Abstract:

The results of a search for W boson pair production in pp» collisions at s=1.8 TeV with subsequent decay to dilepton (e,ee, and) channels are presented. One event is observed with an expected background of 0.56 0.13 events with an integrated luminosity of approximately 14 pb-1. Assuming equal strengths for the WWZ and WW gauge boson coupling parameters and, limits on the CP-conserving anomalous coupling constants are -2.6< <2.8 and -2.1< <2.1 at the 95% confidence level. © 1995 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We have searched for new, heavy, charged bosons W′ through the decay W′→eν in pp̄ collisions at s=1.8 TeV. The data used in the search represent 19.7 pb-1 collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. Limits are placed on σB(pp̄→W′→eν) as a function of MW′. Assuming standard couplings of the W′ to fermions, we establish the limit MW′>652 GeV /c2 (95% C.L.). © 1995 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We present new results on the search for the top quark in pp̄ collisions at s=1.8 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 13.5±1.6 pb-1. We have considered tt̄ production in the standard model using electron and muon dilepton decay channels (tt̄→eμ + jets, ee + jets, and μμ + jets) and single-lepton decay channels (tt̄→e + jets and μ + jets) with and without tagging of b quark jets. From all channels we have nine events with an expected background of 3.8±0.9. If we assume that the excess is due to tt̄ production, and assume a top mass of 180 GeV/ c2, we obtain a cross section of 8.2±5.1 pb. © 1995 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We have searched for heavy neutral gauge bosons (Z') in p̄p collisions at s=1.8 TeV. The data were obtained using the CDF detector during the 1992-1993 run corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7±0.7 pb-1. We present a 95% confidence level upper limit on the production cross section times the branching ratio of Z' decaying into dielectrons as a function of Z' mass. Assuming standard model coupling strengths, we exclude a Z' with a mass less than 505 GeV/c2. We also present lower mass limits for Z' bosons from E6 models and the alternative left-right model.
