QCD ttbar production
These are events for the Standard Model ttbar production, for QCD production only. banner
- Parton level (approx. 100k events) LHE events Rootfile. Plot ttbar invariant mass.
- Showered & hadronized events (approx 50k events per set)

QED ttbar production
These are events for the Standard Model ttbar production, for QED production only. banner

Zprime
These are events for pp -> Z/gamma/Zprime -> ttbar banner. The Zprime, of mass 1.5 TeV, couples to quarks with the same strength as the SM Z boson. It does not couple to leptons (only relevant for the decay width). Note that there is interference between the Z and the Zprime.

- Showered & hadronized events (approx 50k events per set)
- Reconstructed Objects (PGS) (approx 50k events per set)
Pseudo-scalar
These are events for the ttbar production, including a s-channel pseudo-scalar exchange banner. The pseudo-scalar, of mass 450 GeV, couples with strength gamma_5*m_f/v to fermions. (m_f is the fermion mass and v is the Higgs field vev). The (top quark) loop induced gluon fusion process is production process for the pseudo-scalar. Note that there is interference between the QCD ttbar background and the pseudo-scalar ttbar production.
