Search for Vector-Like Quarks using Trilepton and Same-Sign Dilepton Events in 20.3 fb⁻¹ of Proton-Proton Collisions at √S = 8 TeV with the ATLAS Detector

A search is presented for vector-like quarks using 20.3 fb⁻¹ of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √S = 8 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector in 2012 at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Vector-like quarks are predicted to exist in many theories beyond the Standard Model of parti...
