In a nonrelativistic potential quark model framework, we carry out a precise calculation of the mass spectrum of the all-heavy tetraquarks with different flavors, $bb\bar{b}\bar{c}$, $cc\bar{c}\bar{b}$, $bb\bar{c}\bar{c}$, and…
We present a new measurement of the top quark mass in $t\bar t$ events in which both $W$ bosons from top quarks decay into lepton ($e \nu,\mu \nu$). We use events collected by the CDF experiment from $p\bar p$ collisions at \sqrt s=1.8 TeV…
The CMS experiment has measured the electroweak production of top quark in different singly production modes: t-, tW- and s-channel. Recent results on inclusive and differential cross section measurements of t-channel at 13 TeV and of the…

We measure the mass of the top quark in lepton+jets final states using the full sample of $p\bar{p}$ collision data collected by the D0 experiment in Run~II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider at $\sqrt s=1.96~$TeV, corresponding to $9.7~{\rm…
Within the diquark-antidiquark framework, this study investigates the masses of ground-state tetraquarks composed of heavy charm ($c$) and bottom ($b$) quarks and antiquarks, using the Bethe-Salpeter formalism. We establish the…
We report evidence for $s$-channel single-top-quark production in proton-antiproton collisions at center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}= 1.96 \mathrm{TeV}$ using a data set that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $9.4 \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$…
The CDF and D0 collaborations have updated their measurements of the mass of the top quark using proton-antiproton collisions at sqrt{s}=1.96TeV produced at the Tevatron. The uncertainties in each of the of top-antitop decay channels have…

In this work, we systematically calculate the mass spectra of the $S$-wave fully heavy tetraquark states $bb\bar b\bar b$, $cc\bar c\bar c$, and $bb\bar c\bar c$ in two nonrelativistic quark models. A tetraquark state may be an admixture of…
A measurement of the top quark mass is performed using a data sample enriched with single top quark events produced in the $t$ channel. The study is based on proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9…
The question of whether there exist bound states of two heavy quarks $Q=(c,b)$ and antiquarks $\bar Q = (\bar c, \bar b)$, distinct from a pair of quark-antiquark mesons, has been debated for more than forty years. We suggest some means of…
Motivated by the observation of exotic structure around 6900MeV in the $J/\psi$-pair mass spectrum using proton-proton collision data by the LHCb collaboration, we study the spectra of fully-heavy tetraquarks within Bethe-Salpeter equation…
Possibilities are discussed for determining the top quark mass $m_t$ from observations on the decay processes for top-antitop pairs produced in antiproton-proton collisions, assuming that the $t \to bW^+$ decay channel is dominant and much…
We study the dynamical generation of resonances in isospin singlet channels with mixing between two- and four-quark states. To this end we generalise a Bethe-Salpeter approach to four-quark states employed previously \cite{Heupel:2012ua} to…
Twelve years after the discovery of the Top quark, the CDF detector has collected large samples of tt-bar events with integrated luminosities up to 1-1.7 fb^-1, where we are able to probe our knowledge of the Standard Model Top quark. This…
We present a measurement of the top-quark mass in $p\bar p$ collisions at \hbox{$\sqrt{s}=1.96$} TeV which uses events with an inclusive signature of missing transverse energy and jets. % The event selection is sensitive to $t\bar t\to…
Threshold-state elementary particle lifetimes exhibit a scaling in powers of alpha = e^2/hslash*c, and a reciprocal electron-based 1/alpha scaling in particle masses that extends over two powers of 1/alpha. The m(e)/alpha coupling generates…
In a nonrelativistic potential quark model framework, we carry out a calculation of the mass spectrum for the low-lying $1S$ all-heavy pentaquark state by adopting the explicitly correlated Gaussian method. The obtained states are compact…
