These lectures contain an introduction to the search for supersymmetry at hadron colliders. The Tevatron is one of high-energy physics most sophisticated tools. The high center-of-mass energy of its proton-antiproton collisions makes it an…
I review how the top quark is embedded in the Standard Model and some its proposed extensions, and how it manifests itself in various hadron collider signals.
This paper discusses supersymmetry discovery potential of the upgraded D\O experiment at the Tevatron $p\bar{p}$ collider. Six final states with large transverse energy (momentum) leptons or photons (with or without large transverse…
The Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab with its centre of mass energy of 1.96 TeV is currently the only source for the production of top quarks. Its increased luminosity and centre of mass energy in Run II allow both collider…
Fermilab's Tevatron accelerator is recently performing at record luminosities that enables a program systematically addressing the physics of top quarks. The CDF and D0 collaborations have analyzed up to 5/fb of proton anti-proton…
Many models of Beyond the Standard Model physics involve heavy colored fermions. We study models where the new fermions have vector interactions and examine the connection between electroweak precision measurements and Higgs production. In…
The Tevatron has measured a discrepancy relative to the Standard Model prediction in the forward-backward asymmetry in top quark pair production. This asymmetry grows with the rapidity difference of the two top quarks. It also increases…
The CDF and D0 collaborations at Fermilab's Tevatron p-pbar collider have in place an extensive program to measure fundamental properties of the top quark. Recent results from Run I (sqrt-s = 1.8 TeV) and Run II (sqrt-s = 1.96 TeV) on the…
The standard model of particle physics is an extremely successful theory of fundamental interactions, but it has many known limitations. It is therefore widely believed to be an effective field theory that describes interactions near the…
A summary of the present Standard Model Higgs search and measurement of top quark mass at the Tevatron are presented. The sensitivity of the present Higgs search at the Tevatron is limited by statistics to a cross section approximately two…

The rapidly increasing integrated luminosity collected by the CDF and D0 detectors at the Tevatron Collider has resulted in a wealth of new results from searches for Higgs bosons in the extensions of the Standard Model. Tighter limits are…
Recent preliminary results obtained by the CDF and D0 collaborations on searches for the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson in p bar{p} collisions at sqrt{s} = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron are discussed. The data, corresponding to…
