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.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCROSS-SECTIONSYMMETRYEVENTSQCDEWArticle2-s2.0-8504747354510.1140/epjc/s10052-018-5877-y30996666Q1WOS:000433513500006
