The analysis uses 5 fb(-1) of root s = 7 TeV proton-proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider to search for the following signatures: single lepton-jets with at least four muons; pairs of lepton-jets, each with two or more muons; and pairs of lepton-jets with two or more electrons. This study finds no statistically significant deviation from the Standard Model prediction and places 95% confidence-level exclusion limits on the production cross section times branching ratio of light bosons for several parameter sets of a Hidden Valley model.en500 - Science::530 - PhysicsA search for prompt lepton-jets in pp collisions at sqrts=7 TeV with the ATLAS detectorarticle10.7892/boris.583911212.5409v200031531690000810.1016/j.physletb.2013.01.034
