Abstract

Detailed calculations of the accelerator related background in the CDF forward muon spectrometer have been performed with the MARS13 code and a newly developed C++ code for particle tracking in accelerator lattices. Calculated space distributions of background hits are in a good agreement with data taken in Run I. Several shielding configurations in the CDF hall and Tevatron tunnel have been studied. The optimal one provides a 30-fold shielding efficiency compatible with CDF Run II requirements.

Forward Tracking with the silicon vertex detector at the CDF experiment in RUN II. Spurrekonstruktion in Vorwärtsrichtung mit dem Silizium-Vertexdetektor des CDF-Experiments in RUN II (in German)

Thesis/Dissertation Scheidle, Thorsten

The Standard Model of particle physics describes the fundamental particles of matter and their interactions. In order to test the Standard Model, determine free parameters and search for new particles beyond the Standard Model, large accelerator complexes produce particle collisions which are recorded by large detectors. Until the start of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, the Tevatron accelerator at Fermilab provides particle collisions with the highest center-of-mass energy of √s = 1.96 TeV. The two multipurpose detector systems CDF and DØ record the collisions. A multipurpose detector system is built of several specialized sub-detectors to measure different particle properties.more »« less

Status of CDF Run II Upgrade

Conference Cranshaw, Jack

For the past several years, the CDF collaboration has been upgrading its detector to accommodate the higher luminosity and beam energy expected during Run II (2001-2006) at the Tevatron p{bar p} collider. Accelerator improvements include increasing the instantaneous luminosity by an order of magnitude with respect to Run I to 2 x 10{sup 32} cm{sup {minus}2} s{sup {minus}1} and increasing the center of mass energy from 1.8 TeV to 2.0 TeV. The detector upgrades include replacing the entire tracking volume, extending the muon coverage, adding a time of flight system, and improving the selection capabilities of the trigger.

Measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry of top-quark and antiquark pairs using the full CDF Run II data set

Journal Article Aaltonen, Timo - Physical Review D

We measure the forward-backward asymmetry of the production of top-quark and antiquark pairs in proton-antiproton collisions at center-of-mass energy s=1.96 TeV using the full data set collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) in Tevatron Run II corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.1 fb-1. The asymmetry is characterized by the rapidity difference between top quarks and antiquarks (Δy) and measured in the final state with two charged leptons (electrons and muons). The inclusive asymmetry, corrected to the entire phase space at parton level, is measured to be AFBtt=0.12±0.13, consistent with the expectations from the standard model (SM) andmore »« less

Beauty and charm physics at CDF, First results and perspectives

Conference Cecco, S

Among CDF physics opportunities, heavy flavour physics is one of the most prominent and promising for the Tevatron run2. Still in the run1 CDF demonstrated that high precision CP violation measurement in the beauty sector as well as B mixing are feasible at hadronic collider, we think here especially to the first measure of sin2{beta} with B{sup 0} {yields} J/PsiK{sub s}{sup 0} decays and that of {Delta}m{sub Bd}. Tevatron accelerator and CDF detector upgrades are extensively discussed in other papers to which we refer to. Here we just recall the new features relevant to heavy flavour physics: New muon detectormore »« less

Performance of CDF calorimeter simulation for Tevatron Run II

Conference Currat, C

The upgraded CDF II detector has collected first data during the initial operation of the Tevatron accelerator in Run II. The simulation of the CDF electromagnetic and hadronic central and upgraded plug (forward) calorimeter is based on the Gflash calorimeter parameterization package used within the GEANT based detector simulation of the Run II CDF detector. We present the results of tuning the central and plug calorimeter response to test beam data.
