Measurement of the top quark pair production cross-section with ATLAS in the single lepton channel
A measurement of the production cross-section for top quark pairs (tt-) in pp collisions at s=7TeV is presented using data recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Events are selected in the single lepton topology by requiring an electron or muon, large missing transverse momen...
