3 We present the rst measurement of the electron angular distribution parameter 2 in W ! ee events produced in proton-antiproton collisions as a function of the W boson transverse momentum. Our analysis is based on data collected using the DD detector during the 1994{1995 Fermilab Tevatron run. We compare our results with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD, which predicts an angular distribution of (1 1 cos + 2 cos 2), where is the polar angle of the electron in the Collins-Soper frame. In the presence of QCD corrections, the parameters 1 and 2 become functions of p W T , the W boson transverse momentum. This measurement provides a test of next-to-leading order QCD corrections which are a non-negligible contribution to the W boson mass measurement.
We describe the design, construction, and performance of the upgraded DØmuon system for Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Significant improvements have been made to the major subsystems of the DØmuon detector: trigger scintillation counters, tracking detectors, and electronics. The Run II central muon detector has a new scintillation counter system inside the iron toroid and an improved scintillation counter system outside the iron toroid. In the forward region, new scintillation counter and tracking systems have been installed. Extensive shielding has been added in the forward region. A large fraction of the muon system electronics is also new.
Correlations in the azimuthal angle between the two largest transverse momentum jets have been measured using the D0 detector in p (p) over bar collisions at a center-of-mass energy root s=1.96 TeV. The analysis is based on an inclusive dijet event sample in the central rapidity region corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 150 pb(-1). Azimuthal correlations are stronger at larger transverse momenta. These are well described in perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant, except at large azimuthal differences where contributions with low transverse momentum are significant.
Using the exclusive decay B0s-->J/psi(mu+mu-)phi(K+K-), we report the most precise single measurement of the B0s lifetime. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of approximately 220 pb(-1) collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider in 2002-2004. We reconstruct 337 signal candidates, from which we extract the B0s lifetime, tau(B0s)=1.444(+0.098)(-0.090)(stat)+/-0.020(sys) ps. We also report a measurement for the lifetime of the B0 meson using the exclusive decay B0-->J/psi(mu+mu-)K*0(892)(K+pi-). We reconstruct 1370 signal candidates, obtaining tau(B0)=1.473(+0.052)(-0.050)(stat)+/-0.023(sys) ps, and the ratio of lifetimes, tau(B0s)/tau(B0)=0.980(+0.076)(-0.071)(stat)+/-0.003(sys).

We examine properties of tt¯ candidate events in lepton + jets final states to establish the helicities of W bosons in t→W+b decays. Our analysis is based on a direct calculation of a probability density for each event to correspond to a tt¯ final state, as a function of the helicity of the W boson. Using the 125 events/pb of data collected by the DØ experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron pp¯ Collider at s=1.8TeV, we obtain a longitudinal helicity fraction F0=0.56±0.31, consistent with the prediction of F0=0.70 from the standard model.
We describe a measurement of the mass of the top quark from the purely hadronic decay modes of tt¯ pairs using all-jet data produced in pp¯ collisions at s=1.8TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The data, which correspond to an integrated luminosity of 110.2±5.8pb−1, were collected with the DØ detector from 1992 to 1996. We find a top quark mass of 178.5±13.7(stat)±7.7(syst)GeV/c2.
We summarize and combine direct measurements of the width of the W boson in data collected by the Tevatron experiments CDF and D0 at Fermilab. Results from CDF and D0 RunI (1992-1995) have been combined with the CDF 200 pb^-1 results from the first period of RunII (2001-2004) and the recent 1 fb^-1 result in the electron channel from D0 (2002-2006). The results are corrected for any inconsistencies in parton distribution functions and assumptions about electroweak parameters used in the different analyses. The resulting Tevatron average for the width of the W boson is Gamma_W = 2,046 +- 49.
