Top pair production at ATLAS

An overview of latest ATLAS measurements of top pair (tt̅) production in proton-proton collisions at the LHC at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV is presented. Measurements of the tt̅ production cross section (σtt̅) in various decay channels, including analyses of differential σtt̅ distribution...

Description
Summary:An overview of latest ATLAS measurements of top pair (tt̅) production in proton-proton collisions at the LHC at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV is presented. Measurements of the tt̅ production cross section (σtt̅) in various decay channels, including analyses of differential σtt̅ distributions and a study of jet multiplicity in tt̅ production, as well as searches for tt̅ resonances using boosted top techniques and standard methods, are discussed.
