چکیده
We report the observation of single top-quark production using 3.2 fb(-1) of pp[over ] collision data with sqrt[s]=1.96 TeV collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The significance of the observed data is 5.0 standard deviations, and the expected sensitivity for standard model production and decay is in excess of 5.9 standard deviations. Assuming m(t) = 175 GeV/c(2), we measure a cross section of 2.3(-0.5);(+0.6)(stat + syst) pb, extract the CKM matrix-element value |V(tb)| = 0.91 + or - 0.11(stat + syst) + or - 0.07(theory), and set the limit |V(tb)| > 0.71 at the 95% C.L.

Effective Hamiltonian of Electroweak Penguin for Hadronic b Quark Decays
In this research we work with the effective Hamiltonian and the quark model. We investigate the decay rates of matter-antimatter of quark. We describe the effective Hamiltonian theory and apply this theory to the calculation of current-current ( ), QCD penguin ( ), magnetic dipole ( ) and electroweak penguin ( ) decay rates. The gluonic penguin structure of hadronic decays is studied thro...

This research, works with the effective Hamiltonian and the quark model. Using, the decay rates of matter-antimatter of b quark was investigated. We described the effective Hamiltonian theory which was applied to the calculation of current-current (Q1,2), QCD penguin (Q3,…,6), magnetic dipole (Q8) and electroweak penguin (Q7,…,10) decay rates. The gluonic penguin structure of hadronic decays ...

The top quark, discovered 1995 at Fermilab, is special among the quarks due to its large mass: Its lifetime is shorter than the characteristic hadronization time scale and therefore top bound states do not have time to form. From a calculational point of view this allows an immediate application of perturbation theory to top physics. Up to now top quarks have only been produced in pairs through...
متن کاملNew Gauge Interactions and Single Top Quark Production
Extensions of the standard model that include new W bosons or extended technicolor gauge bosons can predict sizeable changes in the rate of single top quark production, even when constrained to be consistent with precision electroweak data. We analyze the fractional change in the rate of single top quark production for several classes of models and determine which ones predict an effect visible...

The first search for electroweak single top quark production from the exchange of an s-channel virtual W boson using a data sample composed of events with an imbalance in the total transverse momentum, b-tagged jets, and no identified leptons (/ ET bb̄) is presented. The full CDF II data set, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.45 fb−1 from Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collisio...
متن کاملTop Quark Production and Properties at the Tevatron
The precise measurement of top quark production and properties is one of the primary goals of the Tevatron during Run II. The total tt̄ production crosssection has been measured in a large variety of decay channels and using different selection criteria. Results from differential cross-section measurements and searches for new physics in tt̄ production and top quark decays are available. Electrow...
