Description

We present the results of a detailed study of the effects of b tagging on the heavy top-quark signal and backgrounds for the modes of the dilepton plus two-high transverse-energy jets at the Fermilab Tevatron. The general characteristics of the heavy top-quark signal events are also discussed so that a comparison can be made between b tagging and imposing stringent kinematical cuts to eliminate backgrounds
