We study the effects of dimension-six operators contributing to the $gt\bar t$ vertex in top quark pair production at the Tevatron collider. We derive both the limits from Run 1 data and the potential bounds from future runs (Run 2 and 3).…
A sizable charge asymmetry in top quark pair production has been observed at the Tevatron. The experimental results seem to exceed systematically the Standard Model theory predictions by a significant amount and have triggered a large…
We address known discrepancies between the heavy flavor properties of jets produced at the Tevatron collider and the prediction of conventional-QCD simulations. In this study, we entertain the possibility that these effects are real and due…

In the supersymmetry (SUSY) models, because of the mass difference between the left- and right-top squarks, the supersymmetric QCD interactions can generate parity violating effects in the production of $ t \bar t$ pairs. We show that SUSY…
