This Letter presents measurements of the cross sections for the inclusive production of four leptons (4l, l ¼ e; μ) at the Z resonance in pp collisions atpffiffiffis¼ 7 and 8 TeV using data recorded by the ATLAS detector[1]at the LHC[2]. In the standard model (SM),4l production in the Z resonance region occurs dominantly via an s-channel diagram such as that shown in Fig. 1(a) where the Z boson decay to charged leptons includes the production of an additional lepton pair from the internal conversion of a virtual Z orγ. A small fraction of 4l events is produced in a t-channel process such as that shown in Fig.1(b), which includes Z production with internal conversion of initial-state radia-tion. The process gg→ ZðÞZðÞ→ 4l accounts for only about10−3of the total4l event rate around the Z resonance

[3]. A resonant peak around the Z mass in the4l invariant mass spectrum is observed along with the nearby peak from the Higgs boson decay H→ 4l[4,5]. A measurement of the4l production cross section at the Z resonance provides a test of the SM and a cross-check of the detector response to the4l final state from Higgs decays.

Since the interference between the resonant and non-resonant (t-channel and gg) production mechanisms is expected to be small around the Z resonance, the branching fraction of the rare decay Z→ 4l can be determined by subtracting the expected nonresonant 4l contributions from the measured 4l rate. For simplicity, inclusive 4l production around the Z resonance, including the nonreso-nant contributions, is denoted as Z→ 4l from here on, except that the branching fractionΓZ→4lZ refers to the s-channel contribution alone. The CMS Collaboration has observed the Z→ 4l resonance in pffiffiffis¼ 7 TeV data and

determined a branching fraction, summed over the 4e, 4μ, and 2e2μ final states, of ΓZ→4l=ΓZ¼ ð4.2þ0.9−0.8ðstatÞ 0.2ðsystÞÞ × 10−6, where 80 < m

4l< 100 GeV and mll> 4 GeV for all pairs of leptons [6]. The results presented here include the first cross-section measurement of the4l production at the Z resonance at pffiffiffis¼ 8 TeV, and a determination ofΓZ→4l=ΓZwith improved statistical precision in a final phase-space region defined by the dilepton and four-lepton invariant mass requirements mlþl− > 5 GeV and 80 < m4l< 100 GeV, where lþl− denotes all same-flavor lepton pairs with opposite charge. The ATLAS detector has a cylindrical geometry[7]and consists of an inner tracking detector (ID) surrounded by a 2 T superconducting solenoid, electromagnetic and had-ronic calorimeters, and a muon spectrometer (MS) with a toroidal magnetic field. The ID provides precision tracking for charged particles for jηj < 2.5. It consists of silicon pixel and strip detectors surrounded by a straw tube tracker that also provides transition radiation measurements for electron identification. The calorimeter system covers the pseudorapidity range jηj < 4.9. For jηj < 2.5, the liquid-argon electromagnetic calorimeter is finely segmented and plays an important role in electron identification. The MS includes fast-trigger chambers (jηj < 2.4) and high-precision tracking chambers coveringjηj < 2.7.

The data sets for this analysis are recorded using single-lepton and disingle-lepton triggers. The transverse momentum (pT) thresholds of these triggers vary from 20 to 24 GeV for the single-lepton triggers and from 8 to 13 GeV for the dilepton triggers, depending on lepton flavor and data-taking period. The overall trigger efficiency for selected Z → 4l events ranges from 94 to 99%.

After removing the short data-taking periods having problems that affect the lepton reconstruction, the total integrated luminosity used in the analysis is 4.5 fb−1 at 7 TeV and20.3 fb−1 at 8 TeV. The overall uncertainty on the integrated luminosity is 1.8%ffiffiffi [8]and 2.8%[9]for the

s p

¼ 7 and 8 TeV data sets, respectively.

