We present the first experimental discrimination between the 2e/3 and 4e/3 top quark electric charge scenarios, using top quark pairs (ttĀÆ) produced in ppĀÆ collisions at s=1.96 TeV by the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We use 370 pbāˆ’1 of data collected by the D0 experiment and select events with at least ā€¦
