| Description | HE Seminar Speaker: Jean-Francois Arguin (LBL) Title: Toward a sensitive measurement of the top quark charge asymmetry at the LHC Host: Maxwell Chertok Room: 416 Recent measurements of the top quark charge asymmetry performed at both CDF and DZero produced tantalizing deviations from the SM prediction. Given that the dataset for these analyses will not improved dramatically, decisive confirmations will be required by the LHC experiments. After reviewing the measurements performed at the Tevatron, I will discuss the challenges to perform these measurements at the LHC by describing the ATLAS measurement. In particular I will describe how one needs to exploit the large datasets of top quarks at the LHC to compensate for the difficulty to perform such a measurement in a symmetric proton-proton collider environment. |
