Simultaneous Top Pair Production Cross Section and W Heavy Flavor Fraction Measurement — Anna Henrichs, •Adam Roe, Arnulf Quadt, and Elizaveta Shabalina — II. Physikalisches Institut, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen
A measurement of the tt production cross section with a simultaneous measurement of the W heavy flavor fractions is performed in the l+jets channel at √s = 7 TeV using a profile likelihood fit to a single flavor-sensitive variable with the summer 2011 dataset taken by the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.7 fb−1. The input and method, including evaluation of uncertainties, are described.
