Heavy Flavor Physics at the Tevatron
نویسنده
چکیده
We report on the status of top and b quark physics at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. In particular, we summarize the knowledge obtained by CDF and D 6O on the top quark mass and production cross-section. We also present some new interesting results obtained by CDF with the discovery of the Bc meson and a first low statistic measurement of sin(2 ) at an hadronic collider. c 1998 by Giorgio Apollinari.

Vector Boson + Heavy Flavor Jets Production at the Tevatron
Events containing vector bosons and heavy-flavor jets constitute valuable data samples for a variety of physics analyses at both CDF and D0 experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron pp̄ collider. For example, an event sample containing a W/Z boson and b-jet(s) is a golden sample for the Higgs search at low masses, studies of top quark production and properties, and also searches for the beyond-the-st...
متن کاملMixings, Lifetimes, Spectroscopy and Production of Heavy Flavor at the Tevatron
In the 1980’s and 1990’s, the complementary b physics programs of CLEO, ARGUS, the LEP experiments, SLD, DØ and CDF began to make significant contributions to our understanding of the production and decay of B hadrons. With the successful turnon of the BaBar and Belle experiments in the last few years, many experimental measurements in the b sector have achieved impressive precision. A number o...
متن کاملW/Z + Light Flavor Jets and W/Z + Heavy Flavor Jets at the Tevatron
Collider signatures containing bosons and jets are particularly interesting. Recent theoretical effort has been devoted to determining predictions of W/Z + multiple parton production; the high statistics sample of W/Z + jets events collected at the Tevatron is a valuable testbed for probing the validity of these calculations. The final state containing a Z or W boson and one or more b-jets is a...
متن کاملFlavour physics at the Tevatron
The Tevatron heavy flavor physics program is in full swing. The rapid increase in the size of data samples is allowing significant improvements of previous results, and opens the doors to new possibilities. A further doubling of the current integrated luminosity is expected in the next couple of years. This report summarizes the main current results and future prospects. c Copyright owned by th...
متن کاملTop-quark Cross Section and Properties at the Tevatron
At the Tevatron, the collider experiments CDF and DØ have data sets at their disposal that compromise several hundreds of reconstructed top-antitop-quark pairs and allow for precision measurements of the cross section and production and decay properties. Besides comparing the measurements to standard model predictions, these data sets open a window to physics beyond the standard model. Dedicate...
