Other top quark properties in ATLAS

We report on the measurements of the top quark charge and radiative top quark pair production cross section in pp collisions at $sqrt{s}= 7$ TeV using 0.70 fb$^{-1}$ and 1.04 fb$^{-1}$ of data, respectively, taken with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The top quark charge is confirmed to be $+2/3e$ as...

Sumario:We report on the measurements of the top quark charge and radiative top quark pair production cross section in pp collisions at $sqrt{s}= 7$ TeV using 0.70 fb$^{-1}$ and 1.04 fb$^{-1}$ of data, respectively, taken with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The top quark charge is confirmed to be $+2/3e$ as expected within the standard model. The cross section times branching ratio for $tar{t}gamma$ production with a photon with transverse momentum above 8 GeV is measured to be $2.0pm0.5$ (statistical) $pm 0.7$ (systematic) $pm 0.18$ (luminosity) pb.
