Description
Measurements of the inclusive and differential topquark pair cross sections in protonproton collisions at both 8 and 13 TeV
with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider are presented. The inclusive measurements reach high precision and are
compared to the best available theoretical calculations. Differential measurements of the kinematic properties of the top quark
production are also discussed. These measurements, including results using boosted tops, probe our understanding of top pair
production in the TeV regime. The results, unfolded to particle and parton level, are compared to Monte Carlo generators
implementing LO and NLO matrix elements matched with parton showers and NNLO QCD calculations.
