The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v1. Results and the main claim are underlined; show every role.

The heaviest known elementary particle today, the top quark, has been discovered in 1995 by the CDF and D0 collaborations at the Tevatron proton antiproton collider at Fermilab. Recently, the CDF and D0 collaborations have studied the forward-backward asymmetry in ttbar events, resulting in measured values larger than the standard model prediction. With the start of the LHC at CERN in 2010, a new top quark factory has opened and asymmetry measurements in ttbar have also been performed in a proton proton environment with higher collision energy. No deviations from the standard model have been noticed so far in the measurements of ATLAS and CMS. This article discusses recent results of asymmetry measurements in ttbar events of the ATLAS, CDF, CMS and D0 collaborations.

Original abstract

The heaviest known elementary particle today, the top quark, has been discovered in 1995 by the CDF and D0 collaborations at the Tevatron proton antiproton collider at Fermilab. Recently, the CDF and D0 collaborations have studied the forward-backward asymmetry in ttbar events, resulting in measured values larger than the standard model prediction. With the start of the LHC at CERN in 2010, a new top quark factory has opened and asymmetry measurements in ttbar have also been performed in a proton proton environment with higher collision energy. No deviations from the standard model have been noticed so far in the measurements of ATLAS and CMS.

What this paper does with the arXiv papers it cites

Each citing sentence is taken from the citing paper's LaTeX source and typed by Pith's classifier. A label appears at probability 0.8 or more (0.95 for support), a contest at 0.7 or more; the quoted words are the citing authors'. How each label was checked · JSON

Uses data or values from 3 papers

The results extracted by D0 are based on 5.4 fb$^-1$ of Run II data [ref] , yielding $A_fb^l= 5.8 ±5.3$% with a prediction of $4.7±0.1$%, $A^ll_fb=5.3 ±8.4$% comparable to a prediction of $6.2±0.2$%, and $A^CP_fb = -1.8 ±5.3$% with a prediction of $-0.3 ±0.1$%.

Measurement of Leptonic Asymmetries and Top Quark Polarization in ttbar Production · Asymmetry Measurements · 0.94
Due to its high mass of $m_t = 173.18 ±0.94$ GeV [ref] and its short lifetime, the top quark is believed to play a special role in electroweak symmetry breaking, serves as a window to physics beyond the standard model (SM), and provides a unique environment to study a bare quark.

Combination of the top-quark mass measurements from the Tevatron collider · Introduction · 0.94
A recent calculation including electroweak and mixed QCD and electroweak corrections as well as using a NLO PDF in the denominator of the expansion in $alpha$ and $alpha_S$ yields an asymmetry of $A_fb^tt̅= 8.8±0.6$% [ref] .
