The resulting combined LHC measurements of the inclusive charge asymmetry are $A_{\\mathrm{C}}^{\\mathrm{LHC7}} = 0.005 \\pm0.007 \\text{ (stat)}\\pm0.006 \\text{ (syst)}$ at 7 TeV and $A_{\\mathrm{C}}^{\\mathrm{LHC8}} = 0.0055 \\pm0.0023\\text{ (stat)}\\pm0.0025\\text{ (syst)}$ at 8 TeV. These values, as well as the combination of $A_{\\mathrm{C}}$ measurements as a function of the invariant mass of the $\\mathrm{t}\\overline{\\mathrm{t}}$ system at 8 TeV, are consistent with the respective standard model predictions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-09-15T17:44:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "charge asymmetry measurements", "cms data", "combination", "differential", "respective standard model predictions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
