Description
Studies of diboson production in pp collisions at center of mass energy of 14 TeV, predicted by the Standard Model electroweak interactions, will be performed with the ATLAS detector. Signals of the WW, ZW, ZZ, Wγ, Zγ channels are searched through their multi-lepton/photon final states while the sources of background are also studied. On this basis, lepton identification and selection efficiencies are optimized using events of Z decays to two leptons and the missing energy resolution and its systematic errors are studied via W boson decays to lepton and neutrino. Analysis with advanced techniques such as Boosted Decision Trees are applied for the WW, WZ and W/Zγ signals. Finally, the cross section measurements systematic and statistical uncertainties are estimated with respect to integrated luminosity of 0.1 to 10fb-1. The method of extracting anomalous triple-gauge coupling measurement is also presented
