Schematic of a decay pattern for the top quark-antiquark pair formed when a high energy proton and antiproton collide. Analysing the emerging particles, physicists can track back to the top quark dynamics. md5:4088eb5f049168a28e5844d9ba47051a	458.1 kB	Preview Download
Below, the CDF experiment (seen here in the 'exploded' maintenance position) at Fermilab's Tevatron has seen 43 examples of top quark production in six trillion proton-antiproton collisions. (Photos Fermilab) md5:c60321da2659d59bec958f1900f64424	640.2 kB	Preview Download
Right, at Fermilab's Tevatron proton-antiproton collider, the DO detector (seen here in its assembly position) has, with its partner Tevatron experiment CDF, finally produced hard evidence for the long awaited sixth 'top' quark. md5:8a0c07ee41df38df7a17ab8fb2401620	212.5 kB	Preview Download
