Book excerpt: The top search in the dilepton and lepton plus jets channels with the Collider Detector at Fermilab is presented. The analysis uses a 67 pb−1 sample of p{bar p} collisions at 1.8 TeV. A 4.8[sigma] excess of candidate events establishes the existence of the top quark. The t{bar t} production cross section is measured to be [sigma]{sub t{bar t}} = 7.6{sub -2.0}{sup +2.4} pb with branching Br(t → Wb) = 0.87{sub -0.30}{sup +0.13}(stat) {sub -0.11}{sup +0.13}(syst). The measured mass is M{sub top} = 176±8±10 GeV.
