Measurements of the top-quark mass using the ATLAS detector at the LHC
نویسنده
چکیده
The latest measurements of the top-quark mass using the ATLAS experiment at the LHC are presented. 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. Also measurements of the top-quark mass in the fully hadronic decay channel, as well as in t-channel enhanced topologies are shown. In addition, measurements are presented that use precision theoretical QCD calculations for both inclusive tt production and tt production with an additional jet to extract the top-quark mass in the pole mass scheme.

Investigation of top mass measurements with the ATLAS detector at LHC
Several methods for the determination of the mass of the top quark with the ATLAS detector at the LHC are presented. All dominant decay channels of the top quark can be explored. The measurements are in most cases dominated by systematic uncertainties. New methods have been developed to control those related to the detector. The results indicate that a total error on the top mass at the level o...
متن کاملEarly Top Physics with ATLAS
The ATLAS detector is one of the two multi-purpose experiments located at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN and is expected to collect first collision data in summer 2009. Due to the large top-quark production cross-section the LHC will function as a top-quark factory allowing to measure top-quark properties even at initial luminosities. We present some recently-performed studies, focussi...
متن کاملTop quark production in the ATLAS detector of the LHC
Top quark has been re-discovered at LHC in 2010 by the CMS and the ATLAS experiments. The top quark is the heaviest known elementary particle, and its properties might offer a hint of physics beyond the Standard Model. Therefore, it is interesting to measure them as precisely as possible. We present a summary of a variety of measurements relating to the top quark production in pp collisions wit...
متن کاملFiducial, total and differential cross-section measurements of t-channel single top-quark production in pp collisions at 8 TeV using data collected by the ATLAS detector
Detailed measurements of t-channel single topquark production are presented. They use 20.2 fb−1 of data collected by the ATLAS experiment in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV at the LHC. Total, fiducial and differential cross-sections are measured for both top-quark and top-antiquark production. The fiducial crosssection is measured with a precision of 5.8% (top quark...
متن کاملStudies of the internal properties of jets and jet substructure with the ATLAS Detector
The internal structure of jets produced in pp collisions at the LHC is measured using the ATLAS detector in an inclusive jet sample corresponding to 35 pb−1 of pp collisions at √ s = 7 TeV. Classical jet shape and energy flow measurements are complemented with measurements of new substructure observables with comparisons made to several leading order parton shower Monte Carlo programs. The jet ...
