Abstract

With data collected during the first half of the 2011 pp run of the Large Hadron Collider at \(\sqrt{s} = 7\) TeV, a substantial data sample of high p T triggers, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.08 fb − 1, has been collected by the ATLAS detector. Measurements of the production of top-quark pairs and single top quarks in different channels, the top-quark mass, the top-quark pair charge asymmetry and spin correlations, and the W helicity fractions in top-quark decays are presented, as well as two searches for new physics effects involving top-quark pairs.
