ATLAS is one of the general purpose experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), beginning its data taking in 2009. The Run 1 data taking of ATLAS ran from 2009 until the beginning of 2013, collecting ~25 fb-1 of p-p collision data. After LHC's Long Shutdown 1, ATLAS is restarting its Run 2 data taking operations in just these weeks.

New physics in the electroweak sector can be described in a model-independent way via anomalous gauge couplings. Measurements of these parameters allow for the exclusion or discovery of contributions beyond the Standard Model.

and the value of triple Higgs coupling from their values in the SM are connected to each other.
If SM-like scenario for observed Higgs boson is realized, mentioned deviations can be visible either simultaneously or inaccessible for observation at the LHC.

The contradiction currently exists in the results of proton electromagnetic form factors measurements. More accurate calculation of radiative corrections to electron-proton elastic scattering cross section is one of the possible solutions of this problem. Here we consider a potential contribution of Delta(1232) resonance to real radiative corrections. The effect is found to be small for past...

The large photon flux of heavy-ion beams at high energy results in
electromagnetic processes with large cross sections. Processes which
change the magnetic rigidity of the primary beam produce secondary
beams. The knowledge of the cross section of these reaction channels
is of great interest since they contribute to the finite lifetime of
the heavy-ion beam. Electromagnetic excitation...

"Effects of strong electromagnetic field in ultra-relativistic
heavy-ion collisions"
Abstract:
In collisions of relativistic nuclei of gold (the RHIC collider)
or lead (the LHC collider) electric and magnetic fields may exceed
by several orders of magnitude the critical Schwinger field, but
these fields act during a very short time. In...

QED processes in the field of a heavy atom are important in different area such as atomic physics, high energy physics, astrophysics and others. These processes are describe interaction of charged particles and photons with matter. Bremsstrahlung and particle-antiparticle photoproduction in the electric field of a heavy nucleus or atom play a dominant role when considering electromagnetic...
