Heavy Flavor Production in CDF II Detector
نویسنده
چکیده
For data collected with the CDF Run II detector, measurements of the charm and bottom production cross-sections are presented. The results are based both on large samples of fully reconstructed hadron decay products of charm and bottom made available by the tracking triggers and on a calorimeter jet triggered sample tagged by the presence of a secondary vertex. The experimental data are compared with theoretical predictions from recent next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD calculations.

Performance of Cdf for B Physics
Hadron colliders can be an abundant source of heavy flavor quarks, but pose a challenge to isolate the physics signals from the high backgrounds. The upgraded CDF II detector, with its precise tracking capabilities and powerful trigger system, is well equipped for this task. The detector is described with an emphasis on actual performance and on techniques to maximize the heavy flavor yield. So...
متن کاملMulti - muon events at CDF
We report a study of multi-muon events produced at the Fermilab Tevatron collider and recorded by the CDF II detector. In a data set acquired with a dedicated dimuon trigger and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2100 pb 1 , we isolate a significant sample of events in which at least one of the identified muons has large impact parameter and is produced outside the beam pipe of radius...
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 کاملHeavy Flavor Production at the Tevatron
Using a subset of the current Run II data, the CDF and DØ have performed several measurements on heavy flavor production. In this paper, we present a new measurement of prompt charm meson production by CDF. We also report the latest CDF II measurements of inclusive J/Ψ production and b-production without requirement of minimum transverse momentum on J/Ψ and b-quark. They are the first measureme...
متن کاملVector 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...
