Abstract

A measurement of the top-antitop (tt) charge asymmetry is presented using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb −1 of LHC pp collisions at a centre- of-mass energy of 7 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector. Events with two charged leptons, at least two jets and large missing transverse momentum are selected. Two observables are studied: A tt/C, based on the reconstructed tt final state. The asymmetries are measured to be
A ll/C = 0.024 +/- 0.015 (stat.) +/- 0.009 (syst.)
Att/C = 0.021 +/- 0.025 (stat.) +/- 0.017 (syst.)
The measured values are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions.
