Probing QCD Parameters with Top-Quark Data

Results from inclusive and differential measurements of the productioncross sections for top quarks in proton-proton collisions at center-of-massenergies of 7 and 8~TeV are compared to predictions at next-to-leadingand next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics.From these s...

Sumario:Results from inclusive and differential measurements of the productioncross sections for top quarks in proton-proton collisions at center-of-massenergies of 7 and 8~TeV are compared to predictions at next-to-leadingand next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics.From these studies, constraints on the top-quark mass, the strongcoupling constant, and on parton distribution functions are determined.T = Probing QCD parameters with top-quark data$
