Search for new phenomena in a lepton plus high jet multiplicity final state with the ATLAS experiment using √s=13 TeV proton-proton collision data

A search for new phenomena in final states characterized by high jet multiplicity, an isolated lepton (electron or muon) and either zero or at least three b-tagged jets is presented. The search uses 36.1 fb −1 of s=13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Ha...
