Abstract

This report presents a comprehensive collection of searches for new physics performed by the ATLAS Collaboration during the Run 2 period of data taking at the Large Hadron Collider, from 2015 to 2018, corresponding to about 140 fb⁻¹ of

\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

proton–proton collision data. These searches cover a variety of beyond-the-standard model topics such as dark matter candidates, new vector bosons, hidden-sector particles, leptoquarks, or vector-like quarks, among others. Searches for supersymmetric particles or extended Higgs sectors are explicitly excluded as these are the subject of separate reports by the Collaboration. For each topic, the most relevant searches are described, focusing on their importance and sensitivity and, when appropriate, highlighting the experimental techniques employed. In addition to the description of each analysis, complementary searches are compared, and the overall sensitivity of the ATLAS experiment to each type of new physics is discussed. Summary plots and statistical combinations of multiple searches are included whenever possible.

高能前沿探索：ATLAS Run 2搜索调查标准模型之外的奇异丛林

本报告全面收集了 ATLAS 协作体在大型强子对撞机数据采集的 Run 2 期间（2015 年至 2018 年）所进行的新物理学搜索，相当于约 140 fb-1 的 s=13TeV 质子-质子对撞数据。这些搜索涵盖了各种超越标准模型的主题，如暗物质候选者、新的矢量玻色子、隐矢量粒子、轻夸克或类矢量夸克等。对超对称粒子或扩展希格斯扇区的搜索被明确排除在外，因为这些都是协作体单独报告的主题。对于每个主题，都描述了最相关的搜索，重点介绍了它们的重要性和灵敏度，并在适当的时候强调了所采用的实验技术。除了对每项分析的描述之外，还对互补搜索进行了比较，并讨论了 ATLAS 实验对各类新物理的总体灵敏度。在可能的情况下，还包括多种搜索的汇总图和统计组合。

期刊介绍： Physics Reports keeps the active physicist up-to-date on developments in a wide range of topics by publishing timely reviews which are more extensive than just literature surveys but normally less than a full monograph. Each report deals with one specific subject and is generally published in a separate volume. These reviews are specialist in nature but contain enough introductory material to make the main points intelligible to a non-specialist. The reader will not only be able to distinguish important developments and trends in physics but will also find a sufficient number of references to the original literature.
