Descripción
An inclusive search for non-Standard Model production of two prompt, isolated leptons with the same electric charge and an application to a doubly charged Higgs boson search are presented. The search is performed in a data sample corresponding to 20.3 fb−1 of integrated luminosity collected in 2012 at √s = 8 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the LHC.
Same-sign lepton pairs (ee, eμ, and μμ) are selected in an inclusive way, with minimal requirements placed on the non-leptonic activity in the event. No significant deviations from Standard Model expectations are observed. Limits on the contribution of new physics to a fiducial region corresponding to the event selection as well as the production
cross section of doubly charged Higgs bosons are extracted.
