Abstract

We present results from searches for the top quark pp¯ collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The data sample was collected during 1988–89 with the Collider Detector at Fermilab and has an integrated luminosity of 4.1 pb1. Our previous search for eμ final states for tt¯eνb μνb¯ decays has been extended to include the ee and μμ channels. In addition, we have searched in each event with a high-transverse-momentum lepton accompanied by hadron jets for a low-transverse-momentum muon as a tag of a bottom quark in tt¯lνbqq¯b¯ decays. A lower limit on the top-quark mass of 91 GeV/c2 is obtained at the 95% confidence level, assuming standard model decays.
