This new gauge boson is predicted by some theories extending the Standard Model gauge group to solve some of its conceptual problems. Decays of the Wą boson in final states with a lepton (?± = e±, ”±) and the corresponding (anti-)neutrino are considered. Data collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2015 at a center of mass energy of sqrt{s}=13 TeV is used for the analysis. In turn, the second analysis presents a measurement of the double-differential cross section of the process pp->Z/gamma^* + X -> l^+l^- + X, including a gamma gamma induced contribution, at a center of mass energy of sqrt{s} = 8 TeV. The measurement is performed in an invariant mass region of 116 GeV to 1500 GeV as a function of invariant mass and absolute rapidity of the l^+l^-- pair, and as a function of invariant mass and pseudorapidity separation of the l^+l^-- pair. The data analyzed was recorded by the ATLAS experiment in 2012 and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 20.3/fb. It is expected that the measured cross sections are sensitive to the PDFs at very high values of the Bjorken-x scaling variable, and to the photon structure of the proton. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aElementary particles (Physics) 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aString theory 606 $aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029 606 $aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19048 615 0$aElementary particles (Physics). 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aString theory. 615 14$aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory. 615 24$aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory. 676 $a539.7234 700 $aZinser$b Markus$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01063047 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300160603321 996 $aSearch for New Heavy Charged Bosons and Measurement of High-Mass Drell-Yan Production in Proton?Proton Collisions$92529847 997 $aUNINA
