Heavy Top Quark Searches in the Di-Lepton Mode at the Tevatron

Abstract

We present the results of a detailed study of the effects of b-tagging on the heavy top-quark signal and backgrounds for the modes of the di-lepton plus two high transverse energy jets at the Fermilab Tevatron. The general characteristics of the heavy top-quark signal events are also discussed so that a comparison can be made between b-tagging and imposing stringent kinematical cuts to eliminate backgrounds.
