Measurement of the Properties of the top Quark at D
Abstract
Different measurements of the properties of the top quark using up to 5.4 fb-1 collected with the D detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider are presented. The top mass is obtained from a study of dilepton and lepton+jets final states, while the width is obtained from a combination of the measurements of the single top production via t-channel exchange and the determination of the t → Wb branching ratio. Furthermore the measurement of the helicity of the W boson from top quark decays, a measurement of tt spin correlations and a measurement of the jet pull (color flow) in tt events are presented.
