- We present the first measurements of the differential cross section d sigma/dp(T)(gamma) for the production of an isolated photon in association with at least two b-quark jets. The measurements consider photons with rapidities vertical bar y(gamma)vertical bar < 1.0 and transverse momenta 30 < p(T)(gamma) < 200 GeV. The b-quark jets are required to have p(T)(jet) > 15 GeVand vertical bar y(jet)vertical bar < 1.5. The ratio of differential production cross sections for gamma + 2 b-jets to gamma + b-jet as a function of p(T)(gamma) is also presented. The results are based on the proton-antiproton collision data at root s = 1.96 TeV collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The measured cross sections and their ratios are compared to the next- to- leading order perturbative QCD calculations as well as predictions based on the k(T)- factorization approach and those from the sherpa and pythia Monte Carlo event generators.

- We present measurements of the differential cross section d sigma/dp(T)(gamma) for the associated production of a c-quark jet and an isolated photon with rapidity vertical bar y(gamma)vertical bar < 1.0 and transverse momentum 30 < p(T)(gamma) < 300 GeV. The c-quark jets are required to have vertical bar y(jet)vertical bar < 1.5 and p(T)(jet) > 15 GeV. The ratio of differential cross sections for gamma + c to gamma + b production as a function of p(T)(gamma) is also presented. The results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 8.7 fb(-1) recorded with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron p (p) over bar Collider at root s = 1.96 TeV. The obtained results are compared to next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations using various parton distribution functions, to predictions based on the k(T)-factorization approach, and to predictions from the SHERPA and PYTHIA Monte Carlo event generators.

Measurement of the direct CP violating charge asymmetry in B-+/- -> mu(+/-)nu D-mu(0) decays
- 2017

Ingår i: Physical Review D. - 2470-0010 .- 2470-0029. ; 95:3

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present the first measurement of the CP violating charge asymmetry in B-+/- -> mu(+/-)nu D-mu(0) decays using the full Run II integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb(-1) in proton-antiproton collisions collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We measure a difference in the yield of B- and B+ mesons in these decays by fitting the reconstructed invariant mass distributions. This results in an asymmetry of A(mu D0) = [-0.14 +/- 0.20] %, which is consistent with standard model predictions.

- We present a measurement of the direct CP-violating charge asymmetry in D-s(+) -> phi pi(+/-) decays where the phi meson decays to K+ K-, using the full Run II data set with an integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb(-1) of proton- antiproton collisions collected using the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The normalized difference A(CP) in the yield of D-s(+) and D-s(-) mesons in these decays is measured by fitting the difference between their reconstructed invariant mass distributions. This results in an asymmetry of A(CP) = [-0.38 +/- 0.27]%, which is the most precise measurement of this quantity to date. The result is consistent with the standard model prediction of zero CP asymmetry in this decay.

Measurement of the direct CP-violating parameter A(CP) in the decay D+ -> K-pi(+)pi(+)

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We measure the direct CP-violating parameter A(CP) for the decay of the charged charm meson, D+ -> K-pi(+)pi(+)(and charge conjugate), using the full 10.4 fb(-1) sample of p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV collected by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We extract the raw reconstructed charge asymmetry by fitting the invariant mass distributions for the sum and difference of charge-specific samples. This quantity is then corrected for detector-related asymmetries using data-driven methods and for possible physics asymmetries (from B. D processes) using input from Monte Carlo simulation. We measure A(CP) =[-0.16 +/- 0.15(stat) +/- 0.09(syst)] %, which is consistent with zero, as expected from the standard model prediction of CP conservation, and is the most precise measurement of this quantity to date.

Measurement of the Effective Weak Mixing Angle in p(p)over-bar -> Z/gamma* -> e(+)e(-) Events
- 2015

Ingår i: Physical Review Letters. - 0031-9007 .- 1079-7114. ; 115:4

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present a measurement of the fundamental parameter of the standard model, the weak mixing angle sin(2)theta(l)(eff) which determines the relative strength of weak and electromagnetic interactions, in p (p) over bar -> Z/gamma* -> e(+)e(-) events at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV, using data corresponding to 9.7 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity collected by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The effective weak mixing angle is extracted from the forward-backward charge asymmetry as a function of the invariant mass around the Z boson pole. The measured value of sin(2)theta(l)(eff) = 0.23147 +/- 0.00047 is the most precise measurement from light quark interactions to date, with a precision close to the best LEP and SLD results.

- We present a measurement of the effective weak mixing angle parameter sin(2)theta(l)(eff) in p (p) over bar -> Z/gamma* -> mu(+)mu(-) events at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV, collected by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider and corresponding to 8.6 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity. The measured value of sin(2)theta(l)(eff)[mu mu] = 0.23016 +/- 0.00064 is further combined with the result from the D0 measurement in p (p) over bar -> Z/gamma* -> e(+)e(-) events, resulting in sin(2)theta(l)(eff)[comb] = 0.23095 +/- 0.00040. This combined result is the most precise measurement from a single experiment at a hadron collider and is the most precise determination using the coupling of the Z/gamma* to light quarks.

Measurement of the electric charge of the top quark in t(t)over-bar events

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present a measurement of the electric charge of top quarks using t (t) over bar events produced in p (p) over bar collisions at the Tevatron. The analysis is based on fully reconstructed t (t) over bar pairs in lepton + jets final states. Using data corresponding to 5.3 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity, we exclude the hypothesis that the top quark has a charge of Q = -4/3e at a significance greater than 5 standard deviations. We also place an upper limit of 0.46 on the fraction of such quarks that can be present in an admixture with the standard model top quarks (Q = +2/3e) at a 95% confidence level.

Measurement of the electron charge asymmetry in p(p)over-bar -> W + X -> ev plus X decays in p(p)over-bar collisions at root S=1.96 TeV

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present a measurement of the electron charge asymmetry in p (p) over bar -> W + X -> ev + X events at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV, using data corresponding to 9.7 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The asymmetry is measured as a function of the electron pseudorapidity and is presented in five kinematic bins based on the electron transverse energy and the missing transverse energy in the event. The measured asymmetry is compared with next-to-leading-order predictions in perturbative quantum chromodynamics and provides accurate information for the determination of parton distribution functions of the proton. This is the most precise lepton charge asymmetry measurement to date.
