Evidence for an anomalous like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry
- 2010

-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We measure the charge asymmetry A of like-sign dimuon events in 6.1 fb(-1) of p (p) over bar collisions recorded with the D0 detector at a center-of-mass energy root s = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. From A, we extract the like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in semileptonic b-hadron decays: A(sl)(b) = -0.00957 +/- 0.00251 (stat) +/- 0.00146 (syst). This result differs by 3.2 standard deviations from the standard model prediction A(sl)(b)(SM) = (-2.3(0.6)(+0.5)) x 10(-4) and provides first evidence of anomalous CP violation in the mixing of neutral B mesons.

- We measure the charge asymmetry A =(N++ -N--)/(N++ + N--) of like-sign dimuon events in 6.1 fb(-1) of p (p) over bar collisions recorded with the D0 detector at a center-of-mass energy root s = 1: 96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. From A we extract the like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in semileptonic b-hadron decays: A(sl)(b) = -0.009 57 +/- 0.00251(stat) +/- 0.001 46(sys). It differs by 3.2 standard deviations from the standard model prediction A(sl)(b)(SM) = (-2.3(-0.6)(+0.5)) x 10(-4), and provides first evidence of anomalous CP violation in the mixing of neutral B mesons.

Evidence for Simultaneous Production of J/psi and Upsilon Mesons
- 2016
-
In: Physical Review Letters. - 0031-9007 .- 1079-7114. ; 116:8
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report evidence for the simultaneous production of J/psi and Upsilon mesons in 8.1 fb(-1) of data collected at root s = 1.96 TeV by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab p (p) over bar Tevatron Collider. Events with these characteristics are expected to be produced predominantly by gluon-gluon interactions. In this analysis, we extract the effective cross section characterizing the initial parton spatial distribution, sigma(eff) = 2.2 +/- 0.7(stat) +/- 0.9(syst) mb.

Evidence for Z(c)(+/-)(3900) in semi-inclusive decays of b-flavored hadrons
- 2018
-
In: Physical Review D. - : AMER PHYSICAL SOC. - 2470-0010 .- 2470-0029. ; 98:5
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present evidence for the exotic charged charmoniumlike state Z(c)(+/-)(3900) decaying to J/psi pi(+/-) in semi-inclusive weak decays of b-flavored hadrons. The signal is correlated with a parent J/psi pi(+)pi(-) system in the invariant-mass range 4.2-4.7 GeV that would include the exotic structure Y(4260). The study is based on 10.4 fb(-1) of p (p) over bar collision data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider.

High mass exclusive diffractive dijet production in p(p)over-bar collisions at root s=1.96 TeV
- 2011

In: Physics Letters B. - : Elsevier BV. - 0370-2693 .- 1873-2445. ; 705:3, s. 193-199

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present evidence for diffractive exclusive dijet production with an invariant dijet mass greater than 100 GeV in data collected with the DO experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. A discriminant based on calorimeter information is used to measure a significant number of events with little energy (typically less than 10 GeV) outside the dijet system, consistent with the diffractive exclusive dijet production topology. The probability for these events to be explained by other dijet production processes is 2 x 10(-6), corresponding to a 4.7 standard deviation significance.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The ability to identify jets which originated from b quarks is an important tool of the physics program of the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron p (p) over bar collider. This paper describes a new algorithm designed to select jets originating from b quarks while suppressing the contamination caused by jets from other quark flavors and gluons. Additionally, a new technique, the SystemN method, for determining the misidentification rate directly from data is presented. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Inclusive Production of the X(4140) State in p(p)over-bar Collisions at D0
- 2015

In: Physical Review Letters. - 0031-9007 .- 1079-7114. ; 115:23

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present a study of the inclusive production of the X(4140) state with the decay to the J/psi phi final state in hadronic collisions. Based on 10.4 fb(-1) of p (p) over bar collision data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider, we report the first evidence for the prompt production of an X(4140) state and find the fraction of X(4140) events originating from b hadrons to be f(b) = 0.39 +/- 0.07 (stat) +/- 0.10 (syst). The ratio of the nonprompt X(4140) production rate to the B-s(0) yield in the same channel is R = 0.19 +/- 0.05 (stat) +/- 0.07 (syst). The values of the mass M = 4152.5 +/- 1.7 (stat)(-5.4)(+/- 6.2)(syst) MeV and width Gamma = 16.3 +/- 5.6 (stat) +/- 11.4 (syst) MeV are consistent with previous measurements.

- The calibration of jet energy measured in the DO detector is presented, based on p (p) over bar collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider, jet energies are measured using a sampling calorimeter composed of uranium and liquid argon as the passive and active media, respectively. This paper describes the energy calibration of jets performed with gamma+jet, Z+jet and dilet events, with jet transverse momentum p(T) > 6 GeV and pseudorapidity range vertical bar eta vertical bar < 3.6, The corrections are measured separately for data and simulation, achieving a precision of 1.4-1.8% for jets in the central part of the calorimeter ancl up to 3.5% for the jets with pseudorapidity vertical bar eta vertical bar = 3.0. Specific corrections are extracted to enhance the description of jet energy in simulation and in particular of the effects due to the flavor of the parton originating the jet, correcting biases up to 3-4% in jets with low PT originating from gluons and up to 6-8% in jets from b quarks.

Limits on anomalous trilinear gauge boson couplings from WW, WZ and Wγ production in pp- collisions at √s=1.96TeV
- 2012

In: Physics Letters B. - : Elsevier BV. - 0370-2693 .- 1873-2445. ; 718:2, s. 451-459

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present searches for the anomalous γWW and ZWW trilinear gauge boson couplings from WW and WZ production using lepton plus dijet final states and a combination with results from Wγ, WW, and WZ production with leptonic final states. The analyzed data correspond to up to 8.6fb -1 of integrated luminosity collected by the D0 detector in pp- collisions at s=1.96TeV. We set the most stringent limits at a hadron collider to date assuming two different relations between the anomalous coupling parameters δκ γ, λ, and δg1Z for a cutoff energy scale Λ=2TeV. The combined 68% C.L. limits are -0.057<δκ γ<0.154, -0.015<λ<0.028, and -0.008<δg1Z<0.054 for the LEP parameterization, and -0.007<δκ<0.081 and -0.017<λ<0.028 for the equal couplings parameterization. We also present the most stringent limits of the W boson magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moments.

Measurement of differential tt production cross sections in pp collisions
- 2014
-
In: Physical Review D. - 1550-7998 .- 1550-2368. ; 90:9, s. 092006-
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The production of top quark-antiquark pair events in pp collisions at root s= 1.96 TeV is studied as a function of the transverse momentum and absolute value of the rapidity of the top quarks as well as of the invariant mass of the tt pair. We select events containing an isolated lepton, a large imbalance in transverse momentum, and four or more jets with at least one jet identified as originating from a b quark. The data sample corresponds to 9.7 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity recorded with the D0 detector during Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. Observed differential cross sections are consistent with standard model predictions.
