Measurement of the W + W − production cross section in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS experiments

The production of opposite-charge W-boson pairs in proton–proton collisions at s=13 TeV is measured using data corresponding to 3.16 fb −1 of integrated luminosity collected by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider in 2015. Candidate W-boson pairs are selected by identifying their lep...
