Measurement of the ZZ production cross section and limits on anomalous neutral triple gauge couplings with the ATLAS detector

This thesis presents measurements of the ZZ production cross section in proton-proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV and at √s = 8 TeV, using data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in 2011 and 2012. Events are selected which are consistent with two Z bosons decaying to electrons or muons. The cr...
