| contents | This talk presents the ATLAS Collaboration's first measurement of the inclusive cross-section for top-quark pair production in association with charm quarks. Using the full Run 2 proton-proton collision data sample at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV, collected with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC between 2015 and 2018, the measurement selects $t\bar{t}$ events with one or two charged leptons and at least one additional jet in the final state. A custom flavour-tagging algorithm is employed to simultaneously identify $b$-jets and $c$-jets. The fiducial cross-sections for $t\bar{t}+{\geq}2c$ and $t\bar{t}+1c$ production are found to largely agree with predictions from various $t\bar{t}$ simulations, though all underpredict the observed values. |
