Abstract
We searched for possible signatures of top-quark production in 508 hadronic annihilation events collected at GeV by the TOPAZ detector at the KEK collider TRISTAN. The observed hadronic cross section and shape of hadronic events are consistent with the standard-model predictions without top quarks. A lower limit (95% confidence level) on the mass of the lightest top meson is set at 25.8 GeV.