ThePOWHEGMonte Carlo (MC) program[10–12], used to calculate the signal cross sections, includes perturbative QCD corrections to next-to-leading order. The calculation also includes the interference terms between the s-channel and the t-channel as well as the interference terms between the Z and the γ diagrams. The CT10 [13] set of parton distribution functions (PDFs) and QCD renormalization and factorization scales of μR, μF ¼ m4l are used. In the mlþl− > 5 GeV and 80 < m4l< 100 GeV phase space, the production cross sections calculated by POWHEG are 53.4  1.2 fb (45.8  1.1 fb) for the sum of the 4e and 4μ final states, and51.5  1.2 fb (44.2  1.1 fb) for the 2e2μ final state at 8 TeV (7 TeV). The cross sections for4e and 4μ are larger than for 2e2μ due to the interference between the two same-flavor lepton pairs. The cross-section uncer-tainties reflect theoretical unceruncer-tainties from the choice of QCD scales and PDFs. The scales are varied independently from 0.5 to 2.0 times the nominalμR,μF ¼ m4l. The PDF uncertainties are estimated by taking the sum in quadrature of the deviations of the cross section for each PDF error set (52 CT10 eigenvectors varied by one standard deviation) and for an alternative PDF set, MSTW2008 [14], with respect to the nominal one. The expected fraction of 4l events produced via the t-channel process is ð3.35  0.02Þ% and ð3.90  0.02Þ% for same-flavor (4e, 4μ) and mixed-flavor (2e2μ) final states, respectively, for both 7 and 8 TeV. The gg→ ZZ → 4l process is modeled byGG2ZZ[15], and the4l event fraction from this process is calculated to be around 0.1%. The overall nonresonant fraction (fnr) from the t-channel and gg contributions combined is ð3.45  0.02Þ% and ð4.00  0.02Þ% for the same-flavor and mixed-flavor final states, respectively. To generate MC events with a simulation of the detector to determine the signal acceptance, POWHEG is interfaced to PYTHIA6 [16] or PYTHIA8 [17] for showering and hadro-nization and to PHOTOS [18] for radiated photons from charged leptons.

The MC generators used to simulate the reducible background contributions are MC@NLO [19] (to model top productions) and ALPGEN [20] (to model Z boson production in association with jets, referred to as Z þ jets). These generators are interfaced to HERWIG [21]

andJIMMY[22]for parton showering and underlying-event simulations. The diboson background processes WZ and Zγ, and ZðÞZðÞ → 4l decays involving τ → e=μ þ 2ν, are modeled by POWHEG (interfaced to PYTHIA for parton showering) andSHERPA[23].

The detector response simulation [24] is based on the GEANT4 program[25]. Additional inelastic pp interactions (referred to as pile-up) are included in the simulation, and events are reweighted to reproduce the observed distribu-tion of the average number of collisions per bunch crossing in the data.

The Z→ 4l event selection closely follows the H → ZZ→ 4l analysis[26]with muon p

Tand dilepton invariant mass requirements loosened to increase the acceptance for the Z→ 4l process.

Muons are identified by tracks reconstructed in the MS and are matched to tracks reconstructed in the ID (jηj < 2.5). The muon momentum is calculated by combin-ing the information from the trackcombin-ing systems, correctcombin-ing for the energy lost in the calorimeters. In the region 2.5 < jηj < 2.7, muons can also be identified by an MS track alone (denoted stand-alone muons). The identified muons described above are required to have pT> 4 GeV. In the MS gap region (jηj < 0.1) muons are identified by an ID track with pT> 15 GeV associated with a compat-ible calorimeter energy deposit (denoted calorimeter-tagged muons).

Electrons are reconstructed from energy deposits in the electromagnetic calorimeter matched to a track in the ID

[27]. Tracks associated with electromagnetic clusters are fitted using a Gaussian sum filter [28], which allows bremsstrahlung energy losses to be taken into account. For pffiffiffis¼ 8 TeV data, improved electron discrimination from jets is obtained using a likelihood function formed from parameters characterizing the shower shape and track association, resulting in a reduction of the electron mis-identification rate by more than a factor of two compared to that at 7 TeV. Electron candidates are required to have pT> 7 GeV and jηj < 2.47.

Collision events are selected by requiring at least one reconstructed vertex with at least three charged particle tracks with pT> 0.4 GeV. If more than one vertex satisfies the selection requirement, the primary vertex is chosen as the one with the highestPp2T, summed over all tracks associated with the vertex.

In order to reject electrons and muons from jets, only isolated leptons are selected, requiring the scalar sum of the transverse momenta,PpT, of other tracks inside a cone size ofΔR ¼pffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiðΔηÞ2þ ðΔϕÞ2¼ 0.2 around the lepton to be less than 15% of the lepton pT. In addition, the

P ET deposited in calorimeter cells inside a cone size ofΔR ¼ 0.2 around the lepton direction, excluding the transverse energy due to the lepton and corrected for the expected pile-up contribution, is required to be less than 30% of the lepton pT, reduced to 20% for electrons in the 8 TeV data

set and 15% for stand-alone muons. The impact parameter relative to the primary vertex is required to be less than 3.5 (6.0) standard deviations for all muons (electrons), where the looser electron requirement allows for tails in the electron impact parameter distribution due to bremsstrah-lung in the ID.

