We present a review of searches for electroweak production of single top quarks at the Fermilab Tevatron proton–antiproton collider at [Formula: see text]. Searches for s-channel and t-channel single top quark production have been carried out using secondary-vertex b-quark tagging and advanced event analysis methods in order to maximize the sensitivity to single top quark production. So far, no evidence for a single top quark signal has been found. However, 95% confidence level upper limits on the production cross-section have been set that improve upon previous limits by factors of two to three and are approaching the cross-section region predicted by the standard model.

In the proton–antiproton collisions at Fermilab, individual top quarks are expected to be produced by an electroweak mechanism referred to as single-top-quark production. In this paper we review the CDF results of the search for single-top-quarks, along with the prospects for the current collider run.
