Measurement of event-shape observables in Z → ℓ + ℓ − events in pp collisions at √ s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC

Event-shape observables measured using charged particles in inclusive Z-boson events are presented, using the electron and muon decay modes of the Z bosons. The measurements are based on an integrated luminosity of 1.1 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector at theLHCat a cen...
