Measurement of the tt̅ production cross section in pp collisions at √s=7  TeV in dilepton final states containing a τ

The top quark pair production cross section is measured in dilepton events with one electron or muon, and one hadronically decaying τ lepton from the decay tt̅ →(ℓν[subscript ℓ])(τ[subscript h]ν[subscript τ])bb̅ , (ℓ=e,μ). The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 2.0  fb[superscrip...
