摘要： We study the effects of dimension-six operators contributing to the gt(t) over bar vertex in top quark pair production at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We derive both the limits from run 1 data and the potential bounds from future runs (runs 2 and 3). Although the current constraints are not very strong, the future runs are quite effective in probing these operators. We investigate the possibility of disentangling different operators with the tt invariant mass distribution and the top quark polarization asymmetry. We also study the effects of a different set of operators contributing to single top quark production via the Wt(b) over bar coupling. We derive the current and potential future bounds on these anomalous operators and find that the upgraded FermiIab Tevatron collider can improve the existing constraints from R-b for one of the operators.
