چکیده

We report on a search for charged massive resonances decaying to top (t) and bottom (b) quarks in the full data set of proton-antiproton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √[s]=1.96  TeV collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.5  fb(-1). No significant excess above the standard model background prediction is observed. We set 95% Bayesian credibility mass-dependent upper limits on the heavy charged-particle production cross section times branching ratio to tb. Using a standard model extension with a W'→tb and left-right-symmetric couplings as a benchmark model, we constrain the W' mass and couplings in the 300-900  GeV/c(2) range. The limits presented here are the most stringent for a charged resonance with mass in the range 300-600  GeV/c(2) decaying to top and bottom quarks.

Searches for Resonances Decaying to Top

The top quark was discovered in 1995 by the CDF and D0 collaborations [2, 3]. During Run I (1992-1996) both experiments collected a data set of about 125 pb. In 2001 Run II has started operating with a center-of-mass-energy of √ s = 1.96 TeV and an increased luminosity. One of the main aims is to further investigate the properties of top quarks. End of 2006 there was first evidence for single t...

Search for resonances decaying into top quark pairs with ATLAS

Some models, including the so-called Randall-Sundrum model, predict the existence of heavy Kaluza-Klein resonances decaying mainly into top quarks. The prospects to discover those resonances in the ATLAS experiment at the LHC are discussed. Special emphasis is given to the techniques used to identify and reconstruct top quarks at high-pT.

Search for New Particles Decaying to Dijets , bb̄ , and tt̄ at CDF

We present three searches for new particles at CDF. First, using 70 pb of data we search the dijet mass spectrum for resonances. There is an upward fluctuation near 550 GeV/c (2.6σ) with an angular distribution that is adequately described by either QCD alone or QCD plus 5% signal. There is insufficient evidence to claim a signal, but we set the most stringent mass limits on the hadronic decays...

Cdf Note 5270 . New Physics with Cdf in Run I and Run Ii 1 Supersymmetric Top and Bottom Searches

We present here recent CDF searches for new phenomena in Run I data. The scalar top and scalar bottom quarks searches are described in the framework of supersymmetric models. We also discuss CDF limits on the Higgs boson and continuum and resonantly produced leptoquarks. Run II starting in March 2001 will allow us to considerably improve the Tevatron reach in all these channels. The Tevatron is...

Top Physics Results from Cdf

The top quark is by far the most massive fundamental particle observed so far, and the study of its properties is interesting for several reasons ranging from its possible special role in electroweak symmetry breaking to its sensitivity to physics beyond the Standard Model. We present recent top physics results from CDF based on 160-320 pb −1 of p¯ p collision data at √ s = 1.96 TeV. The t ¯ t ...

Search for New Resonances Decaying to a Top and a Bottom Quark in p Collisions at s = 1.96 TeV

This note reports on a search for W ′-like resonances decaying to tb in the full data set of proton-antiproton collisions at √ s = 1.96 TeV recorded by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.5 fb−1. No significant excess above SM prediction is found. Using a benchmark W ′ → tb left-right symmetric model, we place 95% C.L. mass-dependent upper limits ...
