Resumo
We present measurements of production cross sections of single top quarks in pp̄ collisions at √s=1.96TeV in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4fb -1 collected by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We select events with an isolated electron or muon, an imbalance in transverse energy, and two, three, or four jets, with one or two of them containing a bottom hadron. We obtain an inclusive cross section of σ(pp̄→tb+X,tqb+X)=3.43±0.740.73pb and use it to extract the CKM matrix element 0.79<|V tb|≤1 at the 95% C.L. We also measure σ(pp̄→tb+X)=0.68±0.350.38pb and σ(pp̄→tqb+X)=2.86±0.630.69pb when assuming, respectively, tqb and tb production rates as predicted by the standard model. © 2011 American Physical Society.
