Sumario: | Top quark pair properties using the ATLAS detector at the LHC The latest measurements of the properties of the top quark using the ATLAS experiment are presented. The top quark mass is one of the fundamental parameters of the Standard Model. A measurement based on a multidimensional template fit that can constrain the uncertainties on the energy measurements of jets is presented and combined with a measurement using dilepton events. In addition, novel measurements aiming to measure the mass in a welldefined scheme are presented. The top quark pair charge asymmetry is an asymmetry predicted to occur beyond leadingorder QCD in the Standard Model, and may be significantly enhanced by the presence of new physics. The ttbar production charge asymmetry is measured inclusively and differentially using the 7 and 8 TeV ATLAS datasets. Making use of the large number of top quark pairs collected, we also present measurements of the spin correlation between top and antitop quarks and discuss their sensitivities to new physics. A search for flavour changing neutral current processes in top quark decays is also presented. |
