Search for resonances decaying into top-quark pairs using fully hadronic decays in pp collisions with ATLAS at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV

ATLAS Collaboration

Understand

A search for resonances produced in 7 TeV proton-proton collisions and decaying into top-quark pairs is described.

In this Letter events where the top-quark decay produces two massive jets with large transverse momenta recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider are considered.
Two techniques that rely on jet substructure are used to separate top-quark jets from those arising from light quarks and gluons.
In addition, each massive jet is required to have evidence of an associated bottom-quark decay.
