Single top quark events are selected in the lepton+jets final state by CDF and D0 and in the missing transverse energy plus jets final state by CDF. Multivariate classifiers separate the s-channel and t-channel single-top signals from the large backgrounds. The combination of CDF and D0 results leads to the first observation of the s-channel mode of single top quark production. The t-channel and single top combined cross sections have also been measured.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-05-12T12:49:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quark production", "transverse energy plus jets final", "energy plus jets final state", "fermilab tevatron proton-antiproton collider", "missing transverse energy plus jets" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1295686, "adsabs": "2014arXiv1405.2732S" } } }
