The top quark has been discovered in 1995 at the CDF and DO experiments located in the Tevatron ring at the Fermilab laboratory. After more than a decade the Tevatron collider, with its center-of-mass energy collisions of 1.96 TeV, is still…
I will briefly review the physics of top quark at high energy colliders. A new discovery of single-top event at the Fermilab Tevatron is expected. At the CERN Large Hadron Collider, detailed top quark properties can be measured and new…
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.
This document is the second in a series of reports on the exciting physics that would be accessible at Fermilab in the event of an upgraded proton source. Where the first report covered a broad range of topics, this report focuses…
Most present and future electron accelerators require bright sources. Invented less than ten years ago, the photo-injector the principle of which is briefly recalled, has already demonstrated that it can provide very bright beams. In this…
Recent analyses by the CDF and D0 Collaborations of jet data produced in proton-antiproton collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider are presented. These include new studies of the inclusive jet production cross section, a measurement of…
