Abstract | I will talk about a measurement of transverse momentum spectrum using ATLAS data produced by proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV during 2010 run of the LHC. The signature of W bosons is searched via their leptonic decay modes including those of electrons and muons. The result obtained is the normalised differential cross-section as a function of W transverse momentum with the range up to 300 GeV. This result is compared with the predictions of perturbative QCD and a selection of event generators. |
