Single Top Production at the Tevatron
A. Gresele
TL;DR
This paper reports on searches for single top quark production via electroweak processes at the Tevatron, using data from CDF and D0, but finds no significant evidence and sets upper limits on the production cross section.
Contribution
First combined search for single top production at the Tevatron using data from both CDF and D0 detectors.
Findings
No significant evidence for single top production
Upper limits set on production cross section
Data samples of 0.7 fb-1 (CDF) and 370 pb-1 (D0) used
Abstract
We report on a search for Standard Model t-channel ans s-channel single top quark production in p-pbar collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV. We use a data sample corresponding to 0.7 fb-1 recorded by the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDFII) and a data sample corresponding to 370 pb-1 recorded by D0. Both CDF and D0 find no significant evidence for electroweak top quark production and set upper limits at the 95 % confidence level on the production cross section
