      abstract     = {A search for heavy long-lived multi-charged particles is
                      performed using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Data
                      collected in 2015-2018 at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV from $pp$
                      collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139
                      fb$^{-1}$ are examined. Particles producing anomalously high
                      ionization, consistent with long-lived spin-1/2 massive
                      particles with electric charges from $|q|=2e$ to $|q|=7e$
                      are searched for. No statistically significant evidence of
                      such particles is observed, and 95\% confidence level
                      cross-section upper limits are calculated and interpreted as
                      the lower mass limits for a Drell-Yan plus photon-fusion
                      production mode. The least stringent limit, 1060 GeV, is
                      obtained for $|q|=2e$ particles, and the most stringent one,
                      1600 GeV, is for $|q|=6e$ particles.},
