We present numerical calculations of the production cross section of a heavy Z' resonance in hadron-hadron collisions with subsequent decay into top-antitop pairs. In particular, we consider the leptophobic topcolor Z' discussed under Model…
The physics of hadron-hadron collisions is very complex involving both perturbative and non perturbative QCD. It is imperative to study p-p collisions in detail to provide a variety of measurements against which the theoretical calculations…
