      abstract     = {This Letter presents a search at the LHC for s -channel
                      single top-quark production in proton–proton collisions at
                      a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The analyzed data set was
                      recorded by the ATLAS detector and corresponds to an
                      integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb −1 . Selected events
                      contain one charged lepton, large missing transverse
                      momentum and exactly two b -tagged jets. A multivariate
                      event classifier based on boosted decision trees is
                      developed to discriminate s -channel single top-quark events
                      from the main background contributions. The signal
                      extraction is based on a binned maximum-likelihood fit of
                      the output classifier distribution. The analysis leads to an
                      upper limit on the s -channel single top-quark production
                      cross-section of 14.6 pb at the $95\%$ confidence level. The
                      fit gives a cross-section of σs=5.0±4.3 pb , consistent
                      with the Standard Model expectation.},
