Abstract
Measurements are made of differential cross-sections of highly boosted pair-produced top quarks as a function of top-quark and t ¯ t system kinematic observables using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √ s = 13 TeV . The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb − 1 , recorded in 2015 and 2016 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Events with two large-radius jets in the final state, one with transverse momentum p T > 500 GeV and a second with p T > 350 GeV , are used for the measurement. The top-quark candidates are separated from the multijet background using jet substructure information and association with a b -tagged jet. The measured spectra are corrected for detector effects to a particle-level fiducial phase space and a parton-level limited phase space, and are compared to several Monte Carlo simulations by means of calculated χ 2 values. The cross-section for t ¯ t production in the fiducial phase-space region is 292 ± 7 ( stat ) ± 71 ( syst ) fb , to be compared to the theoretical prediction of 384 ± 36 fb .
