David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron Outline Total and Differential Cross Sections Angular distributions to determine the amount of Spin Correlation and Polarization Legacy result for the Forward-Backward Asymmetry (AFB) Conclusions Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Top Production at the Tevatron 𝐩 𝐩 collision Asymmetric initial state Dominant process is top quark pair production ~85% quark annihilation Important NLO contributions ~15% gluon fusion ~70,000 𝐭 𝐭 produced/expt ~3,000 reconstructed/expt Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Total Cross Section Measurements Tevatron combination: σ 𝐭 𝐭 = 7.60 ± 0.41pb PRD 89, 072001 (2014) New result from DZero (Lep+Jets & Dilepton) σ 𝐭 𝐭 = 7.73 ± 0.13 (stat.) ± 0.55 (syst.) pb, D0 Note 6453-CONF (2015) Theory Comparison: Fully resummed NNLO QCD calculation σ 𝐭 𝐭 𝑹𝒆𝒔 = 7.35 −𝟎.𝟐𝟕 +𝟎.𝟐𝟑 (scale + pdf) pb Bernreuther, Czakon and Mitov, PRL 109 132001 (2012) aNNNLO σ 𝐭 𝐭 𝑹𝒆𝒔 = 7.37 ± 0.39 (scale+pdf) pb Kidonakis, PRD 90, 014006 (2014) DØ Preliminary Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Differential Production Cross Sections Can look at the cross section as a function of M 𝒕 𝒕 E.g. DZero PRD 90, 092006 (2014) Similarly, look at it as a function of Cos(qt) E.g. CDF PRL 111, 182002 (2013) No evidence for new physics, but the deviations as a function of Cos(qt) are the source of the AFB story Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Polarization in 𝐭 𝐭 Events Tops are almost un-polarized at the Tevatron Small longitudinal polarization from parity-violating weak interactions Transverse polarization is allowed in strong interactions BSM can make these bigger Since the top lifetime (~5x10-25 s) is smaller than the spin-decorrelation time from spin-spin interactions (~3x10-21 s) tops transfer their spin properties to their decay products Can measure polarization through the final angular distributions with respect to a chosen axis Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Top Quark Polarization Cont… After full reconstruction the final angle distributions gives the amount of polarization in three different configurations Data are consistent with zero polarization, and with the predicted SM values First measurement of polarization along the transverse axis at a hadron collider DZero Conference Note 6471 (2015) Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron Spin Correlations While QCD processes yield mostly unpolarized top and anti-top, the spins of the top and anti-top are highly correlated Define the Spin Correlation as: Ooff = 𝟎.𝟖𝟎 −𝟎.𝟎𝟐 +𝟎.𝟎𝟏 predicted in the off-diagonal spin basis (maximal at the Tevatron) 𝒒 𝒒 annihilation has a spin correlation strength of ~0.99 gluon-gluon fusion has a typical strength of ~-0.36 Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Spin Correlation Data Create an event-by-event discriminant for the probability “With Spin Correlations” and for “No Spin Correlations” Fit the data allowing the total cross section and the fraction of “With Spin Correlations” to float Dzero arXiv:1512.08818, Submitted to PLB Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Spin Correlation Conclusions Results: Ooff = 0.89 ±0.16 (stat)±0.15 (syst) Exclude the Uncorrelated scenario P-value is 2.5x10-5 for obtaining a spin correlation larger than the observed value (4.2s) Assuming no BSM contributions, constrain the fraction of events from gluon fusion to fgg=0.08±12(stat) ±0.11(sys) which is in agreement with the NLO prediction of 0.135 Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Last of the AFB Measurements in 𝒕 𝒕 at the Tevatron The forward-backward asymmetry has been a hot topic since a larger-than-expected asymmetry was observed in 2012 Not just the total asymmetry, but the asymmetry as a function of Dy and as a function of M 𝒕 𝒕 were larger as well Original results from CDF in Lep+Jets: AFB = 0.164 ± 0.047 SlopeDY = 0.253±0.062 PRD 87, 092002 (2012) Note large change in SM predictions: AFB (NNLO SM) = 0.095±0.007 Czakon, Fiedler & Mitov, PRL 115, 052001 (2015) SlopeDY (NNLO)= 𝟎.𝟏𝟏𝟒 −𝟎.𝟎𝟏𝟐 +𝟎.𝟎𝟎𝟔 Czakon, Fiedler, Heimes & Mitov, arXiv:1601.05375 Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

