A search for tt̄ resonances in lepton+jets events with highly boosted top quarks collected in pp collisions at √s = 7TeV with the ATLAS detector

A search for resonant production of high-mass top-quark pairs is performed on 2.05 fb -1 of proton-proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV collected in 2011 with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. This analysis of the lepton+jets final state is specifically designed for the particular topolo...
