7 times the Standard Model predicted value. The expected constraints are obtained for a background hypothesis excluding p p→ H H production. The observed (expected) constraints on the Higgs boson trilinear coupling modifier κ λ are determined to be [− 1.5, 6.7]([− 2.4, 7.7]) at 95% confidence level, where the …

The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider has a broad physics programme ranging from precision measurements to direct searches for new particles and new interactions, requiring ever larger and ever more accurate datasets of simulated Monte Carlo events. Detector simulation with Geant4 is accurate but requires significant CPU resources. Over the past decade, ATLAS has developed and utilized tools that replace the most CPU-intensive component of the simulation—the calorimeter shower simulation—with faster simulation methods. Here, AtlFast3, the next generation of high-accuracy fast simulation in ATLAS, is introduced. AtlFast3 combines parameterized approaches with machine-learning techniques and is deployed to meet current and future computing challenges, and simulation needs of the ATLAS experiment. With highly accurate performance and significantly improved modelling of …

We present cosmological parameter constraints from a blinded joint analysis of galaxy-galaxy weak lensing, Δ Σ (R), and the projected correlation function, w p (R), measured from the first-year HSC (HSC-Y1) data and SDSS spectroscopic galaxies over 0.15< z< 0.7. We use luminosity-limited samples as lens samples for Δ Σ and as large-scale structure tracers for w p in three redshift bins, and use the HSC-Y1 galaxy catalog to define a secure sample of source galaxies at z ph> 0.75 for the Δ Σ measurements, selected based on their photometric redshifts. As a theoretical template, we use the “minimal bias” model for the cosmological clustering observables for the flat Λ CDM cosmological model. We compare the model predictions with the measurements in each redshift bin on large scales, R> 12 and 8 h− 1 Mpc for Δ Σ (R) and w p (R), respectively, where the perturbation-theory-inspired model is valid.

A direct search for Higgs bosons produced via vector-boson fusion and subsequently decaying into invisible particles is reported. The analysis uses 139 fb− 1 of pp collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of= 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The observed numbers of events are found to be in agreement with the background expectation from Standard Model processes. For a scalar Higgs boson with a mass of 125 GeV and a Standard Model production cross section, an observed upper limit of 0. 145 is placed on the branching fraction of its decay into invisible particles at 95% confidence level, with an expected limit of 0. 103. These results are interpreted in the context of models where the Higgs boson acts as a portal to dark matter, and limits are set on the scattering cross section of weakly interacting massive particles and nucleons.

Search for displaced photons produced in exotic decays of the Higgs boson using 13 TeV collisions with the ATLAS detector

A search is performed for delayed and nonpointing photons originating from the displaced decay of a neutral long-lived particle (LLP). The analysis uses the full Run 2 data set of proton-proton collisions delivered by the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of TeV between 2015 and 2018 and recorded by the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb. The capabilities of the ATLAS electromagnetic calorimeter are exploited to precisely measure the arrival times and trajectories of photons. The results are interpreted in a scenario where the LLPs are pair-produced in exotic decays of the 125 GeV Higgs boson, and each LLP subsequently decays into a photon and a particle that escapes direct detection, giving rise to missing transverse momentum. No significant excess is observed above the expectation due to Standard Model background processes. The results are used to set upper limits on the branching ratio of the exotic decay of the Higgs boson. A model-independent limit is also set on the production of photons with large values of displacement and time delay.

The accurate simulation of additional interactions at the ATLAS experiment for the analysis of proton–proton collisions delivered by the Large Hadron Collider presents a significant challenge to the computing resources. During the LHC Run 2 (2015–2018), there were up to 70 inelastic interactions per bunch crossing, which need to be accounted for in Monte Carlo (MC) production. In this document, a new method to account for these additional interactions in the simulation chain is described. Instead of sampling the inelastic interactions and adding their energy deposits to a hard-scatter interaction one-by-one, the inelastic interactions are presampled, independent of the hard scatter, and stored as combined events. Consequently, for each hard-scatter interaction, only one such presampled event needs to be added as part of the simulation chain. For the Run 2 simulation chain, with an average of 35 interactions per …

Heavy-flavour hadron production provides information about the transport properties and microscopic structure of the quark–gluon plasma created in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions.

