1、The particle physics came out and developed with the exploration of the composition of the nature world.The Standard Model which was developed in early 1970s provides us a comprehensive and systematic theory to understan

2、d the particle physics.Many of the prophecies from the Standard Model have been proved by the experiments.Although the Standard Model has made such great successes, there are still many question need to be solved.The LHC

8、i-leptonic channel (one W from top quark decays into leptons and another W from the second top quark decays into two light quarks).After the event selection, to further suppress W+jets and multi-jet backgrounds, I furthe
