OSTI ID:5317667
A search for the top quark in {bar p}p collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.8 TeV using the Collider Detector at Fermilab is described. A study of events selected by requiring an energetic electron, missing transverse energy, and two or more jets excludes at 95% confidence level the Standard Model production and decay of t{bar t} pairs if the top quark mass is between 40 to 77 GeV/c{sup 2}. The observed electron + multijet data are consistent with W boson production.
