3 Two Hulking Detectors CDF D0

4 The World in 1985 3 Generations of quarks and leptons t e e -  udud cscs b   Discovered at FNAL in 1977 Electromagnetic, Weak & Strong Forces Electroweak & Strong Forces W, Z get their masses via the Higgs mechanism

5 3 Generations Are Needed Particles & Antiparticles with different decay rates = CP violation 3x3 unitary matrix can be expressed with 4 parameters – 3 mixing angles + 1 complex phase Complex phase  CP Violation In the SM all CP effects are related by this single phase. But for 30 years, CP was only observed in (1964 – Fitch & Cronin 1980 Nobel)

6 1983 W ±, Z 0 discovered at CERN collider –M W ~81±5 GeV/c 2 –M Z =95.2±2.5 GeV/c 2 (UA1) – =91.9±1.9 GeV/c 2 (UA2)

11 First Collisions: October 13, 1985

13 Data Taking Protons & antiprotons collide at ~2.5 MHz 0.25Hz of W/Z production ~100 Hz of high E T jets ~100 Hz of b-quark production.0002 Hz of top quark production ?? Hz of new physics 1% “Acceptance” ~1% Analysis Mode ~10 -2 Hz for analysis 10% “Acceptance” ~40% Analysis Mode ~10 -5 Hz for analysis ?? “Acceptance” ?? Analysis Mode 20% “Acceptance” ~20% Analysis Mode ~10 -2 Hz for analysis Prescale/20 10% “Acceptance” 85% to analysis ~0.4 Hz for analysis

14 First Precise Measurements of the Z (1989) CDF Mark II at SLC Now: Phys. Rev. Lett. 63 (1989) MZMZ MWMW

15 W Mass 1990: CDF used 1130 W→e & 592 W→  to measure: 1995: 5718 W→e ; 3268 W→  MZMZ MWMW

16 W Mass M W =80.433±0.079 GeV/c 2 14740 events M W =80.482±0.091 GeV/c 2 11089 events 2006: M W =XX.XXX±0.049 GeV/c2 (.06%!!!) Based on >116,000 W decays! MZMZ MWMW

17 MZMZ MWMW These two processes interfere to produce a “forward- backward” asymmetry that depends on sin 2  W

18 1989: B 0 Mixing b W–W– d bd W+W+ u,c,t B0B0 B0B0 V td V* tb =1 First observation in at UA1 meant the top quark was heavy B hadron M TOP B Mixing

19 Indirect Measurements of M top MZMZ M TOP

20 The Top Quark In 1990 CDF published a limit –M top > 77 GeV/c 2 This put UA1/UA2 out of business in the search for top By 1992 the top non-discovery meant –M top >91 GeV/c 2 –I.e. M top >M W +M b

21 What We Found: 1994 10 events in the lepton+jets channel (5 e, 5  ) 2 events in the di- lepton channel (both e  ) About 6 events expected from backgrounds Not your typical event

22 The First Direct Measurement of M top MZMZ M TOP Discovery Top Mass GeV/c 2

23 By 1995 CDF: –37 events in lepton+jets –6 events in dileptons D0 –14 events in lepton+jets –3 events in dileptons Back-to-back papers in Phys. Rev. Lett. 74 (1995) MZMZ M TOP

24 2006 M top = 171.4 ± 2.1 GeV/c 2 MZMZ M TOP MWMW MHMH

31 CP Violation in B mesons Unitarity of CKM matrix  (among other things) A triangle in the complex plane (provided the CKM phase is non-zero) CP CKM B Mixing

32 First Hint  ≠0 (1999) Now, from b factories: Unfortunately, the SM is quite happy with this. CP CKM B Mixing

33 B S Oscillations b W–W– s bs W+W+ u,c,t BsBs BsBs V ts V* tb =1 Mixing Frequency is  |V ts | 2 CKM B S Mixing

35 CKM 2006 Still assumes 3 generation unitarity. B S Mixing measurement CKM B S Mixing

41 Interesting Events Happen 1995: Missing Energy (GeV) That’s interesting… PBSM??

42 The EggMet Event Two high-energy electrons Two high-energy photons Large missing energy Nothing more through 2006… PBSM??

43 B S Mixing Everything is Connected “When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world” – John Muir Z bosonTop Quark MWMW MHMH B Mixing CP CKM PBSM??

44 You’re going to be told lots of things. You get told things every day that don’t happen. It doesn’t seem to bother people, they don’t – It’s printed in the press. The world thinks all these things happen. They never happened. Everyone’s so eager to get the story Before in fact the story’s there That the world is constantly being fed Things that haven’t happened. All I can tell you is, It hasn’t happened. It’s going to happen.
