Description

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. Experimentally, the electroweak gauge couplings are accessible via di-boson production, vector boson production through vector boson fusion, vector boson scattering, and triple boson production. The talk describes measurements of various channels of di-boson production, vector boson fusion, vector boson scattering, and triple boson produciton with the ATLAS detector and the derived limits on anomalous triple and quartic gauge couplings. All measurements show good agreement with the Standard Model.
