Book excerpt: The Tevatron experiments, CDF and D0, have produced a wealth of new B-physics results since the start of Run II in 2001. We've observed new B-hadrons, seen new effects, and increased many-fold the precision with which we know the properties of b-quark systems. In these proceedings, we will discuss two of the most fruitful areas in the Tevatron B-physics program: lifetimes and mixing. We'll examine the experimental issues driving these analyses, present a summary of the latest results, and discuss prospects for the future.

Book excerpt: During the run period from May 1992 to begin of June 1993 the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) has recorded ≈ 21.4 pb−1 of p{anti p} collider data at √s = 1.8 TeV. For this run the detector had been upgraded which significantly enhanced its b-physics capabilities. The upgrades include a high precision Silicon VerteX detector (SVX) which enables CDF to reconstruct the decay vertex and decay length of b-hadrons. In this article the author reports on several measurements of the lifetime of b-flavored hadrons. The determination of the average b-lifetime using inclusive J/??s, the measurement of the B{sup {+-}} and B° lifetimes by reconstructing exclusive final states including a J/? or?(2S) and a measurement of the B{sub s}° meson lifetime exploiting the decay: B{sub s} → l?D{sub s} → l???+ → l?K+K−?+.

Book excerpt: The authors present recent results on b-hadron lifetimes and mixing obtained from the analysis of the data collected at the Tevatron Collider by the CDF and D0 Collaborations in the period 2002-2004. Many lifetime measurements have been updated since the Summer 2004 conferences, sometimes improving significantly the accuracy. Likewise the measurement of the B{sub d} oscillation frequency has been updated. New limits on the B{sub s} oscillation frequency have been determined using for the first time Run II data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two collider experiments at the Tevatron, CDF and D0, have made a lot of progress in B{sub s} lifetime difference measurements. Here, they have included 3 different channels of measurements, namely, B{sub s} {yields} J/{psi} + {phi}, B{sub s} {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -} and B{sub s} {yields} D{sub s}{sup (*)+}D{sub s}{sup (*)-}. Combining all the available measurements, they have obtained {Delta}{Lambda}{sub s} = 0.097{sub -0.042}{sup +0.041} ps{sup -1} and {bar {tau}} = 1/{Lambda}{sub s} = 1.461 {+-} 0.030 ps. {Delta}{Lambda}{sub s} is now 2.3 {sigma} away from zero.

Book excerpt: Measurements of the average b-hadron lifetime using inclusive B → J/[psi]X events, the individual B{sub u} and B{sub d} lifetimes and their ratio using exclusive B → [psi]K events, and the B{sub s} lifetime using semileptonic B{sub s} lifetime using semileptonic B{sub s} → l[nu]D3X events are presented. The results were obtained from a 21.3 pb−1 sample of √s = 1.8 TeV {bar p}p collisions collected in 1992--93 at the Fermilab Tevatron collider and required the precise position measurements of the recently installed CDF silicon vertex detector.

Download or read book Measurement of the 0b Lifetime in 0b u2192 c Decays at the Collider Detector at Fermilab written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lifetime of the ?0b baryon (consisting of u, d and b quarks) is the theoretically most interesting of all b-hadron lifetimes. The lifetime of ?0b probes our understanding of how baryons with one heavy quark are put together and how they decay. Experimentally however, measurements of the ?0b lifetime have either lacked precision or have been inconsistent with one another. This thesis describes the measurement of ?0b lifetime in proton-antiproton collisions with center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV at Fermilab's Tevatron collider. Using 1070 ± 60pb-1 of data collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF), a clean sample of about 3,000 fully-reconstructed ?0b →?c+?- decays (with ?+c subsequently decaying via ?+c → p+ K- ?+) is used to extract the lifetime of the ?0b baryon, which is found to be c?(?0b) = 422.8 ± 13.8(stat) ± 8.8(syst)?m. This is the most precise measurement of its kind, and is even better than the current world average. It also settles the recent controversy regarding the apparent inconsistency between CDF's other measurement and the rest of the world.

Book excerpt: Starting in September 1999, a series of workshops was carried out to study the prospects for B physics at the Tevatron. There were four working groups covering CP Violation, Rare and Semileptonic Decays, Mixing and Lifetimes, as well as Production, Fragmentation and Spectroscopy. Upon the completion of a comprehensive written report summarizing the results of this workshop, we will review the highlights of B Physics at the Tevatron in Run II and beyond. On our way to this goal, we will pass by questions such as 'Why are there so many B factories these days?' or 'Why do we also want to do B Physics at Fermilab'.

Download or read book B lifetime Measurements at CDF written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The average b-hadron lifetime has been measured using a high statistics sample of B → J/?X decays recorded with the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The decay vertices of J/? →??− candidates have been reconstructed using information from a silicon vertex-detector. The measured B lifetime, which is the average over all b-hadrons produced in p{bar p} collisions at √s = 1.8 TeV, weighted by their branching ratios into J/? is:?B = 1.46 ± 0.06(stat.) ± 0.06(sys.)ps (preliminary); In addition we used the fully reconstructed final states B{sup ±} → J/?K{sup ±} and B° → J/?K°* to measure the exclusive lifetime of charged and neutral B-mesons. We measure:?{sub B}{sup ±} = 1.59 ± 0.27(stat.) ± 0.17(sys.) ps (preliminary);?{sub B}° = 1. 34 ± 0.31 (stat.) {plus_minus} 0.17 (sys.) ps (preliminary); From this we obtain the following result for the lifetime ratio:?{sub B}{sup {plus_minus}}/? {sub B}° = 1.19 {plus_minus} 0.35(stat.) {plus_minus} 0.12(sys.) (preliminary); This represents the first measurements of the b-lifetime at a hadron collider.
Download or read book Heavy Flavours written by A J Buras and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1992-11-26 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a collection of review articles on the most outstanding topics in heavy flavour physics. All the authors have made significant contributions to this field. The book reviews in detail the theoretical structure of heavy flavour physics within the Standard Model and its confrontation with existing experimental data.The physics of the top quark and of the Higgs play an important role in this volume. Beginning with radiative electroweak corrections and their impressive tests at LEP and hadron colliders, the book summarizes the present status of quark mixing, CP violation and rare decays. The dynamics of exclusive D- and B-meson decays, the τ-lepton physics and the newly discovered heavy quark symmetries are discussed in detail. The impact of strong interactions on weak decays is clearly visible in many articles. The physics of heavy flavours at LEP, HERA and hadron colliders constitutes an important part of the book. Another significant topic is the possible role of heavy flavours in the spontaneous symmetry breaking of gauge symmetries. Finally the most recent advances in lattice calculations of the properties of heavy flavours and the lattice studies of the dynamics of heavy flavours are presented.

Book excerpt: This updated edition of Collider Physics surveys the major developments in theoretical and experimental particle physics and uses numerous illustrations to show how the Standard Model explains the experimental results. Collider Physics offers an introduction to the fundamental particles and their interactions at the level of a lecture course for graduate students, with emphasis on the aspects most closely related to colliders--past, present, and future. It includes expectations for new physics associated with Higgs bosons and supersymmetry. This resourceful book shows how to make practical calculations and serves a dual purpose as a textbook and a handbook for collider physics phenomenology.
