Searches for electroweak production of supersymmetric particles with the ATLAS detector

The direct production of electroweak supersymmetric (SUSY) particles, including sleptons, charginos and neutralinos, is a particularly interesting area with connections to dark matter, the naturalness of the Higgs boson’s mass, as well as recent anomalies on muon $g−2$ and $W$ boson mass measurements. The small production cross sections at the LHC makes searches difficult despite relatively clean final states. This article highlights the recent results of searches performed by the ATLAS experiment in 139 fb$^{−1}$ of $pp$ collisions at the LHC at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV.
