The contour for the excluded mass--lifetime region for stau pair production obtained with the di-track search. All masses and lifetimes shown that are below the curve and above 200 GeV are excluded by the observed data (while the expected exclusion is between the upper curve down to 210 GeV for lifetimes above 3000 ns). The sensitivity extends indefinitely to longer lifetimes.

The distribution of data and predicted background in the di-track Exclusion-SR. The observed data events are indicated as magenta circles if they are inside the mass-compatibility angle (shown as grey lines) and as orange diamonds if they are outside, while the blue area is the mass distribution of the expected background. The last bins include overflow events

The measured differential cross-sections and the predictions from the GM-VFNS calculation for the $D_s^\pm$ meson in bins of $p_T$ for $|\eta| < 2.5$. The statistical, systematic (excluding branching ratio) and branching ratio uncertainties are shown separately for data, while the total theory uncertainties are shown for GM-VFNS.

Inclusive $D^\pm$ meson production cross-sections in different fiducial volumes defined by $|\eta|<2.5$ and different $p_T$ regions. For the ATLAS measurements, the statistical, systematic (excluding branching ratio) and branching ratio uncertainties are shown separately; for the theoretical predictions, the total theoretical uncertainties are shown.
