Sumario:Electroweak symmetry breaking explains the origin of the masses of elementary particles via their interactions with the Higgs field. Besides the measurements of the Higgs boson properties, the study of the scattering of vector bosons at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) allows to probe the nature of electroweak symmetry breaking with an unprecedented sensitivity. We report on the latest Vector Boson Scattering (VBS) and Vector Boson Fusion (VBF) measurements from the ATLAS Collaboration at the LHC using events with no photons in the final state. This review focuses on the most recent ATLAS VBS/VBF measurements using the full dataset (139 fb-1 collected by the ATLAS detector during LHC Run-2 (2015-2018).
