Description
Top pair production cross-section measurements and theoretical predictions have achieved unprecedented precision. A review is presented of recent top-quark pair inclusive and differential production cross sections in proton-proton collisions at the LHC at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, using data collected by the CMS experiment in the years 2011 and 2012. The differential cross-sections are measured as functions of various kinematic observables. All results are compared with theoretical predictions.
