This thesis introduces readers to the Standard Model, the top quark
and its properties, before explaining the concept of spin
correlation measurement. The first measurement of top quark spin
correlations at the LHC in the lepton+jets decay channel is
presented. As the heaviest elementary particle, the top quark plays
an essential role in the Standard Model of elementary particle
physics. In the case of top quarks being produced in pairs at
hadron colliders, the Standard Model predicts their spins to be
correlated. The degree of correlation depends on both the
production mechanism and properties of the top quark. Any deviation
from the Standard Model prediction can be an indicator for new
physics phenomena. The thesis employs an advanced top quark
reconstruction algorithm including dedicated identification of the
up- and down-type quarks from the W boson decay.
