The Standard Model (SM) of Particle Physics is a quantum field theory developed in the 1960's to explain the behaviour of elementary particles and the fundamental forces that …
Abstract The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a factory for top quarks, which are the heaviest elementary particle discovered so far. Due to its small life time a top quark decays before …

This document reviews the existing results of inclusive top quark pair production cross section measurements in proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energies of 7 and 8 …
The study of the top quark physics covers a large part of the ATLAS experiment physics program and represents an active research field for the theoretical community. In this thesis …
As heavy as an atom of gold but much smaller than a proton, the top quark is the most massive fundamental particle known in the universe and an integral part of current particle …
The field of Elementary Particle Physics is concerned with understanding the most fundamental building blocks of Nature and their interactions. The Standard Model of Particle …
The Standard Model of particle physics is a theory developed in an attempt to understand and explain the fundamental constituents of matter and their interactions. Until now, it has …
Before any kind of new physics discovery could be made at the LHC, a precise understanding and measurement of the Standard Model of particle physics' processes was …
Top quark production cross-section measurements Measurements of the inclusive and differential cross-sections for top-quark pair and single top production cross sections in …
