摘要

High Energy Physics - Experiment Physics
A search for charged lepton flavour violation inτ→ 3μdecays is performed inppcollisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV using ATLAS data collected between 2016 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137\text{fb}{⁻¹}{} . The search focuses on the electroweakW → τνproduction channel. Data are collected using two-muon and three-muon triggers and a multivariate analysis is used to separate the signal from the background. An unbinned likelihood fit is then performed to the resulting three-muon invariant mass spectrum and the data are found to be compatible with the background-only hypothesis. The observed (expected) limit on the branching ratioB(τ→3μ)is found to be8.7× 10⁻⁸( 7.5× 10⁻⁸ ) at90%CL.
