Sumario:Top quark particles play an important role in many beyond-the-standard-model scenarios. When produced by a massive new particle, the top quark will have a very high transverse momentum, and will be referred to as boosted top. In this regime, the study of the substructure of the large radius jet that fully contains the hadronic decay products is more efficient than the resolved reconstruction. The algorithms that identify these decays are called top-taggers. This poster presents the different top-tagging techniques used in ATLAS.