Prime Focus Spectrograph is a state-of-the-art multifiber spectrograph being installed on the Subaru telescope. High-quality sky subtraction is of crucial importance for its successful operation. Here we describe the status of the development of modeling algorithms for point spread function determination and subtraction of skylines. Defocused data taken with dedicated lamps allows us to determine the illumination properties of individual fibers, and to determine wavefront aberrations that are present in the instrument. Based on those inputs, we are able to model the point spread function in 2D and achieve sub 1% subtraction quality for significant parts of the wavelength range covered by the available data.

The existence of high-redshift supermassive black holes (SMBHs)--shining brightly as quasars during the first billion years of our universe--presents a conundrum in astrophysics. A broad variety of physical mechanisms have been proposed for the formation and rapid growth of these early SMBHs. Promising diagnostics are the relative properties of the black hole and its host galaxy. However, up to now, the detection of stars in quasar host galaxies has been elusive beyond , even with deep HST observations. Here, we report the first detections of the stellar component of the host galaxies of two relatively low-luminosity quasars at observed with JWST using NIRCam. After modeling and subtracting the glare from the quasar itself, we find that the host galaxies are massive (stellar mass of and M ), compact, and disk-like. Unlike most SMBHs in the nearby universe, these quasars are displaced from the …

Strong constraints on jet quenching in centrality-dependent +Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV from ATLAS

Jet quenching is the process of color-charged partons losing energy via interactions with quark-gluon plasma droplets created in heavy-ion collisions. The collective expansion of such droplets is well described by viscous hydrodynamics. Similar evidence of collectivity is consistently observed in smaller collision systems, including and +Pb collisions. In contrast, while jet quenching is observed in Pb+Pb collisions, no evidence has been found in these small systems to date, raising fundamental questions about the nature of the system created in these collisions. The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider has measured the yield of charged hadrons correlated with reconstructed jets in 0.36 nb of +Pb and 3.6 pb of collisions at 5.02 TeV. The yields of charged hadrons with GeV near and opposite in azimuth to jets with or 60 GeV, and the ratios of these yields between +Pb and collisions, , are reported. The collision centrality of +Pb events is categorized by the energy deposited by forward neutrons from the struck nucleus. The values are consistent with unity within a few percent for hadrons with GeV at all centralities. These data provide new, strong constraints which preclude almost any parton energy loss in central +Pb collisions.

A measurement of inclusive and differential fiducial cross-sections for the production of the Higgs boson decaying into two photons is performed using 139 fb− 1 of proton-proton collision data recorded at= 13 TeV by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The inclusive cross-section times branching ratio, in a fiducial region closely matching the experimental selection, is measured to be 67±6 fb, which is in agreement with the state-of-the-art Standard Model prediction of 64±4 fb. Extrapolating this result to the full phase space and correcting for the branching ratio, the total cross-section for Higgs boson production is estimated to be 58±6 pb. In addition, the cross-sections in four fiducial regions sensitive to various Higgs boson production modes and differential cross-sections as a function of either one or two of several observables are measured. All the measurements are found to be in agreement …

A search for the Higgs boson decaying into a pair of charm quarks is presented. The analysis uses proton–proton collisions to target the production of a Higgs boson in association with a leptonically decaying W or Z boson. The dataset delivered by the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of and recorded by the ATLAS detector corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb-1. Flavour-tagging algorithms are used to identify jets originating from the hadronisation of charm quarks. The analysis method is validated with the simultaneous measurement of WW, WZ and ZZ production, with observed (expected) significances of 2.6 (2.2) standard deviations above the background-only prediction for the (W/Z) Z (→ cc¯) process and 3.8 (4.6) standard deviations for the (W/Z) W (→ cq) process. The (W/Z) H (→ cc¯) search yields an observed (expected) upper limit of 26 (31) times the predicted Standard Model cross-section times …

