Phenomenology of a light gluon resonance in top-physics at Tevatron and LHC

We present a phenomenological analysis of the recent Tevatron results on the tt̄ forward-backward asymmetry and invariant-mass spectrum assuming a new contribution from an s-channel gluon resonance with a mass in the range from 700 to 2500GeV. In contrast to most of the previous works, this analysis...
