We find that the cross section of $\\gamma\\gamma\\to t\\bar{t}\\Pi_{t}^{0}$ is much larger than that of $\\gamma\\gamma\\to b\\bar{b}\\Pi_{t}^{0}$. On the other hand, the cross section can be obviously enhanced with the increasing of c.m.energy. With $\\sqrt{s}=1600$ GeV, the cross section of $t\\bar{t}\\Pi_t^0$ production can reach the level of a few fb. The results show that $\\gamma\\gamma\\to t\\bar{t}\\Pi^0_t \\to t\\bar{t}(t\\bar{c})$ is the most ideal channel to detect neutral toppion due to the clean SM background. With such sufficient signals and clean background, neutral toppion could be detected at TESLA with high c.m.energy.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-09-28T14:30:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.60.Nz", "14.80.Mz", "12.15.Lk", "14.65.Ha" ], "keywords": [ "heavy quarks", "associated production", "cross section", "collisions", "neutral toppion production process" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
