Abstract
If production at the Fermilab Tevatron exceeds the electroweak rate, the most economical explanation will be QCD production of a heavy top quark pp¯→tt¯X with t→, t¯→b¯ decays. The cleanest signatures are found in events containing two isolated high- charged leptons (e, μ, or τ) with missing . We suggest ways to confirm such signatures and to extract the top-quark mass.
