Abstract

We present measurements of forward-backward asymmetries of leptons produced in tt ¯ events in proton-antiproton collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We consider final states where the W± bosons from top quark and antiquark decays both decay into ν ( = e, μ) resulting in oppositely charged dilepton inal states with accompanying jets. Using 9.7 fb−1 of integrated luminosity collected with the D0 detector, we find the asymmetries in lepton pseudorapidity compatible with predictions based on the standard model.
