Description
Supersymmetry gives a solution to naturalness as well as a candidate for dark matter by predicting a new bosonic (fermionic) partner for each Standard Model fermion (boson). Searches for electroweak production of supersymmetric particles decaying via sleptons and gauge bosons, $W$ and $Z$, to final states with two or three leptons and missing transverse momentum were performed with the ATLAS detector. The search uses proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt s = 13$ TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC during 2015 and 2016 corresponding to $36fb^{-1}$. No significant excesses over the Standard Model were observed so exclusion limits are set on masses of the gauginos, the supersymmetric partners of $W^{\pm}$, $Z^{0}$, and $h$, in simplified models.
