Abstract: The inclusive top quark pair ( t t ¯ ) cross-section σ t t ¯ has been measured in proton–proton collisions at s = 13 TeV , using 140 fb - 1 of data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Using events with an opposite-charge e μ pair and b-tagged jets, the cross-section is measured to be: σ t t ¯ = 829.3 ± 1.3 (stat) ± 8.0 (syst) ± 7.3 (lumi) ± 1.9 (beam) pb , where the uncertainties reflect the limited size of the data sample, experimental and theoretical systematic effects, the integrated luminosity, and the proton beam energy, giving a total uncertainty of 1.3%. The result is used to determine the top quark pole mass via the dependence of the predicted cross-section on m t pole , giving m t pole = 172. 8 - 1.7 + 1.5 GeV. The same event sample is used to measure absolute and normalised differential cross-sections for the t t ¯ → e μ ν ν ¯ b b ¯ process as a function of single-lepton and dilepton kinematic variables. Complementary measurements of e μ b b ¯ production, treating both t t ¯ and Wt events as signal, are also provided. Both sets of differential cross-sections are compared to the predictions of various Monte Carlo event generators, demonstrating that the state-of-the-art generators Powheg MiNNLO and Powhegbb4l describe the data better than Powheghvq.
