TY - JOUR 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.

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).
