Charge asymmetry of heavy quarks at hadron colliders
Charge asymmetry of heavy quarks at hadron colliders
A sizable difference in the differential production cross section of top quarks and top antiquarks, respectively, is predicted for hadronically produced heavy quarks. It is of order ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{s}$ and arises from the interference between charge odd and even amplitudes, respectively. For the Fermilab Tevatron it amounts up to 15% for …
