We present new results on the lifetimes and widths of $B$ hadrons based on 300-450 pb$^{-1}$ of data collected by CDF and D{\O}at the Fermilab Tevatron. Lifetimes were measured in semileptonic decays as well as fully reconstructed hadronic…
In this decade, there are huge efforts to explore B-meson decays, which offer interesting probes to test the quark-flavour structure of the Standard Model and to search for signals of new physics. Exciting new perspectives for these studies…
This paper is concerned with the physics of meson decays to J/psi and phi.These decays have been observed at the Tevatron [7] and, in particular, should be copiously observed at the LHCb detector. This paper gives a concise presentation of…
Rare B meson decays are an excellent probe for beyond the Standard Model physics. Two very sensitive processes are the Bs(d) -> \mu^{+} \mu^{-} and b -> s\mu^{+}\mu^{-} decays. We report recent results at a center of mass energy of sqrt{s}…
The Fermilab Tevatron (p pbar), operating at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV, is a rich source of B hadrons. The large acceptance in terms of rapidity and transverse momentum of the charged particle tracking system and the muon system make the upgraded…
Run II at the Tevatron has seen an explosion of results related to the Bs meson, ranging from tests of QCD models, to probes of electro-weak symmetry breaking, to direct searches for new physics effects. I will briefly summarize the CDF and…
