Title: Exploiting Third Generation Quarks for New Physics Discoveries at the Energy Frontier

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1096440· OSTI ID:1096440

The K-State group's effort is top quark physics and searches for beyond-standard-model physics in t{anti }t final states. The KSU team performed the most precise measurement of the t {anti t} cross section in the lepton + jets channel, and for the first time excluded the fourth generation of the standard model in the perturbative regime.
