Single top (tZq) and top pair production (ttZ) in association with a Z boson are important channels for studying the electroweak sector and potential deviations from Standard Model predictions. The two signals are measured jointly in the reprocessed Run 2 dataset, using an analysis model compatible with a future Run 3 measurement. The dataset, corresponding to a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1, is used to extract the ttZ and tZq production cross sections and set constraints on the top-Z couplings. The analysis targets final states with three leptons and additional b-jets. To improve the background estimation, which is dominated by diboson production, neural networks are used.

Keywords: ATLAS; top quark; joint measurement; ttZ; tZq
