T1  - Measurement of \(t\overline t\) production with a veto on additional central jet activity in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV using the ATLAS detector
JF  - European Physical Journal C
N2  - A measurement of the jet activity in \(t\overline t\) events produced in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV is presented, using 2.05 fb\(^{−1}\) of integrated luminosity collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The \(t\overline t\) events are selected in the dilepton decay channel with two identified b-jets from the top quark decays. Events are vetoed if they contain an additional jet with transverse momentum above a threshold in a central rapidity interval. The fraction of events surviving the jet veto is presented as a function of this threshold for four different central rapidity interval definitions. An alternate measurement is also performed, in which events are vetoed if the scalar transverse momentum sum of the additional jets in each rapidity interval is above a threshold. In both measurements, the data are corrected for detector effects and compared to the theoretical models implemented in MC@NLO, Powheg, Alpgen and Sherpa. The experimental uncertainties are often smaller than the spread of theoretical predictions, allowing deviations between data and theory to be observed in some regions of phase space.

T1  - Measurement of the top quark mass with the template method in the \(t\overline t\)→lepton+jets channel using ATLAS data
JF  - The European Physical Journal C
N2  - 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. The data were taken at a proton-proton centre-of-mass energy of √s=7 TeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 1.04 fb\(^{−1}\). The analyses in the e+jets and μ+jets decay channels yield consistent results. The top quark mass is measured to be m\(_{top}\)=174.5±0.6\(_{stat}\)±2.3\(_{syst}\) GeV.
