Abstract

This paper reviews the spectroscopy and decay of B hadrons at the Tevatron. We discuss the spectroscopy of excited B states (B**, Bs**) and the observation of the Sigma_b baryon at the Tevatron. The second part of this review discusses the decays of B hadrons and measurements of branching fractions. We focus on charmless two-body decays of B->hh.
