Open AccessAbstract
The results of a search for new heavy
W
'
bosons decaying to an electron or muon and a neutrino using proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of
s
=
13
TeV are presented. The dataset was collected in 2015 and 2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36.1
fb
-
1
. As no excess of events above the Standard Model prediction is observed, the results are used to set upper limits on the
W
'
boson cross-section times branching ratio to an electron or muon and a neutrino as a function of the
W
'
mass. Assuming a
W
'
boson with the same couplings as the Standard Model W boson,
W
'
masses below 5.1 TeV are excluded at the 95% confidence level.
