Abstract:

The SVX vertex detector has been very successful in heavy flavor physics at CDF, playing a significant role in both top and bottom analyses. SVX′, a radiation hard version of SVX, is presently taking data. In 1998 the Main Injector upgrade to the accelerator complex at Fermilab will provide a significant increase in luminosity, and will require a new vertex detector, SVX II. The specifications and design considerations for this detector are discussed. © 1995.

Abstract:

We establish the existence of the top quark using a 67 pb-1 data sample of p̄p collisions at s=1.8 TeV collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). Employing techniques similar to those we previously published, we observe a signal consistent with tt̄ decay to WWbb̄, but inconsistent with the background prediction by 4.8σ. Additional evidence for the top quark is provided by a peak in the reconstructed mass distribution. We measure the top quark mass to be 176±8(stat)±10(syst) GeV/c2, and the tt̄ production cross section to be 6.8-2.4+3.6 pb. © 1995 The American Physical Society.
