Measurements of normalized differential cross sections for tt¯ production in pp collisions at √(s)=7 TeV using the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +2857 more

Abstract: Measurements of normalized differential cross sections for top-quark pair production are presented as a function of the top-quark transverse momentum, and of the mass, transverse momentum, and rapidity of the t (t) over bar system, in proton proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of root s = 7 TeV. The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb(-1), recorded in 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Events are selected in the lepton jets channel, requiring exactly one lepton and at least four jets with at least one of the jets tagged as originating from a b-quark. The measured spectra are corrected for detector efficiency and resolution effects and are compared to several Monte Carlo simulations and theory calculations. The results are in fair agreement with the predictions in a wide kinematic range. Nevertheless, data distributions are softer than predicted for higher values of the mass of the t (t) over bar system and of the top-quark transverse momentum. The measurements can also discriminate among different sets of parton distribution functions.

Measurement of CP-violating asymmetries in B0 decays to CP eigenstates.

Bernard Aubert, +743 more
- 19 Mar 2001 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the amplitude of the CP-violating asymmetry in neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates was measured using a data sample of 23x10(6) Upsilon(4S)->BbarB decays collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC.
