Three differential measurements are performed as a function of the invariant mass, transverse momentum and longitudinal boost of the tt̅ system. The tt̅ pairs are selected in the single-lepton channels (e or μ) with at least four jets, and a likelihood fit is used to reconstruct the tt̅ event kinematics. A Bayesian unfolding procedure is performed to infer the asymmetry at parton level from the observed data distribution. The inclusive tt̅ charge asymmetry is measured to be A_C = 0.009 ± 0.005 (stat. + syst.). The inclusive and differential measurements are compatible with the values predicted by the Standard Model.CC BY 4.0 (Attribution)©2016 CERN, for the ATLAS Collaborationhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/QuarksCharge-parity asymmetryLeptons (Nuclear physics)Jets (Nuclear physics)Proton-proton interactionsarticleAad, G., B.
