Abstract

We perform a detailed study of the process of single color octet isoscalar ηT\eta_T production at the Tevatron with ηTγ+g\eta_T \to \gamma + g decay signature, including a complete simulation of signal and background processes. We determined a set of optimal cuts from an analysis of the various kinematical distributions for the signal and backgrounds. As a result we show the exclusion and discovery limits on the ηT\eta_T mass which could be established at the Tevatron for some technicolor models.
