Evidence for Single Top Production at the Tevatron

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2019-08-14 v2

Abstract

We present first evidence for the production of single top quarks at the Fermilab Tevatron {\ppbar} collider. Both D0 and CDF experiments have measured the single top production cross section with a 3-standard-deviation significance using 0.9 fb1^{-1} and 2.2 fb1^{-1} of lepton+jets data, respectively. A direct measurement of the CKM matrix element that describes the WtbWtb coupling is also performed for the first time.
