The search uses proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to 139 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity recorded by the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. The analysis focuses on final states with three or four electrons or muons from the possible decays of new heavy leptons via intermediate electroweak bosons. No significant deviations above the Standard Model expectation are observed; upper and lower limits on the heavy lepton production cross-section and masses are derived respectively. These results are then combined for the first time with the ones already published by ATLAS using the channel with two leptons in the final state. The observed lower limit on the mass of the type-III seesaw heavy leptons combining two, three and four lepton channels together is 910 GeV at the 95{\%} confidence level.", optnote="WOS:000878749900004", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5411), last updated on Fri, 25 Nov 2022 08:35:42 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-022-10785-0", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.02039", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-022-10785-0", language="English" }
