Description

Measurements of inclusive and differential cross-sections of top-quark production in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider are presented. Single top-quark and top-quark pair final states as well as top-quark production in association with heavy flavor jets, vector bosons and a photon are discussed.The measurements reach high precision and are compared to the most precise available theoretical calculations.
