This Letter presents a measurement of the charge asymmetry in events where the top-quark pair is produced with a large invariant mass. The analysis is performed on 20.3fb−1of ppcollision data at √s=8 TeVcollected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, using reconstruction techniques specifically designed for the decay topology of highly boosted top quarks. The charge asymmetry in a fiducial region with large invariant mass of the top-quark pair (mt¯t>0.75TeV) and an absolute rapidity difference of the top and anti-top quark candidates within −2 <|yt| −|y¯t| <2is measured to be 4.2 ±3.2%, in agreement with the Standard Model prediction at next-to-leading order. A differential measurement in three t¯tmass bins is also presented. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/108769 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.physletb.2016.02.055 | Direitos: | openAccess |
