Description
Several Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) theories predict the
existence of new resonances that decay into ttbar pairs.
We describe a search for such resonances using lepton plus
jet data collected by the ATLAS experiment in pp collisions
at Sqrt(s)=7 TeV. The selection criteria and search method
are presented. In the absence of signal, we produce
95% CL limits on the production cross section times
branching ratio of resonances predicted by a few such
BSM models.
