Search for the Higgs Boson Using Neural Networks in Events with Missing Energy and b-Quark Jets in pp̄ Collisions at √s=1.96TeV
Physical Review Letters 104:14 (2010)
Abstract:
We report on a search for the standard model Higgs boson produced in association with a W or Z boson in pp̄ collisions at √s=1.96TeV recorded by the CDF II experiment at the Tevatron in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.1fb-1. We consider events which have no identified charged leptons, an imbalance in transverse momentum, and two or three jets where at least one jet is consistent with originating from the decay of a b hadron. We find good agreement between data and background predictions. We place 95% confidence level upper limits on the production cross section for several Higgs boson masses ranging from 110GeV/c2 to 150GeV/c2. For a mass of 115GeV/c2 the observed (expected) limit is 6.9 (5.6) times the standard model prediction. © 2010 The American Physical Society.Investigating the disc-jet coupling in accreting compact objects using the black hole candidate Swift J1753.5-0127

First measurement of the b-Jet cross section in events with a W boson in pp̄ collisions at √s=1.96TeV
Physical Review Letters 104:13 (2010)
Abstract:
The cross section for jets from b quarks produced with a W boson has been measured in pp̄ collision data from 1.9fb-1 of integrated luminosity recorded by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron. The W+b-jets process poses a significant background in measurements of top quark production and prominent searches for the Higgs boson. We measure a b-jet cross section of 2.74±0.27(stat)±0.42(syst)pb in association with a single flavor of leptonic W boson decay over a limited kinematic phase space. This measured result cannot be accommodated in several available theoretical predictions. © 2010 The American Physical Society.Measurements of D meson decays to two pseudoscalar mesons
