B-identification for Level 2: The Silicon Track Trigger at DØ
نویسنده
چکیده
This article describes the Silicon Track Trigger (STT) which has been fully commissioned in 2004 at the DØ experiment. The STT allows to enrich already at the second trigger level the data sample with events containing B-mesons. The STT achieves this by providing within about 50μs tracks with an impact parameter resolution of around 50μm. The article shows preliminary results of the trigger performance and presents a fast b-identification algorithm for the second trigger level.

The DØ Silicon Track Trigger Beam Spot Correction
The initial track parameters derived by the DØ Silicon Track Trigger fitting code assume the Tevatron beams are coincident with the central axis of the silicon microstrip tracker. If this assumption is incorrect, either because the beam is displaced from the axis or because it is tilted with respect to the axis, the tracks resulting from the fits will have apparently large impact parameters, gi...
متن کاملB Mixing and Lifetimes at the Tevatron
The Tevatron collider at Fermilab, operating at √ s = 1.96 TeV, has a huge bb̄ production cross section which is several orders of magnitude larger than the production rate at ee colliders running on the Υ(4S) resonance. In addition, on the Υ(4S) only B and B d are produced, while higher mass b-hadrons such as B s , Bc, b-baryons, B , and p-wave B mesons are currently produced only at the Tevatr...
متن کاملb-Tagging and the Search for Neutral Supersymmetric Higgs Bosons at DØ
A search for neutral supersymmetric Higgs bosons and work relating to the improvement of the b-tagging and trigger capabilities at the DØ detector during Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron collider is presented. The search for evidence of the Higgs sector in the Standard Model (SM) and supersymmetric extensions of the SM are a high priority for the DØ collaboration, and b-tagging and good triggers...
متن کاملCharm and Beauty Production at HERA–B
The HERA–B experiment at DESY has acquired a data-set of approximately 300,000 decays J/ψ→ l+l− during its 2002/2003 data-taking period. These data are used to analyze the production of heavy quarks in proton-nucleus interactions at a center-of-mass energy of 41.6 GeV. In this article, preliminary results of two measurements are discussed, a measurement of nuclear effects in the production of J...
متن کاملThe DØ Level 1 Trigger System
This paper describes the principal components of the level 1 trigger system for the DØ experiment during Run IIb of the Tevatron collider at Fermilab. This trigger system was designed to take advantage of the increased luminosity and shorter bunch spacing provided by the Tevatron in Run II. We place an emphasis on the key concepts that are potentially valuable for future experiments. © 2008 Els...
