Plans for an early measurement of the ttbar cross section in the electron+jets channel at sqrt s = 10 TeV

We describe plans for a measurement of the $t\bar{t}$ cross section using semileptonic decays of top quark pairs in the electron channel that does not rely on b-tagging. Data-driven methods to estimate the contributions from QCD and W+jets background processes are presented. For QCD, we have explore...
