Measurements of the W+W− production using the leptonic decay channels are analysed using data collected by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The precise measurement of W+W− production is important for comparing to the Standard Model expectation, and also provides a detailed understanding of this process as a background in searches for new physics phenomena.
