Measurement of the t (t)over-bar production cross-section using e mu events with b-tagged jets in pp collisions at root s = 7 and 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector (vol 76, pg 642, 2014)

TL;DR: In this article, the ATLAS measurement of the inclusive top quark pair cross-section was updated using the final 2012 luminosity calibration, which is consistent with theoretical QCD calculations at next-to-next-leading order.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the antikt algorithm with radius parameter R varying between 0.2 and 1.0 to reconstruct the trajectories of the charged particle jets at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

TL;DR: In this paper, the notion of electronic documents is defined as a set of evolutionary elements by nature, which the user must be able to appropriate and who must thus be placed at the disposal so that the production is erased, focusing on a logic of exploitation and service.

Measurement of the inclusive and dijet cross-sections of b-jets in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +3001 more
Abstract: The inclusive and dijet production cross-sections have been measured for jets containing b-hadrons (b-jets) in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √ s = 7 TeV, using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measurements use data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 34 pb−1. The b-jets are identified using either a lifetime-based method, where secondary decay vertices of b-hadrons in jets are reconstructed using information from the tracking detectors, or a muon-based method where the presence of a muon is used to identify semileptonic decays of b-hadrons inside jets. The inclusive b-jet cross-section is measured as a function of transverse momentum in the range 20 < pT < 400 GeV and rapidity in the range |y| < 2.1. The bb-dijet cross-section is measured as a function of the dijet invariant mass in the range 110 < mjj < 760 GeV, the azimuthal angle difference between the two jets and the angular variable χ in two dijet mass regions. The results are compared with next-to-leading-order QCD predictions. Good agreement is observed between the measured crosssections and the predictions obtained using POWHEG + Pythia. MC@NLO + Herwig shows good agreement with the measured bb-dijet cross-section. However, it does not reproduce the measured inclusive cross-section well, particularly for central b-jets with large transverse momenta.