A simultaneous measurement of the three components of the top-quark and top-antiquark polarisation vectors in t-channel single-top-quark production is presented. This analysis is based on data from proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1, collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Selected events contain exactly one isolated electron or muon, large missing transverse momentum and exactly two jets, one being b-tagged. Stringent selection requirements are applied to discriminate t-channel single-top-quark events from the background contributions. The top-quark and top-antiquark polarisation vectors are measured from the distributions of the direction cosines of the charged-lepton momentum in the top-quark rest frame. The three components of the polarisation vector for the selected top-quark event sample are= 0. 01±0. 18,=− 0. 029±0. 027 …

This paper presents updated Monte Carlo configurations used to model the production of single electroweak vector bosons (W, Z/γ∗) in association with jets in proton-proton collisions for the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Improvements pertaining to the electroweak input scheme, parton-shower splitting kernels and scale-setting scheme are shown for multi-jet merged configurations accurate to next-to-leading order in the strong and electroweak couplings. The computational resources required for these set-ups are assessed, and approximations are introduced resulting in a factor three reduction of the per-event CPU time without affecting the physics modelling performance. Continuous statistical enhancement techniques are introduced by ATLAS in order to populate low cross-section regions of phase space and are shown to match or exceed the generated effective luminosity. This, together with …

Several observables sensitive to the fragmentation of b quarks into b hadrons are measured using 36 fb− 1 of s= 13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Jets containing b hadrons are obtained from a sample of dileptonic t t events, and the associated set of charged-particle tracks is separated into those from the primary p p interaction vertex and those from the displaced b-decay secondary vertex. This division is used to construct observables that characterize the longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions of the b hadron within the jet. The measurements have been corrected for detector effects and provide a test of heavy-quark-fragmentation modeling at the LHC in a system where the top-quark decay products are color connected to the proton beam remnants. The unfolded distributions are compared with the predictions of several modern Monte Carlo parton …

We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) sub-kiloparsec- to kiloparsec-scale resolution observations of the [C II], CO (9–8), and OH+ (11–01) lines along with their dust continuum emission toward the far-infrared (FIR) luminous quasar SDSS J231038.88+185519.7 at z = 6.0031, to study the interstellar medium distribution, the gas kinematics, and the quasar-host system dynamics. We decompose the intensity maps of the [C II] and CO (9–8) lines and the dust continuum with two-dimensional elliptical Sérsic models. The [C II] brightness follows a flat distribution with a Sérsic index of 0.59. The CO (9–8) line and the dust continuum can be fit with an unresolved nuclear component and an extended Sérsic component with a Sérsic index of ∼1, which may correspond to the emission from an active galactic nucleus dusty molecular torus and a quasar host galaxy, respectively. The different [C …

We present high-fidelity cosmology results from a blinded joint analysis of galaxy-galaxy weak lensing (Δ Σ) and projected galaxy clustering (w p) measured from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Year-1 (HSC-Y1) data and spectroscopic Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxy catalogs in the redshift range 0.15< z< 0.7. We define luminosity-limited samples of SDSS galaxies to serve as the tracers of w p in three spectroscopic redshift bins, and as the lens samples for Δ Σ. For the Δ Σ measurements, we select a single sample of 4× 10 6 source galaxies over 140 deg 2 from HSC-Y1 with photometric redshifts (photo z) greater than 0.75, enabling a better handle of photo-z errors by comparing the Δ Σ amplitudes for the three lens redshift bins. The deep, high-quality HSC-Y1 data enable significant detections of the Δ Σ signals, with integrated signal-to-noise ratio S/N∼ 15 in the range 3≤ R/[h− 1 Mpc]≤ 30 for the three lens …
