Measurement of double-differential cross sections for top quark pair production in pp collisions at √s=8 Tev and impact on parton distribution functions

Normalized double-differential cross sections for top quark pair ( tt¯ ) production are measured in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV with the CMS experiment at the LHC. The analyzed data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb⁻¹ . The measurement is performed in the dilept...
