We review the use of Monte Carlo simulation to model backgrounds to top signal at the Tevatron experiments, CDF and D0, as well as the relevant measurements done by the experiments. We'll concentrate on the modeling of W and Z boson production in association with jets, in particular heavy flavor jets, and also comment on the Tevatron experience using matched Monte Carlo.

Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are indispensable tools for top quark physics, both at the current Tevatron collider and the upcoming Large Hadron Collider. In this paper we review how the Tevatron experiments CDF and D0 utilize MC simulations for top quark analyses. We describe the standard MC generators used to simulate top quark pair and single top quark production, followed by a discussion of methods to extract systematic uncertainties of top physics results related to the MC generator choice. The paper also shows the special MC requirements for some example top properties measurements at the…

In particular, recent results on top quark production, properties and searches using top quarks are discussed.
The top quark, discovered in 1995 by the CDF and D0 collaborations at the Tevatron proton antiproton collider at Fermilab, has undergone intense studies in the last 20 years. Currently, CDF and D0 converge on their measurements of top-antitop quark production cross sections using the full Tevatron data sample. In these proceedings, the latest results on inclusive and differential measurements of top-antitop quark production cross sections at the Tevatron are reported.
The large data samples of thousands of top events collected at the Tevatron experiments CDF and D0 allow for a variety of measurements to analyze the properties of the top quark. Guided by the question "Is the top quark observed at the Tevatron really the top quark of the standard model,'' we present Tevatron analyses studying the top production mechanism including resonant $t\bar{t}$ production, the V-A structure of the $t\to Wb$ decay vertex, the charge of the top quark, and single-top production via flavor-changing neutral currents.
The Tevatron's record luminosities enable a program systematically addressing the physics of the top quark. The CDF and D0 experiments are pioneering measurements across the full breadth of topics. Some of their most recent results are summarized.

Within their uncertainties the results from all these measurements agree with their respective Standard Model expectation.
First observed in 1995, the top quark is the third-generation up-type quark of the standard model of particle physics (SM). The CDF and DØ collaborations have analyzed many \ttbar\ events produced by the Tevatron collider, studying many properties of the top quark. Among these, the mass of the top quark is a fundamental parameter of the SM, since its value constrains the mass of the yet to be observed Higgs boson. The analyzed events were used to measure the mass of the top quark $m_t \simeq 173.2 \gevcc$ with an uncertainty of less than $1 \gevcc$. We report on the latest top mass measurement…
