Search for new phenomena in dijet events using 37 fb-1 of pp collision data collected at √s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
Dijet events are studied in the proton-proton collision data set recorded at s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2015 and 2016, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 3.5 fb-1 and 33.5 fb-1 respectively. Invariant mass and angular distributions are compared to backg...
