Abstract

Differential cross sections in the top quark sector measured at the Fermilab Tevatron collider are presented. CDF used 2.7 fb−1 of data and measured the differential cross section as a function of the invariant mass of the t¯t system. The measurement shows good agreement with the standard model and furthermore is used to derive limits on the ratio κ/MPl for gravitons which decay to top quarks in the Randall-Sundrum model. DØ used 1.0 fb−1 of data to measure the differential cross section as a function of the transverse momentum of the top quark. The measurement shows a good agreement to the higher order perturbative QCD prediction and various predictions based on various Monte Carlo generators.
