Diboson production at the LHC

The potential for the observation and study of $pp \rightarrow$ WW $\rightarrow ll\nu\nu$, $pp \rightarrow$ WZ $\rightarrow lll\nu$, and $pp \rightarrow$ ZZ $\rightarrow llll$ ($l=e,\mu$) production are investigated using fully simulated signal and background Monte Carlo samples at the LHC. Due to t...

Sumario:The potential for the observation and study of $pp \rightarrow$ WW $\rightarrow ll\nu\nu$, $pp \rightarrow$ WZ $\rightarrow lll\nu$, and $pp \rightarrow$ ZZ $\rightarrow llll$ ($l=e,\mu$) production are investigated using fully simulated signal and background Monte Carlo samples at the LHC. Due to the relatively high cross sections at the LHC energy ($\sqrt{s}$ = 14 TeV) and the clean signature of multi-lepton final states, these productions could potentially be observed in the early phase of the experiment (100 $pb^{-1} \sim$ 1 $fb^{-1}$). The limits on the anomalous triple gauge couplings are also studied and could be significantly improved over the Tevatron results.
