Read article 'Report reveals full reach of LHC programme'
The High-Luminosity LHC, scheduled to operate from 2026, will increase the instantaneous luminosity of the LHC by at least a factor of five beyond its initial design luminosity.

WZ production, with its clean experimental signature, offers a sensitive way to search for anomalies.
Read article 'Exploring the spin of top-quark pairs'
The Standard Model makes precise predictions for the frequency at which the spin of the top quark is aligned with the spin of the top antiquark.
Read article 'ATLAS observes scattering of vector bosons'
The cross-section of longitudinal weak-boson scattering would diverge, resulting in meaningless values, were it not for the exact cancellation due to Higgs-boson contributions.

The predicted cross section for tγj, including the branching fraction, is 81 fb, which corresponds to a few hundred events in the whole dataset.
Read article 'A decade of advances in jet substructure'
Recent focus on measuring Standard Model properties using jet substructure has motivated ATLAS to measure the energy and mass response of large-radius jets with the highest possible precision.
Read article 'Observation of Higgs-boson decay to bottom quarks'
Processes that include the Higgs boson’s favoured decay mode to b quarks (with about 58% probability) have until now remained elusive.
Read article 'Closing in on the muon’s magnetic moment'
Experiment E989 is a reincarnation of the muon g-2 experiment at BNL, which found the muon’s anomalous magnetic moment to be 3.5 sigma above the Standard Model prediction.
Read article 'ATLAS observes Higgs-boson decay to b quarks'
Observing this decay mode and measuring its rate is mandatory to confirm (or not) the mass generation for fermions via Yukawa interactions, as predicted in the SM.
Read article 'Loops and legs in quantum field theory'
The conference brought together more than 100 researchers from 18 countries to discuss the latest results in precision calculations for particle physics at colliders.
