The analysis uses 5fb-1 of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV proton--proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider to search for the following signatures: single lepton-jets with at least four muons; pairs of lepton-jets, each with two or more muons; and pairs of lepton-jets with two or more electrons. This study finds no statistically significant deviation from the Standard Model prediction and places 95% confidence-level exclusion limits on the production cross section times branching ratio of light bosons for several parameter sets of a Hidden Valley model.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-03-22T14:54:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "atlas detector", "pp collisions", "prompt lepton-jets", "proton-proton collision data", "cross section times branching ratio" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Physics Letters B", "year": 2013, "month": "Feb", "volume": 719, "number": "4-5", "pages": 299 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1208548, "adsabs": "2013PhLB..719..299A" } } }
