OSTI ID:119985
CDF has established the existence of the top quark. Results from p{anti p} collisions at {radical}s = 1.8 TeV are presented. In the dilepton final state the authors found seven events with a background of 1.3 {+-} 0.3. In the e, {mu} + {nu} + jets channel with a b identified via a secondary vertex detector (SVX), they found twenty one events with a background of 5.5 {+-} 1.8. They measure the top quark mass to be 176 {+-} 8 (stat) {+-} 10 (syst) GeV/c{sup 2}, and the t{anti t} production cross section to be 7.6{sub {minus}2.0}{sup +2.4} pb. The integrated luminosity for the results presented in this talk is 67 pb{sup {minus}1}. The CDF detector needs to be upgraded for the next run. The integrated luminosity for the next run is expected to be more than 1,000 pb{sup {minus}1}.
