Results are presented from a search for a fourth generation of quarks produced singly or in pairs in a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5 inverse femtobarns recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2011. A novel…
We present the results from searches for fourth generation fermions performed using data samples collected by the CDF II and D0 Detectors at the Fermilab Tevatron ppbar collider. Many of these results represent the most stringent 95% C.L.…

Most limits on the fourth generation heavy top quark (the t') are based on the assumed dominance of t' -> Wb, which is expected to be case in the minimal fourth generation framework with a single Higgs (the so called SM4). Here we show,…
