Inclusive $t\bar{t}$ cross-section measurements at LHC

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2017-11-21 v1

Abstract

A review of ATLAS and CMS measurements of the inclusive ttˉt\bar{t} production cross-section in pppp collisions at s=\sqrt{s}=7-13 TeV is presented, focusing on the most precise results in the dilepton and lepton+jets final states. The measurements are in good agreement with state-of-the-art QCD predictions, and have been used to determine the top quark pole mass and provide constraints on proton parton distribution functions.
