Measurements of Top Quark Properties at the LHC
نویسنده
چکیده
A summary on the most recent results of the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations on the top quark porperties is presented. The measurements used data from the 2010 and 2011 LHC run, using integrated luminosities ranging from 35 pb −1 to 5.0 f b −1 , the latter corresponding to the full 2011 data sample. c Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike Licence.

Early 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 کاملTop Physics at the LHC
The Large Hadron Collider at CERN is scheduled to deliver its first proton-proton collisions in the autumn of 2009. The ATLAS and CMS experiments are in the final phase of installation and commissioning of their detectors, and are preparing for measurements of the first collisions. The LHC will be a top quark factory, both for topquark pair production and single top-quark production. In this no...
متن کاملMeasurement of the Top Quark Mass and Properties at the Lhc
Recent measurements of top quark properties using tt̄ events produced in proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider with centre of mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV and detected by the ATLAS and CMS experiments are presented. These results include top quark mass, the top and anti-top mass difference, top pole mass from the cross section measurement, the charge asymmetry, spin correlation, ...
متن کاملInvestigation of Electroweak Production of the Top Quark at the LHC
This thesis presents a study of the prospects of measuring electroweak production of the top quark at the LHC. The study of the top quark is a highly topical subject as we expect significant numbers of top quarks at the LHC which will enable us to conduct precision measurements of the properties of the top. The t-channel “single top” is a relatively rare mode of top production but with it we ca...
متن کاملMeasurements of the top-quark mass using the ATLAS detector at the LHC
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 en...
