Description

We present the measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry in top antitop quark pair production in proton antiproton collisions in the lepton plus jets and dilepton final state. Measurements use the full data set collected by D0 in Run II corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.7/fb. We present the most recent measurement of the lepton-based asymmetries both in lepton+jets and dilepton final states and their combination. We also present the top-quark based asymmetry as an inclusive measurement and differentially in m(ttbar). These results are corrected for efficiency, acceptance and resolution effects to parton level. Measurements are compared to theory predictions.
