title: "Table 7: Limits on B(LQ-&gt;b+tau) v.s. YM Vector LQ Mass" of "Search for pair production of third-generation leptoquarks decaying into a bottom quark and a $\tau$-lepton with the ATLAS detector"

description: The observed and expected 95% CL upper limits on the branching ratio into charged leptons as a function of m$_\text{LQ}$ for the vector LQ Yang-Mills coupling scenario.
description: CERN-LHC, ATLAS. A search for pair-produced scalar or vector leptoquarks (LQs) decaying into a $b$-quark and a $\tau$-lepton is presented using the full LHC Run 2 (2015-2018) data sample of 139 fb$^{\text{-1}}$ collected with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV. Events in which at least one $\tau$-lepton decays hadronically are considered, and multivariate discriminants are used to extract the signals. No significant deviations from the Standard Model expectation are observed and 95% confidence-level upper limits on the production cross-section are derived as a function of m$_\text{LQ}$ and branching ratio B into a $\tau$-lepton and $b$-quark. For scalar LQs, masses below 1460 GeV are excluded assuming B = 100%, while for vector LQs the corresponding limit is 1650 GeV (1910 GeV) in the minimal-coupling (Yang-Mills, YM) scenario.

Basic event selection:
- ==0(1) electron or muon for $\tau_\text{lep}\tau_\text{had}$ ($\tau_\text{had}\tau_\text{had}$) region: $p_T$ thresholds are corresponding trigger, in fiducial volume, isolated from jets
- ==1(2) hadronically decaying $\tau$s ($\tau_{had}$s) for $\tau_\text{lep}\tau_\text{had}$ ($\tau_\text{had}\tau_\text{had}$) region: $p_T$ &gt; 100 GeV (thresholds are corresponding trigger) for $\tau_\text{lep}\tau_\text{had}$ ($\tau_\text{had}\tau_\text{had}$) region, in fiducial volume, isolated from jets
- &gt;=2 small-R jets, with 1 or 2 $b$-tagged
- Opposite charge electron/muon/$\tau_{had}$s and $\tau_{had}$s
- MMC mass from 2 leptons ($m_{MMC}$) should be not 40 &lt; $m_{MMC}$ &lt; 150 GeV (Z veto)
- Missing transverse momentum &gt; 100 GeV
- Scalar sum of $p_T$ ($s_T$) &gt; 600 GeV

title: "Cross-section limits" of "Search for an exotic decay of the Higgs boson into a Z boson and a pseudoscalar particle in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV"

description: Exclusion limits on the product of the production cross section and the branching fraction, as a function of the pseudoscalar mass hypothesis.
description: A search for an exotic decay of the Higgs boson to a Z boson and a light pseudoscalar particle (a), decaying to a pair of leptons and a pair of photons, respectively, is presented. The search is based on proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. The analysis probes pseudoscalar masses $m_{a}$ between 1 and 30 GeV, leading to two pairs of well-isolated leptons and photons. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are set on the Higgs boson production cross section times its branching fraction to two leptons and two photons. The observed (expected) limits are in the range of 1.1-17.8 (1.7-17.9) fb within the probed $m_{a}$ interval. An excess of data above the expected standard model background with a local (global) significance of 2.6 (1.3) standard deviations is observed for a mass hypothesis of $m_{a}$ = 3 GeV. Limits on models involving axion-like particles, formulated as an effective field theory, are also reported.

title: "Table 7" of "Search for flavor-changing neutral-current couplings between the top quark and the $Z$ boson with LHC Run 2 proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector"

description: Summary of the signal strength $\mu$ parameters obtained from the fits to extract LH and RH results for the FCNC tZu and tZc couplings. For the reference branching ratio, the most stringent limits are used.
description: A search for flavor-changing neutral-current couplings between a top quark, an up or charm quark and a $Z$ boson is presented, using proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The analyzed dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb$^{-1}$. The search targets both single-top-quark events produced as $gq\rightarrow tZ$ (with $q = u, c$) and top-quark-pair events, with one top quark decaying through the $t \rightarrow Zq$ channel. The analysis considers events with three leptons (electrons or muons), a $b$-tagged jet, possible additional jets, and missing transverse momentum. The data are found to be consistent with the background-only hypothesis and 95% confidence-level limits on the $t \rightarrow Zq$ branching ratios are set, assuming only tensor operators of the Standard Model effective field theory framework contribute to the $tZq$ vertices. These are $6.2 \times 10^{-5}$ ($13\times 10^{-5}$) for $t\rightarrow Zu$ ($t\rightarrow Zc$) for a left-handed $tZq$ coupling, and $6.6 \times 10^{-5}$ ($12\times 10^{-5}$) in the case of a right-handed coupling. These results are interpreted as 95% CL upper limits on the strength of corresponding couplings, yielding limits for $|C_{uW}^{(13)*}|$ and $|C_{uB}^{(13)*}|$ ($|C_{uW}^{(31)}|$ and $|C_{uB}^{(31)}|$) of 0.15 (0.16), and limits for $|C_{uW}^{(23)*}|$ and $|C_{uB}^{(23)*}|$ ($|C_{uW}^{(32)}|$ and $|C_{uB}^{(32)}|$) of 0.22 (0.21), assuming a new-physics energy scale $\Lambda_\text{NP}$ of 1 TeV.

description: Observed and expected 95% CL limits on the FCNC $t\rightarrow Zq$ branching ratios and the effective coupling strengths for different vertices and couplings (top eight rows). For the latter, the energy scale is assumed to be $\Lambda_{NP}$ = 1 TeV. The bottom rows show, for the case of the FCNC $t\rightarrow Zu$ branching ratio, the observed and expected 95% CL limits when only one of the two SRs, either SR1 or SR2, and all CRs are included in the likelihood.
