Abstract

The field of top-quark physics is reviewed using tt¯ events with an emphasis on experimental techniques. The role of the top quark in the standard model of particle physics is summarized and the basic phenomenology of top-quark production and decay is introduced. Contributions from physics beyond the standard model could affect the top-quark properties or event samples. The many measurements made at the Fermilab Tevatron, which test the standard model predictions or probe for direct evidence of new physics using the top-quark event samples, are reviewed here.
