Measurements of fiducial cross-sections for $$t\bar{t}$$ production with one or two additional b-jets in pp collisions at $$\sqrt{s}$$ =8 TeV using the ATLAS detector

Journal Article · · European Physical Journal. C, Particles and Fields

Fiducial cross-sections for $$t\bar{t}$$ production with one or two additional b-jets are reported, using an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb-1 of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider, collected with the ATLAS detector.
