Recent results on jet physics at the Fermilab Tevatron $p\bar p$ collider from the CDF Collaboration are presented. The main focus is put on results for the inclusive jet and dijet, $b\bar b$ dijet, $W/Z+$jets and $W/Z+b$-jets production.
We measure the time dependence of the ratio of decay rates for D0 -> K+ pi- to the Cabibbo-favored decay D0 -> K- pi+. The charge conjugate decays are included. A signal of 3.3 x 10^4 D*+ -> pi+ D0, D0 -> K+ pi- decays is obtained with D0…
The D0 and CDF experiments have been taking data at the Run 2 of the Tevatron Collider since 2001. We present a selection of recent results, most of them obtained with an integrated luminosity of $\simeq$ 1 fb$^{-1}$. I will describe the…

The Tevatron, with $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$1.96 TeV, can produce all flavors of $B$ hadrons and allows for unprecedented studies in the $B$ physics sector. These range from measurements of $B$ hadron properties to searches of…
The interplay of experiment and theory is explored in the context of current data on b and c decay. Measurements of |Vcb| and |Vub| are extracted from existing data. Conservative estimates give |Vcb|=(42.4 +/- 1.2{exp} +/- 2.3{thy})x10^{-3}…

We present a measurement of R_B, the ratio of the branching fraction for the rare decay D0 -> K+ pi- to that for the Cabibbo-favored decay D0 -> K- pi+. Charge conjugate decays are implicitly included. A signal of 2005 +/- 104 events for…
