Single top-quark production, via weak-interaction processes, is an important test of the standard model, potentially sensitive to new physics. However, it is becoming known that this measurement is much more challenging at the Tevatron than…

A composite model of fermions is proposed to explain the "anomaly" in $Z \rightarrow b {\bar b}$ and, to a lesser extent, in $Z \rightarrow c {\bar c}$. It contains a {\em nonsequential} fourth family whose mass of one member (the charge…
We show that the reported anomalies in $R_b$ and $R_c$ can be interpreted as the effect of a heavy vector boson \zprime\ universally coupled to $u$- and $d$-type quarks separately and nearly decoupled from leptons. This extra vector boson…

The forward-backward asymmetry A_{FB}^t in top quark production at the Tevatron has been seen to be anomalously large both by CDF and D0. Parton-level asymmetries as large as 50%, with a large error bar, have been extracted from the data.…

The scalar partner of the top quark is relatively light in many models of supersymmetry breaking. We study the production of top squarks (stops) at the Tevatron collider and their subsequent decay through baryon-number violating couplings…
