Top quark and Electroweak measurements at the Tevatron

TL;DR

This paper reports on recent measurements of top quark properties and electroweak processes at the Tevatron, using larger datasets, confirming consistency with the Standard Model.

Contribution

It provides updated measurements of top quark and electroweak parameters with increased data, improving precision and testing the Standard Model predictions.

Findings

Measurements agree with Standard Model predictions

Enhanced precision due to larger datasets

First preliminary measurements of certain diboson cross sections

Abstract

We present recent preliminary measurements at the Tevatron of t-tbar and single top production cross section, top quark mass and width, top pair spin correlations and forward-backward asymmetry. In the electroweak sector, we present the Tevatron average of the W boson width, and preliminary measurements of the W and Z forward-backward asymmetries and WZ, ZZ diboson production cross sections. All measurements are based on larger amount of collision data than previously used and are in agreement with the standard model.
