We present measurements of the [Formula: see text] production cross section in b-tagged lepton + jets events from [Formula: see text] collisions at 1.96 TeV using the CDF detector at Fermilab. B-jets are tagged with either a secondary vertex algorithm, or a soft lepton tagger that identifies muons from B hadron semileptonic decays. With Tevatron Run II data, we estimate the [Formula: see text] signal fraction in two different ways: by estimating the various background contributions, and by fitting directly the leading jet transverse energy spectrum for the signal and background contributions. A subset of the sample, with two secondary vertex tagged jets, yields a production cross section consistent with the inclusive measurements. Results are consistent with a Standard Model [Formula: see text] signal and current measurements of the top quark mass.

Pair Production Cross Section

A measurement of the [Formula: see text] production cross-section at [Formula: see text] with the DØ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron, based on the application of a multivariate topological method is presented. The integrated luminosity corresponds to 143.9 pb-1 in the μ+jets and 141.2 pb-1 in the e+jets channel. The preliminary cross-section is measured to be [Formula: see text].

Top Mass

In this review I summarize the results obtained by CDF on top physics. After the discovery of the top quark, the efforts were concentrated on obtaining precision measurements of the observables. A description of the algorithms developed and used to isolate top in various samples is given, together with the discussion of background and selection strategies followed. The measurements of top mass and [Formula: see text] production cross section are discussed in detail and studies related to top decays and kinematics of [Formula: see text] events are presented.
