Abstract
The production of W bosons in association with two jets in
proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of
√s = 7 TeV has been
analysed for the presence of double-parton interactions using data corresponding
to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb−1, collected with the ATLAS detector at
the Large Hadron Collider. The fraction of events arising from double-parton
interactions, f (D)
DP , has been measured through the pT balance between the
two jets and amounts to f (D)
DP = 0.08±0.01 (stat.)±0.02 (sys.) for jets with
transverse momentum pT > 20 GeV and rapidity |y| < 2.8. This corresponds to a
measurement of the effective area parameter for hard double-parton interactions
of σeff = 15±3 (stat.) +5
−3 (sys.) mb.
