Description

The top quark pair production cross-section is a strong test of the Standard Model. Measurements of both the total and differential cross section with the ATLAS detector at the LHC performed using data with center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV are presented. The analyses were with on final states featuring no, one or two high-$p_T$ electrons or muons. Additionally analyses with $\tau$-leptons in the final states are presented.