Candidate quadruplets are formed by selecting two opposite-sign, same-flavor dilepton (lþl) pairs in an event. The four leptons of a quadruplet are required to be well separated: ΔR > 0.1 for same-flavor lepton pairs andΔR > 0.2 for eμ pairs. At most one muon is allowed to be a stand-alone muon or a calorimeter-tagged muon. The two leading leptons must have pT> 20 and 15 GeV. The third lepton must have pT> 10 ð8Þ GeV if it is an electron (muon). One quadruplet is selected for each event, formed from thelþl−pair with greatest invariant mass (the leading lepton pair, with mass m12) and thelþl−pair with the largest invariant mass among the remaining possible pairs (the subleading pair, with mass m34). The dilepton masses must satisfy m12> 20 GeV and m34> 5 GeV. In the4e and 4μ channels all the lþl− pairs are required to have mlþl− > 5 GeV, to reject events containing J=ψ → lþldecays. The 4l invariant mass is restricted to 80 < m4l< 100 GeV. A total of 21 and 151 Z → 4l candidate events are selected in the 7 and 8 TeV data sets, respectively. The distributions of m12, m34, and m4l are shown in Fig. 2. The number of events observed in each channel is shown in TableI, where the labelingll þ l0l0 indicates the leading and subleading lepton pairs.

The overall signal selection efficiency is the product of efficiency and acceptance factors, C4l and A4l, respec-tively. The efficiency factor C4l is the ratio of the number of Z→ 4l events passing the reconstructed event selec-tions to the number in the fiducial region, and is determined using the signal MC samples after the detector simulation. The fiducial region, defined at the MC generator level using the lepton four-momenta, requires pT> 20, 15, 10 (8), 7(4) GeV and jηj < 2.5ð2.7Þ of the pT-ordered eðμÞ,

ΔRðl; l0Þ > 0.1ð0.2Þ for all same(different)-flavor lepton pairs, mlþl− > 20 GeV for at least one lepton pair, mlþl− > 5 GeV for all same-flavor lepton pairs, and 80 < m4l< 100 GeV. The four-momenta of all final-state photons withinΔR ¼ 0.1 of a lepton are summed into the four-momentum of that lepton. The acceptance factor A4lis the fraction of Z→ 4l events in the final phase space which falls into the fiducial region. The C4luncertainty is mostly experimental and the A4l uncertainty is entirely theoretical. The A4land C4lvalues are listed in TableIfor each channel and data set. The C4l values for 8 TeV are larger than for 7 TeV due to a variety of factors, including electron identification improvements with better brems-strahlung treatment and additional muon detector coverage. The MC lepton identification and trigger efficiencies are corrected based on studies performed in data control regions. The energy and momentum scales and resolutions of the MC events are calibrated to reproduce data from Z → lþland J=ψ → lþldecays. The uncertainties on the Z→ 4l signal detection efficiency are determined by varying the nominal calibrations (including lepton energy and momentum resolutions and scales, and the trigger, reconstruction, and identification efficiencies) in the MC samples by one standard deviation. For the 8 TeV (7 TeV) analysis, the relative uncertainties on the C4l factors are 2.7% (2.7%), 3.7% (4.9%), 6.2% (9.8%), and 9.4% (14.9%) for μμ þ μμ, ee þ μμ, μμ þ ee, and ee þ ee, respectively. The major uncertainty contributions come from the lepton reconstruction and identification efficien-cies. The relative uncertainties on the A4lfactors, evaluated using POWHEG MC samples with the same approach for QCD scale and PDF uncertainties as described earlier, range from 1.3% to 1.7% depending on the channel.

The overall background in the selected4l event sample is estimated to be below 1%, as shown in Table I. The background contributions from diboson production are estimated, using MC simulations, to be 0.06  0.01 and 0.49  0.04 events in the 7 and 8 TeV data sets, [GeV] 12 m 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Events / 2.5 GeV 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 ATLAS -1 = 7 TeV, 4.5 fb s -1 (a) = 8 TeV, 20.3 fb s Data Z Bkg stat+syst σ 4l → Z [GeV] 34 m 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 Events / 2.5 GeV 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 ATLAS -1 = 7 TeV, 4.5 fb s -1 (b) = 8 TeV, 20.3 fb s Data Z Bkg stat+syst σ 4l → Z [GeV] 4l m 75 80 85 90 95 100 105 Events / 3 GeV 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 ATLAS -1 = 7 TeV, 4.5 fb s -1 (c) = 8 TeV, 20.3 fb s Data Z Bkg stat+syst σ 4l → Z

