Description
Top-quark pairs are expected to be produced copiously at the LHC, even at the lower
beam energy and luminosity expected in the first years of running. Establishing the
top-pair signal and measuring the production cross-section are important benchmarks
for ATLAS, and will help understand the detector performance for events with high-pT
leptons, high jet multiplicity, missing transverse energy and b-jets. The prospects
for these early top physics measurements will be shown, with a particular
emphasis on the progress achieved with data so far.
