Determination of the top-quark pole mass using tt¯tt¯ + 1-jet events collected with the ATLAS experiment in 7 TeV pp collisions

Abstract: The normalized differential cross section for top-quark pair production in association with at least one jet is studied as a function of the inverse of the invariant mass of the tt¯(Formula presented.) + 1-jet system. This distribution can be used for a precise determination of the top-qua...
