<br/><br/> The top quark is unique as compared to all other quarks because it decays before hadronized and<br/>is one of the massive known elementary particles. The top quark is an intriguing particle,<br/>massive and fleeting in which continues to provide a broad range of interesting research topic.<br/>This thesis has four parts, and the first chapter contains the literature review which includes the<br/>brief overview of standard model, basic terminology and some experimental parameters<br/>regarding particle physics. The second one includes the detail description of the different subsystem of the ATLAS detector<br/>Chapter three focuses on the different production modes of top quark like single top quark and<br/>top quark produced in pair.<br/>Chapter four discuss the samples, event selection and tt̄ cross-section measurement at their<br/>respective energies of 7,8 and 12 TeV. The measured cross-section and uncertainties are<br/>presented and compared to theoretical prediction based on standerd model.
