Title: Measurement of the top quark properties Author: Mgr. Jaroslava Schovancová Department: Institute of Physics, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Re- public Supervisor: RNDr. Jiří Chudoba, Ph.D., Institute of Physics, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic Abstract: This Thesis presents the ATLAS experiment measurement of the top quark differential cross-section as a function of pT, mass and rapidity of the t¯t system. A sample of approx. 4.7 fb−1 of the 2011 pp collision data at the center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV was analyzed. The differential spectra shapes in the t¯t system are consistent with the Standard Model and reason- ably described by the event generators. Several activities in the scope of ATLAS Distributed Computing are pre- sented, particularly in the area of operations, monitoring, automation, and development of the PanDA Workload Management System. Such activities aim to improve efficiency and facilitate the use of distributed computing re- sources and therefore contribute in supporting the ATLAS Physics Program. Keywords: ATLAS, top quark, differential cross-section, missing transverse energy, ATLAS Distributed Computing
