چکیده
Top quark pair production cross section and properties of the top quark in p ¯ p collisions at √ s = 1.96 TeV An overview over measurements of top quark pair production in p ¯ p collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √ s = 1.96 TeV is given. Emphasis is given to measurements of the t ¯ t cross section in lepton+jets and dilepton final states with up to 5.4 fb −1 of integrated luminosity. Examples of measurements of top quark properties such as a measurement of the top quark branching ratio, a search for flavor changing neutral current couplings in top quark decays and an extraction of the top quark pole and MS mass using the t ¯ t cross section are presented.

Top Quark Production Dynamics in Qcd *
A calculation of the total cross section for top quark production in hadronhadron collisions is presented based on an all-orders perturbative resummation of initial-state gluon radiative contributions to the basic quantum chromodynamics subprocesses. Principal-value resummation is used to evaluate all relevant large threshold contributions. In this method there are no arbitrary infrared cutoffs...

متن کاملMeasurement of differential tt̄ production cross sections in pp̄ collisions
Measurement of differential t ¯ t production cross sections in p ¯ p collisions The production of top quark-antiquark pair events in p¯ p collisions at √ s = 1.96 TeV is studied as a function of the transverse momentum and absolute value of the rapidity of the top quarks as well as of the invariant mass of the t ¯ t pair. We select events containing an isolated lepton, a large imbalance in tran...

We report a combination of the CDF and D0 measurements of the inclusive single top quark production cross section in the sand t-channels, σs+t, in pp̄ 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 multivaria...

Preliminary and published results obtained by the DØ Collaboration on the top quark pair production cross-section in p ¯ p collisions at a center-of-mass energy of ¡ s ¢ 1£ 96 TeV are presented. The measurements are obtained using the lepton+jets final states with two methods : in the first one, signal is discriminated from background using event kinematics and in the other method signal events...
