Top pair cross section measurements at the LHC
The most recent results on the measurements of (tt) production and cross sections at 7 TeV are presented. These are obtained using CMS [1] and ATLAS [2] data collected in 2011. Recent results on the tt production cross section at 8 TeV using 2012 CMS data are also presented. The tt inclusive cross sections are measured in the lepton+jets, dilepton and fully hadronic channels, including the tau-dilepton and tau+jets modes. The results are combined and confronted with precise theory calculations.
