This article presents a measurement of the top quark mass using the CDF II detector at Fermilab. Colliding beams of protons and anti-protons at Fermilab's Tevatron (sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV) produce top/anti-top pairs, which decay to W^+W^-bbbar;…
The Fermilab Tevatron will be the world's highest energy hadron collider until the LHC is commissioned, it has the world's highest energy fixed target beams, and Fermilab will be the leading high energy physics laboratory in the US for the…
Precision measurements comparing the fundamental properties of conjugate particles and antiparticles constitute stringent tests of CPT invariance. We review recent precision measurements of the BASE collaboration, which improved the…
The DZERO detector is used to study proton-antiproton collisions at the 1800 GeV and 630 GeV center-of-mass energies available at the Fermilab Tevatron. To measure jets, the detector uses a sampling calorimeter composed of uranium and…
Quantum Chromodynamics has been studied extensively at Fermilab's Tevatron collider. Between 1992 and 1996 the D{\O}and CDF experiments, each accumulated approximately $100 \mathrm{pb}^{-1}$ of proton-antiproton collisions at a…

Several major milestones and discoveries were attained during the lifetime of the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab, from 1987 to 2011. One of the most important was the discovery of the top quark in 1995, followed by an…
The heaviest known Fermion particle -- the top quark -- was discovered at Fermilab in the first run of the Tevatron in 1995. However, besides its mere existence one needs to study its properties precisely in order to verify or falsify the…
The antiproton storage ring HESR to be constructed at GSI will open up a new range of perturbative and nonperturbative tests of QCD in exclusive and inclusive reactions. I discuss 21 tests of QCD using antiproton beams which can illuminate…
The Fermilab Tevatron collider experiments, CDF and \dz, have collected over 200 ${\rm pb}^{-1}$ of data at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV since March 2002 (RunII). Both experiments have investigated physics beyond the Standard Model; this paper…