respectively. Background contributions from Zþ jets and top-production processes are estimated from data. Such background events may contain two isolated leptons from Z decays or from W decays in top events, together with additional activity such as heavy-flavor jets or misidentified components of jets yielding reconstructed leptons. These backgrounds are estimated using a background-enriched control sample oflljljlevents, selected with the standard signal requirements except that lepton-like jets, jl, are selected in place of two of the signal leptons. Electron-like jets, je, in the lljljl control sample are obtained from electromagnetic clusters matched to tracks in the ID that do not satisfy the identification criteria or isolation require-ments. Muon-like jets, jμ, are defined as muon candidates that fail the requirements on isolation. These backgrounds in the signal sample are estimated by scaling each event in thelljljl control sample by f1× f2, where the factor fi (i¼ 1, 2) for each of the two lepton-like jets depends on lepton flavor and pT. The factor f is the ratio of the probability for a jet to satisfy the signal lepton selection criteria to the probability for the jet to satisfy the lepton-like jet criteria, and is obtained from independent jet-enriched data samples dominated by Zþ jets or t¯t events. The background from Zþ jets and top processes, for all 4l channels combined, is estimated to be 0.38  0.14 and 0.49  0.10 events for the 7 and 8 TeV data, respectively. The numbers of signal events predicted by MC simu-lation are 23.8  1.2 and 145  7 for 7 and 8 TeV, respectively. The data and MC predictions, as shown in Fig. 2, are in good agreement. Denoting the integrated luminosity by L, the measured fiducial cross sections (σfid

Z4l), determined byðNobs4l − Nbkg4lÞ=ðL × C4lÞ, are given in Table I. The cross section in the final phase space for

each channel is calculated byσfid

Z4l/A4l. The cross sections obtained for the eeþ ee and μμ þ μμ channels, and for the2e þ 2μ and 2μ þ 2e channels, are compatible within errors and are combined using2 × 2 covariance matrices. The total 4l cross section is a sum of the two combined cross sections, and the uncertainty includes correlations between the four channels. These cross sections in the final phase space are also given in TableI.

The Z→ 4l branching fraction, ΓZ→4l=ΓZ, is deter-mined by subtracting the nonresonant contributions to the selected events and normalizing the resulting yield to the observed number of Z→ μþμ− events in the same data set, ΓZ→4l ΓZ ¼  ΓZ→μμ ΓZ  ðNobs 4l − Nbkg4lÞð1 − fnrÞC2μ· A2μ ðNobs 2μ − Nbkg2μ ÞC4l· A4l ; where ΓZ→μμ=ΓZ¼ ð3.366  0.007Þ% [29], Nobs2μ is around 1.7 million and 8.9 million in the 7 and 8 TeV data sets, respectively, andðC × AÞisð41.4  0.6Þ% and ð41.8  0.6Þ%, respectively. The background (Nbkg

The measured branching fractions for each data set are consistent within uncertainties and are combined, giving

the interference between the s-channel and t-channel processes, calculated using CALCHEP[30]. The measured branching fraction is consistent with the SM prediction of ð3.33  0.01Þ × 10−6, calculated using POWHEG. For a larger final phase-space region defined by mlþl− > 4 GeV and 80 < m4l< 100 GeV, similar to that used by CMS, the acceptance factors A4l and the nonresonant fractions fnr, and their uncertainties, are also evaluated (leaving the fiducial region unchanged), and the measured branch-ing fraction becomes ΓZ→4lZ¼ð4.310.34ðstatÞ 0.17ðsystÞÞ×10−6, compared with an SM prediction of ð4.50  0.01Þ × 10−6. This result is consistent with the CMS result measured with data collected from pp collisions at 7 TeV.

In summary, using data collected by the ATLAS detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of4.5 fb−1 and 20.3 fb−1 at pffiffiffis¼ 7 and 8 TeV, respectively, the total Z → 4l production cross sections in the phase-space region mlþl− > 5 GeV and 80 < m4l< 100 GeV are measured to be σZ4l¼ 76  18ðstatÞ  4ðsystÞ  1.4ðlumiÞ fb at 7 TeV and 107  9ðstatÞ  4ðsystÞ  3.0ðlumiÞ fb at 8 TeV, consistent with the SM predictions of 90.0  2.1 fb and 104.8  2.5 fb, respectively.