New AFB Results from CDF Results with dilepton data: AFB = 0.12±0.11(stat) ±0.07(syst) = 0.12±0.13 Combined with CDF result in lepton+jets AFB = 0.160±0.045 Consistent with SM and DZero AFB (NNLO SM) = 0.095±0.007 within 1.5s AFB = 0.118±0.028 DZero, PRD 92 052007 (2015) CDF arXiv: 1602.09015, Submitted to PRD Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Look at Differential Distributions Measure the slope of AFB vs. |Dy| SlopeDY = 0.14± 0.16 Combine with Lep+Jets results SlopeDY = 0.227± 0.057 2.0s from NNLO SM Not enough statistics to make a meaningful slope vs. M 𝒕 𝒕 measurement Again consistent between CDF and DZero Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Legacy AFB Tevatron Results Final individual results on AFB from Tevatron All the results, including from DZero, are consistent with SM predictions Notice that all of them are above… A combination of CDF+DZero results is in the works Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron Conclusions Top production at the Tevatron has yielded a wealth of important information about the heaviest known fundamental particle While many of the distributions have shown to be similar to SM predictions, the measured precisions have pushed well beyond LO, to NLO and NLO+ Indeed, many of the corrections have been larger than expected, and appear to have been the cause of some of exciting hunts for new physics while we figured it out The legacy results from the Tevatron are nearing completion, bringing this long, wonderful story to a close Moriond QCD, Mar 2016 David Toback, Texas A&M University Top Production at the Tevatron

Selecting Top Quark Events Lepton+Jets Final State Dilepton Final State 1 reconstructed lepton Missing transverse energy ≥4 jets (1 b-tag) SET > 220 GeV Bigger branching fraction, more final state particles to measure, bigger backgrounds 2 reconstructed leptons Missing transverse energy ≥2 jets SET > 200 GeV Higher purity sample, but smaller branching fraction, two leptons have better angles, but two neutrinos cause reconstruction ambiguities UC Seminar, Nov 2015 David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB in Top Quarks at CDF

CDF Dilepton Result with 5.1fb-1 Blessed-but-not-published result: AFB = 0.417 ± 0.148 (stat) ± 0.053 (sys) Also appeared to be bigger for large M 𝒕 𝒕 (N.B.

David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB vs. M 𝒕 𝒕 Can break the data into low values of M 𝒕 𝒕 and large values of M 𝒕 𝒕 Can see by eye that the data doesn’t agree with predictions UC Seminar, Nov 2015 David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB in Top Quarks at CDF

Leptonic AFB Definition SM: AFB = 3.8%, specific ratio for Reconstructed/Leptonic Various BSM Models: -5% < AFB < 15%, ratio can vary significantly UC Seminar, Nov 2015 David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB in Top Quarks at CDF

Leptonic Dh Results (Dileptons only) Measurement techniques works equally well for AFB in Dh AFB =0.076±0.072(st)±0.039(sys) = 0.076± 0.081 Result consistent with SM AFB(SM,NLO) = 0.048 ±0.004 PRL 113, 042001 (2014) UC Seminar, Nov 2015 David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB in Top Quarks at CDF

David Toback, Texas A&M University Definition of AFB In proton-antiproton collisions can measure the relative angle between the outgoing top and the proton direction This is a forward event… If the top was going in the direction of the anti-proton backward event Forward-Backward Asymmetry: AFB = Fraction(Forward) – Fraction(Backward) UC Seminar, Nov 2015 David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB in Top Quarks at CDF

Quick Aside on Variable Choice Dy Transform from Qt to rapidity (y) Rapidity difference is a good proxy for production angle Invariant under longitudinal boosts Asymmetry in Dy is bigger than in Qt, easier to distinguish from 0 Note: y doesn’t have the usual geometric angle many of us are used to. At hadron colliders we usually use pseudo-rapidity which assumes m=0  Here E and p not close to equal because of the top mass June 2012 David Toback, Texas A&M University CIPANP, Afb in Top Quarks at CDF

Asymmetry Predictions First SM predictions of AFB after top discovery (~1995) No AFB at LO, all asymmetry comes from NLO diagrams. Took many years to get decent predictions Interference among diagrams Larger-than-expected EW correction and higher order QCD corrections complicate the calculation Note: Process has been a harbinger of things to come: We have learned during the process that LO MC’s are simply not good enough to measure properties of the top quark UC Seminar, Nov 2015 David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB in Top Quarks at CDF

David Toback, Texas A&M University Lots of Predictions UC Seminar, Nov 2015 David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB in Top Quarks at CDF

David Toback, Texas A&M University Inclusive AFB Results Prediction in plot is old so one can see where the excitement came from Can already tell that the asymmetry is larger than expected for large |Dy| UC Seminar, Nov 2015 David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB in Top Quarks at CDF

David Toback, Texas A&M University AFB vs. 𝑴 𝒕 𝒕 Cont… Quantify with a Slope: (15.5±4.8)x10-4 Observed (3.4±1.2)x10-4 NLO Not a huge anomaly, but certainly we notice it and push forward… Can the numerical values of these slopes be useful to model builders?

Examples of New Physics that could give a Large AFB Two main classes of models S-channel mediator e.g. axigluon T-channel flavor changing mediator e.g. W’ or Z’ Although many of these have strong constraints (and many are now excluded), they provide a good model for searches For a review see: M.

Dzero Spin Correlation 1: Want 3 pages Measurement of spin correlation between top and antitop quarks produced in pp collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV Within the SM, the longitudinal polarizations of the top quark and antiquark are due to parity violating electroweak contributions to the production process.
