Top Quark Physics

oral

We give an overview of measurements of properties of the top quark and searches for new physics in the top sector by the D0 experiment. We show data of an integrated luminosity of up to 5.3 fb-1 recorded at a centre-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. Highlights are measurements of the top-anti-top quark pair production cross section, of top quark couplings and width, of the top-anti-top quark...

Observation of Top-Quark Production at 7TeV Contributed to be given at HQL2010: Heavy Quarks and Leptons 2010, 11-15 Oct 2010, Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati dell'INFN, Frascati (Italy) The talk is proposed to cms conf. comm.. Abstract The top quark is a fundamental building block of the standard model. Due to the large cross section, top quarks will be copiously produced in high energy...

51. Understanding backgrounds towards a first measurement of the top quark pair cross-section at ATLAS

Top Quark Physics

oral

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...

80. Prospects for Top Quark Studies with CMS for up to 1fb-1

Top Quark Physics

oral

The first long physics run of LHC is currently taking place at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, and expected to go on until an integrated luminosity of 1 inverse femtobarn will have been collected. The CMS potential for Top quark studies with this initial dataset is discussed, with emphasis on searches for new particles decaying into top-antitop pairs, measurements of the heavy flavour...
