Title: Recent D-Zero results on the top quark

Conference ·
OSTI ID:575207

Recent results on top quark physics with the D0 experiment in {anti p}p collisions at {radical}s = 1.8 TeV for an integrated luminosity of 125 pb{sup -1} are reported. The direct measurement of the top quark mass uses single lepton events, giving the result m{sub top} = 173.3 {+-} 5.6(stat) {+-} 6.2(syst) GeV=c{sup 2}. The measurement of the t{anti t} production cross section includes analyses from 8 top decay channels: dilepton (t{anti t} {yields} e{mu}, ee, and {mu}{mu}), electron and neutrino (t{anti t} {yields} e{nu}), and single leptons (t{anti t} {yields} e + jets and t{anti t} {yields} {mu} + jets) with and without b tagging. We measure the t{anti t} production cross section to be 5.5 {+-} 1.8 pb at m{sub top} = 173.3 GeV/c{sup 2}.
