Some Thoughts on the Mass of the Top Quark*

چکیده

We propose a new mechanism for up-down symmetry breaking within the context of a technicolor scenario. The experimentally determined ratio VM cost3 z w = 1 is in addition preserved at the technicolor scale. If we assume that the mechanism works at the level of the heaviest generation we find m t = (f-%)38 GeV. The parameter f depends on strong technicolor dynamics and can in principle be determined. Via a crude estimate we find f to be a number of order 1.

Search for supersymmetry in top final states at CMS

A search for SUSY using the top quark plus missing transverse energy (MET), in a low mass mSUGRA test point is performed. A two–constraints kinematic fit is utilized to extract the top quark, either b-jet the ones that is recognizable or it is not recognizable. It is shown that for point LM1, for the former situation, a 5σ excess can be achieved with 30 pb-1 and for the latter situation, it can...

Multi fluidity and Solitary wave stability in cold quark matter: core of dense astrophysical objects

Considering the magneto-hydrodynamic equations in a non-relativistic multi uid framework, we study the behavior of small amplitude perturbations in cold quark matter. Magneto-hydrodynamic equations, along with a suitable equation of state for the cold quark matter, are expanded using the reductive perturbation method. It is shown that in small amplitude approximation, such a medium should be co...

On Measuring the top quark mass using the dilepton decay modes ∗

We demonstrate a new likelihood method for extracting the top quark mass from events of the type tt̄ → bW(lepton+ ν)b̄W−(lepton+ ν). This method estimates the top quark mass correctly from an ensemble of dilepton events. The method proposed by Dalitz and Goldstein [1] is shown to result in a systematic underestimation of the top quark mass. Effects due to the spin correlations between the top and...

On Observing Top Quark Production at the Tevatron

A technique for separating top quark production from Standard Model background events is introduced. It is applicable to the channel in which one top quark decays semi-leptonically and its anti-quark decays hadronically into three jets, or vice versa. The method is shown to discriminate dramatically between Monte Carlo generated events with and without simulated top quarks of mass around 120 Ge...

Top-Bottom Color and Weak Doublets Seesaw∗

A brief overview of some of the last decade’s developments in the Topmode/Topcolor class of models is presented. In addition, a new Topcolor type scenario, named Top-Bottom Color, is suggested. A seesaw mechanism with new weak doublet quarks has been introduced to lower the previous theoretical prediction for the large top quark mass; without a seesaw mechanism and with a low scale of Nambu Jon...
