The data set used in the analysis corresponds to an integrated luminosity of approximately 318  pb−1. We select ⁢‾ candidate events with one lepton, at least four jets, and missing transverse energy. Our helicity measurement uses the decay angle *, which is defined as the angle between the momentum of the charged lepton in the boson rest frame and the momentum in the top-quark rest frame. The cos* distribution in the data is determined by full kinematic reconstruction of the ⁢‾ candidates. We find 0 =0.85+0.15−0.22⁢(stat) ±0.06⁢(syst) and + =0.05+0.11−0.05⁢(stat) ±0.03⁢(syst), which is consistent with the standard model prediction. We set an upper limit on the fraction of right-handed bosons of + <0.26 at the 95% confidence level.This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy and National Science Foundation; the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare; the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan; the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada; the National Science Council of the Republic of China; the Swiss National Science Foundation; the A. P.
