The top quark pair production cross-section with ATLAS

Measurements of the top quark pair production cross-section provide important tests of Standard Model predictions. The LHC has delivered of order 10^6 top quark pairs during the 2011 run, enabling accurate measurements of the cross-section in several decay modes. The latest results of these measurem...

Sumario:Measurements of the top quark pair production cross-section provide important tests of Standard Model predictions. The LHC has delivered of order 10^6 top quark pairs during the 2011 run, enabling accurate measurements of the cross-section in several decay modes. The latest results of these measurements using the ATLAS detector are presented, including measurements of the cross-section using the single lepton, di-lepton, and all hadronic modes, as well as a statistical combination their results. Additionally, measurements of ttbar production with taus in the final state, and with a veto on central jet activity will also be presented.
