W-boson-plus-two-jet production at the Fermilab Tevatron

Abstract
In this paper we present a detailed study of rates and distributions for the production of a W boson plus two jets at the Fermilab 1.8-TeV Collider, assuming that the top quark does not contribute to these events. This process is the principal background to the discovery of a top quark in the 80-110-GeV range with 5 pb1 of data at the Fermilab Tevatron.
