Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>A search for a <jats:italic>WZ</jats:italic> resonance, in the fully leptonic final state (electrons or muons), is performed using 139 fb<jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:tex-math>$$^{-1}$$</jats:tex-math><mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:msup> <mml:mrow /> <mml:mrow> <mml:mo>-</mml:mo> <mml:mn>1</mml:mn> </mml:mrow> </mml:msup> </mml:math></jats:alternatives></jats:inline-formula> of data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The results are interpreted in terms of a singly charged Higgs boson of the Georgi–Machacek model, produced by <jats:italic>WZ</jats:italic> fusion, and of a Heavy Vector Triplet, with the resonance produced by <jats:italic>WZ</jats:italic> fusion or the Drell–Yan process. No significant excess over the Standard Model prediction is observed and limits are set on the production cross-section times branching ratio as a function of the resonance mass for these processes.</jats:p>
