Other models of new physics in the dilepton final state |

compare the expected number of events in 34.0~pb$^{-1}$ |

of such studies are the kinematical cuts described |

in this note, the lepton efficiencies, and the detector |
71 |
|
$P_T = 10$ GeV to 91\% for $P_T > 30$ GeV. The isolation |
72 |

efficiency in top events varies from $\approx 83\%$ (muons) |
73 |

$\approx 95\%$ for $P_T>60$ GeV. |
