TRANSCRIPT
On the W+4 jets background to the top-‐quark asymmetry at the Tevatron
Yoshitaro Takaesu KNRC/KIAS, Korea
IntroducGon • Large top forward-‐backward asymmetry ( ) has been observed at the Tevatron.
• Contribu>ons of new physics, NNLL QCD, EW correc>ons, NLO of , etc. have been discussed, but we do not know the sa>sfactory answer yet.
• We focus on W+4 jets background for this anomalous in semi-‐leptonic mode.

Neutrino Rapidity
Neutrino rapidity has two possibility in this analysis, and this is fixed from the top mass constraint.
Taking right (generated) or wrong rapidity affects on the AFB significantly.

Neutrino Rapidity: distribution �y
Summary • We inves>gated W+4 jets background on distribu>ons.
• Large is seen in W+4 jets background.
• Neutrino rapidity may affect on the FB asymmetry in W+4jets.
• Although this is a naïve study and far from real experiments, there would be some hints in W+4jets.

• W+4jets can have large AFB at the Parton Shower level.
• However, AFB in W+jets is not observed in 0 b-‐tag sample (background-‐enriched).

Neutrino rapidity may give a hint for this contradiction.
Why?
