Top quark property measurements at the Tevatron

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2013-06-25 v1

Abstract

We review recent measurements of the properties of the top quark by the CDF and D0 experiments: the mass and decay width of the top quark, the ratio R=\btwb/\btwqR=\btwb/\btwq, the total production cross section of \ttbar\ pairs, the helicity of the WW boson, anomalous couplings at the WtbWtb vertex, the asymmetry of \ttbar\ttbar production due to the colour charge, and the first study of the top quark polarisation. The measurements are performed using data samples of up to 8.7 \fb\ acquired by the CDF and D0 experiments in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron ppˉp\bar p collider at a centre-of-mass energy of s=1.96\TeV\sqrt s=1.96 \TeV.
