Abstract:

The LHC produces a large amount of top quarks, both through pair production and electro-weak single top processes. The latest ATLAS single top cross-section results at 7TeV are presented for the s,t and Wt production channels. Several different techniques are used to differentiate the single top signal from the large backgrounds.
