- Abstract
- The observation of the electroweak production of single-top-quarks is made using 255 pb−1 of proton-proton collision data recorded at s=5.02 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. An event selection is used to identify single-top-quark candidates arising from t-channel production with the top quark decaying semi-leptonically. Events passing the selection are then used to measure the inclusive cross-section for the combined production of single-top-quarks and antiquarks, σ(tq+t¯q), and the ratio Rt between these two. They are measured to be σ(tq+t¯q)=27.1−4.1 +4.4(stat.)−3.7 +4.4(syst.) pb and Rt=2.73−0.82 +1.43(stat.)−0.29 ... (More)

All measurements are in good agreement with the Standard Model predictions. © 2024 The Author(s) (Less)
