2. Top Quark Discovery: 1995. . The search for top lasted almost twodecades. Its unexpectedly heavy mass delayed discovery.. CDF Run 1. CDF D0 combined: Mass (top) = 178 ? 4.3 GeV/c2. 3. Why Is Top So Interesting?. Well, top physics is different! Top quark lifetime is short: decays before hadronizingNo spectroscopy like other heavy flavorTop momentum and spin transferred to decay products Probes physics at higher scales than other known fermion30164

3. 3 Why Is Top So Interesting? Very short lifetime, less than the characteristic timescale of nonperturbative QCD. Free from effects of non-perturbative QCD: dont have to worry about form factors, decay constants, exclusive decays, and other things associated with heavy flavor physics. This allows eventual precision test of the top sector
