Abstract
We measure the polarization of bosons from top-quark () decays into final states with a charged lepton and jets, , using the full Run II data set collected by the CDF II detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of . A model-independent method simultaneously determines the fraction of longitudinal () and right-handed () bosons to yield and with a correlation coefficient of . Additional results are presented under various standard model assumptions. No significant discrepancies with the standard model are observed.
