Abstract:

We present a measurement of σ(pp̄→W)×B(W→eν) at s=1.96TeV, using electrons identified in the forward region (1.2<|η|<2.8) of the CDF II detector, in 223pb-1 of data. We measure σ×B=2796±13(stat)-90+95(syst)±162(lum)pb. Combining this result with a previous CDF measurement obtained using electrons in the central region (|η| 1), we present the first measurement of the ratio of central-electron to forward-electron W partial cross sections Rexp=0.925±0.006(stat)±0.032(syst), consistent with theoretical predictions using Coordinated Theoretical-Experimental Project on QCD (CTEQ) and Martin-Roberts-Stirling-Thorne (MRST) parton distribution functions. © 2007 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We report on measurements of the inclusive jet production cross section as a function of the jet transverse momentum in pp̄ collisions at s=1.96TeV, using the kT algorithm and a data sample corresponding to 1.0fb-1 collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab in run II. The measurements are carried out in five different jet rapidity regions with |yjet|<2.1 and transverse momentum in the range 54

Abstract:

We measure the ratio of cross section times branching fraction, Rp=σχc2B(χc2→J/ψγ)/σχc1B(χc1→J/ ψγ), in 1.1fb-1 of pp̄ collisions at s=1.96TeV. This measurement covers the kinematic range pT(J/ψ)>4.0GeV/c, η(J/ψ)<1.0, and pT(γ)>1.0GeV/c. For events due to prompt processes, we find Rp=0.395±0.016(stat)±0.015(syst). This result represents a significant improvement in precision over previous measurements of prompt χc1,2 hadro production. © 2007 The American Physical Society.
