Top Quark Rapidity Distribution and Forward-backward Asymmetry
I present results for the top quark rapidity distribution at LHC and Tevatron energies, including higher-order corrections from threshold resummation. The next-tonext-to-leading-order (NNLO) soft-gluon corrections at next-to-next-to-leading-logarithm (NNLL) level are added to the NLO result. Theoretical predictions are shown for the rapidity distribution, including the scale dependence of the d...

متن کاملThe Top Quark Forward-backward Asymmetry at Approximate N3LO
I calculate the top quark forward-backward asymmetry at the Tevatron in both the laboratory frame and the tt̄ rest frame. I show that soft-gluon corrections are the dominant contribution to the asymmetry and closely approximate exact results through next-tonext-to-leading order (NNLO). I present a calculation of the asymmetry including approximate next-to-next-to-next-to-leading-order (N3LO) sof...
متن کاملTop quark forward-backward asymmetry and same-sign top quark pairs.
The top quark forward-backward asymmetry measured at the Tevatron collider shows a large deviation from standard model expectations. Among possible interpretations, a nonuniversal Z' model is of particular interest as it naturally predicts a top quark in the forward region of large rapidity. To reproduce the size of the asymmetry, the couplings of the Z' to standard model quarks must be large, ...
متن کاملTop Quark Pair Production Cross Section and Forward-Backward Asymmetry at the Tevatron
The study of top quark pair production at the Tevatron is now entering the realm of precision physics. With 2.8 fb−1 of CDF data there are over 1200 reconstructed tt̄ events in the lepton + jets channel. As the integrated luminosity increases, it is possible to improve not only measurements of the properties of the top quark but also maybe to search for new physics by comparing the tt̄ cross sect...
