The search uses a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.05 fb\(^{-1}\), which was recorded in 2011 at a proton-proton centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. No evidence for a resonance is found and limits are set on the production cross-section times branching ratio to \(t\overline t\) for narrow and wide resonances. For narrow Z′ bosons, the observed 95 \% Bayesian credibility level limits range from 9.3 pb to 0.95 pb for masses in the range of m Z′=500 GeV to m\(_{Z′}\)=1300 GeV. The corresponding excluded mass region for a leptophobic topcolour Z′ boson (Kaluza-Klein gluon excitation in the Randall-Sundrum model) is m\(_{Z′}\)<880 GeV (m\(_{gKK}\)<1130 GeV).}, language = {en} } @article{OPUS4-12891, title = {Measurement of the top quark mass with the template method in the \(t\overline t\)→lepton+jets channel using ATLAS data}, series = {The European Physical Journal C}, volume = {72}, journal = {The European Physical Journal C}, number = {2046}, organization = {ATLAS Collaboration}, doi = {10.1140/epjc/s10052-012-2046-6}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-128912}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The top quark mass has been measured using the template method in the \(t\overline t\)→lepton+jets channel based on data recorded in 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the LHC.
