Measurements of the Top Quark at the Tevatron Collider

Description

The authors present recent preliminary measurements of the top-antitop pair production cross section and determinations of the top quark pole mass, performed using the data collected by the CDF and D0 Collaborations at the Tevatron Collider. In the lepton plus jets final state, with semileptonic B decay, the pair production cross section has now been measured at CDF using ∼ 760 pb-1 of proton-antiproton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √s = 1.96 TeV. A measurement of the production cross section has also been made with ∼ 1 fb-1 of data in the all-jets final state by the CDF Collaboration. The mass of the top quark has now been measured using ∼ 1 fb-1 of collision data using all decay channels of the top quark pair, yielding the most precise measurements of the top mass to date
