Abstract
We present a direct measurement of the mass difference between top and antitop quarks () in final states using the “matrix element” method. The purity of the sample is enhanced for events by identifying at least one of the jets as originating from a quark. The analyzed data correspond to of collisions at acquired by D0 in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The combination of the and channels yields , which is in agreement with the standard model expectation of no mass difference.
