Measurement of the W → ℓν and Z/γ* → ℓℓ production cross sections in proton-proton collisions at √ s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector

First measurements of the W → ℓν and Z/γ * → ℓℓ (ℓ = e, μ) production cross sections in proton-proton collisions at √ s = 7TeV are presented using data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The results are based on 2250 W → ℓν and 179 Z/γ* → ℓℓ candidate events selected from a data set corres...
