"Inclusive and differential measurements of the tt¯ charge asymmetry in proton–proton collisions at √s=7 TeV." <i>Physics Letters B,</i> 717, no. 1-3 (2012) Elsevier: 129-150. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2012.09.028.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/80921The tt¯ charge asymmetry is measured in events containing a charged lepton (electron or muon) and at least four jets, one of which is identified as originating from b-quark hadronization. The analyzed dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb−1 collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. An inclusive and three differential measurements of the tt¯ charge asymmetry as a function of rapidity, transverse momentum, and invariant mass of the tt¯ system are presented. The measured inclusive tt¯ charge asymmetry is AC=0.004±0.010(stat.)±0.011(syst.). This result and the three differential measurements are consistent with zero asymmetry as well as with the predictions of the standard model.engOpen access under CC BY-NC-ND licenseJournal articleCMSphysicstop quarkasymmetryBSMhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2012.09.028
