TL;DR
This paper investigates how double parton scattering affects same-sign di-muon production at the LHC, highlighting its significant contribution to the total cross section and implications for new physics searches.
Contribution
It provides the first estimate of the double parton scattering contribution to same-sign di-muon production at the LHC.
Findings
The signal production cross section is approximately 0.94 fb.
Double parton scattering accounts for about 25% of the total cross section.
Implications for background estimation in new physics searches.
Abstract
The underlying event measurement may be crucial for the new physics searches at high energies at LHC. This study presents the influence of double parton scattering on the same-sign di-muon production, where only the positive charge is taken into account for now. The signal production cross section is found to be 0.94 fb within the kinematic range of the ATLAS detector. This creates around 25 per cent of the total cross section for the searched final state.
