Abstract:

We present the results of a search for new physics in the jets plus missing transverse energy data sample collected from 368 pb(-1) of pp collisions at square root of s = 1.96 TeV recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We compare the number of events observed in the data with a data-based estimate of the standard model backgrounds contributing to this signature. We observe no significant excess of events, and we interpret this null result in terms of lower limits on the fundamental Planck scale for a large extra dimensions scenario.

Abstract:

A search for direct production of scalar bottom quarks (b) is performed with 310 pb(-1) of data collected by the D0 experiment in pp collisions at square root s = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The topology analyzed consists of two b jets and an imbalance in transverse momentum due to undetected neutralinos (chi(1)0), with chi(1)0 assumed to be the lightest supersymmetric particle. We find the data consistent with standard model expectations, and set a 95% C.L. exclusion domain in the (m(b), m(chi(1)0)) mass plane, improving significantly upon the results from run I of the Tevatron.

Abstract:

We present a search for the production of a new heavy gauge boson W′ that decays to a top quark and a bottom quark. We have analyzed 230 pb-1 of data collected with the DØ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. No significant excess of events above the standard model expectation is found in any region of the final state invariant mass distribution. We set upper limits on the production cross section of W′ bosons times branching ratio to top quarks at the 95% confidence level for several different W′ boson masses. We exclude masses between 200 and 610 GeV for a W′ boson with standard-model-like couplings, between 200 and 630 GeV for a W′ boson with right-handed couplings that is allowed to decay to both leptons and quarks, and between 200 and 670 GeV for a W′ boson with right-handed couplings that is only allowed to decay to quarks. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract:

We present the results of a search for a new particle X produced in p over(p, ̄) collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96   TeV and subsequently decaying to Zγ. The search uses 0.3 fb-1 of data collected with the DØ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We set limits on the production cross section times the branching fraction σ (p over(p, ̄) → X) × B (X → Z γ) that range from 0.4 to 3.5 pb at the 95% C.L. for X with invariant masses between 100 and 1000   GeV / c2, over a wide range of X decay widths. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.
