We present an updated phenomenological analysis of the minimal flavor violating (MFV) effective theory, both at small and large tan beta, in the sector of Delta F=1 processes. We evaluate the bounds on the scale of new physics derived from…
We present the latest B physics results from the CDF experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We focus on a number of analyses, including a measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry of B -> K^(*) mu mu decays, determination of the…
At the Fermilab Tevatron, the CDF and D0 detectors are being used to study diboson production in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV. We summarize recent measurements of the W$\gamma$, Z$\gamma$, and WW cross-sections and limits on…
In a previous publication we noted that the time dependence of an incoherent $B^0-\bar{B}^0$ mixture undergoes a qualitative change when the magnitude of CP violation $\delta$ exceeds a critical value. Requiring, on physical grounds, that…
This paper presents the first direct measurement of the $B$ meson differential cross section, $d\sigma/dp_T$, in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.8$ TeV using a sample of $19.3 \pm 0.7$ pb$^{-1}$ accumulated by the Collider Detector at…
We report on a search for the flavor-changing neutral current decays $\Dz\to e^+e^-$ and $\Dz\to\mu^+\mu^-$, and the lepton-flavor violating decay $\Dz\to e^\pm\mu^\mp$. The measurement is based on $122 {fb}^{-1}$ of data collected by the…
An analysis from the D0 Collaboration measuring the charge asymmetry A^b_sl of like-sign dimuon events due to semileptonic b-hadron decays at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider is described. It differs by 3.2 standard deviations from the…
Over the course of the past years the experimental measurements performed by the two large collaborations, CDF and D{\O}, at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider have fueled advances in our understanding of physics at the energy frontier. At the…
The measurement of the CP violation in the b-meson system and of b-meson rare decays provides information about the electroweak symmetry breaking in terms of flavour structure of the CKM matrix and flavour changing neutral currents. The…
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…
I briefly review the results of recent searches for flavor-changing neutral current and lepton-flavor and lepton-number violating decays of D+, Ds, and D0 mesons (and their antiparticles) into modes containing muons and electrons. The…
We discuss the current and prospective limits that can be placed on supersymmetric contributions to $b\to s$ transitions in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with general flavour mixing amongst the squarks. We consider three…

We search for decays of the type B0(Bs)->h+h'- (where h,h'= K or pi) in 180 pb-1 of p-pbar collisions collected at the Tevatron by the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab. We report the first observation of the new mode Bs->K+K- with a…
We emphasize that the recent measurements of the B^0_s - bar B^0_s mass difference Delta M_s by the CDF and D0 collaborations offer an important model independent test of minimal flavour violation (MFV). The improved measurements of the…
