Determination of the strong coupling constant $$\alpha _s \left( m_Z \right) $$ α s m Z from measurements of the total cross section for top–antitop-quark production
Abstract We present a determination of the strong coupling constant $$\alpha _s \left( m_Z \right) $$ α s m Z using inclusive top-quark pair production cross section measurements performed at the LHC and at the Tevatron. Following a procedure first applied by the CMS Collaboration, we extract indivi...
