From the sublime to the ridiculous : top physics and minimum bias events in the ATLAS detector at the LHC
This thesis is comprised of two separate physics themes, both of which involve the ATLAS detector situated at the LHC at CERN. The first constituent is a study of the top quark signal in the fully-leptonic channel for proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 10 TeV. Here an event count...
