Description
Measurements of the top quark production cross sections in proton proton
collisions with the
ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider are presented. The measurement require no, one
or two electrons or muons in the final state (single lepton, dilepton, hadronic channel).
In addition, the decay modes with tau leptons are tested (channels with tau leptons). The main
focus are measurements of differential spectra of ttbar final states, in particular, measurements
that are able to constrain the modelling of additional parton radiation like the jet multiplicity
distribution.
