Cdf and D∅ Top Quark Cross Section Measurements
نویسنده
چکیده
Preliminary results of t ¯ t cross section measurements and single top exclusion limits of the Tevatron experiments CDF and D∅ are presented. The different measurements are based on a dataset between 140 and 200 pb −1 corresponding to a data taking period from spring 2002 to September 2004. The t ¯ t cross section measurements are consistent with each other and the Standard Model prediction. Data and Monte-Carlo prediction are in good agreement in the search for single top quark. Its observation is anticipated with roughly 2 fb −1 integrated luminosity.

I summarize recent top quark physics results from the Fermilab Tevatron experiments. Since the observation of the top quark by CDF and D0 in 1995, the experimental focus has shifted to a detailed study of the top quark’s properties. This article describes recent measurements of the top quark production cross section, mass, kinematic properties, branching ratios, Vtb, and the W polarization in t...

We report a combination of the CDF and D0 measurements of the inclusive single top quark production cross section in the sand t-channels, σ s+t , in p¯ p collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV. The total integrated luminosity included in CDF's analysis is 3.2 fb −1 and D0's analysis has 2.3 fb −1. A Bayesian analysis is used to extract the cross section from the distributions of mult...

متن کاملuse TOP PHYSICS FROM RUN 1 AND RUN 2 PROSPECTS AT CDF
We present a summary of top quark physics results from Run 1 at CDF using the Run 1 data sample of 106 pb −1. In addition to the precursory measurements of the top quark mass and t ¯ t cross section, we have performed a number of other analyses which test the consistency of the t ¯ t data sample with the standard model (SM). Deviations from SM expectations could provide hints for new physics. W...
