Direct top-quark decay width measurement in the tt¯ lepton+jets channel at √s=8TeV with the ATLAS experiment

This paper presents a direct measurement of the decay width of the top quark using tt¯ events in the lepton+jets final state. The data sample was collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of...
