Abstract

The differential cross-section for pair production of top quarks with high transverse momentum is measured in $20.3 {fb}^{- 1}$ of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The measurement is performed for $t \bar{t}$ events in the $lepton + jets$ channel. The cross-section is reported as a function of the hadronically decaying top quark transverse momentum for values above 300 GeV. The hadronically decaying top quark is reconstructed as an anti- $k_{t}$ jet with radius parameter $R = 1.0$ and identified with jet substructure techniques. The observed yield is corrected for detector effects to obtain a cross-section at particle level in a fiducial region close to the event selection. A parton-level cross-section extrapolated to the full phase space is also reported for top quarks with transverse momentum above 300 GeV. The predictions of a majority of next-to-leading-order and leading-order matrix-element Monte Carlo generators are found to agree with the measured cross-sections.
