No excess above the Standard Model background expectation is observed and a 95 \% confidence level visible cross-section upper limit for new phenomena is set. In the framework of gauge-mediated SUSY-breaking models, lower limits on the mass scale Λ are set at 54 TeV in the regions where the \(\tilde τ_1\) is the next-to-lightest SUSY particle (tanβ>20). These limits provide the most stringent tests to date of GMSB models in a large part of the parameter space considered.}, language = {en} } @article{OPUS4-12890, title = {Measurement of the charge asymmetry in top quark pair production in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV using the ATLAS detector}, series = {The European Physical Journal C}, volume = {72}, journal = {The European Physical Journal C}, number = {2039}, organization = {ATLAS Collaboration}, doi = {10.1140/epjc/s10052-012-2039-5}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-128904}, year = {2012}, abstract = {A measurement of the top-antitop production charge asymmetry A C is presented using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.04 fb\(^{-1}\) of pp collisions at √s=7 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Events are selected with a single lepton (electron or muon), missing transverse momentum and at least four jets of which at least one jet is identified as coming from a b-quark. A kinematic fit is used to reconstruct the t\(\overline t\) event topology. After background subtraction, a Bayesian unfolding procedure is performed to correct for acceptance and detector effects. The measured value of A\(_C\) is AC=-0.019±0.028 (stat.)±0.024 (syst.), consistent with the prediction from the MC@NLO Monte Carlo generator of A\(_C\) =0.006±0.002. Measurements of A\(_C\) in two ranges of invariant mass of the top-antitop pair are also shown.}, language = {en} }
