Tests of the electroweak sector with Z Boson at the ATLAS Experiment

This talk focuses on two analyses that use the ATLAS Run-2 data. The first analysis is on the electroweak production of di-jets in association with a Z boson, the second is the measurement of ZZ production. They use 3.1 /fb and 36.1 /fb of data respectively collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13...

description This talk focuses on two analyses that use the ATLAS Run-2 data. The first analysis is on the electroweak production of di-jets in association with a Z boson, the second is the measurement of ZZ production. They use 3.1 /fb and 36.1 /fb of data respectively collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The EW Zjj measurement is sensitive to the vector-boson fusion production mechanism. It is performed in a fiducial region chosen to enhance the electroweak contribution over the dominant background, in which the jets produced in association with the Z boson arise from the strong interaction. The measurement of ZZ production is used to search for neutral triple gauge couplings using the transverse momentum distribution of the leading Z boson candidate. No evidence for such couplings is found and exclusion limits are set on their parameters.
