Mixing and CP Violation at the Tevatron
Measurements of meson mixing and CP violation parameters obtained by the CDF and D0 experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron are presented. These include results on $B_s$ and $D$ meson mixing, and searches for CP violation in the decay $B^+ \to J/ψK^+$, in mixing through semileptonic $B_s$ meson decays, and in the interference between mixing and decay in the process $B_s \to J/ψϕ$.

The Tevatron collider at Fermilab provides a very rich environment for the study of b-hadrons. Both the D0 and CDF experiments have collected a sample of about 1 fb^{-1}.

$B^0_s$ Mixing Studies At The Tevatron
Measurement of the $B^0_s$ oscillation frequency via $B^0_s$ mixing analysis provides a powerful constraint on CKM matrix elements. This note briefly reviews the motivation behind these analyses and describes the various steps that go into a mixing measurement. Recent results on $B^0_s$ mixing obtained by the CDF and DØcollaborations using the data samples collected at Tevtron Collider in the period 2002 - 2005 are presented.

Mixing and CP-Violation Measurements of $B^0$ Mesons from the Tevatron Collider
$B^0$ mixing measurements from the Tevatron Run I data are reported. These include time-integrated measurements of the average mixing parameter $\barχ$, six time-dependent oscillation measurements of $Δm_d$, and a time-dependent limit on $Δm_s$. Such measurements provide constraints on CKM matrix elements. A sample of $B^0/\bar{B}{^0} \to J/ψK^0_S$ decays is used to directly measure the CP-violation parameter $\sin(2β)$. This value agrees well with indirect constraints on the CKM matrix.

A Future High Statistics Charm Mixing Experiment Using the Fermilab Tevatron
We present an idea for a future D0-D0bar mixing and CP violation experiment to run at the Fermilab Tevatron. We estimate that in three years of running, such an experiment could reconstruct an order of magnitude more flavor-tagged D0->K+pi- decays than will be reconstructed by the B-factory experiments with their full data sets. The resulting sensitivity to CP-violating parameters |q/p| and Arg(q/p) is calculated from a global fit to CP-violating observables, and it is found to be much greater than current world sensitivity.

Recent Lifetime and Mixing Measurements at the Tevatron
We present the latest $B$ hadron lifetimes, $B^0_s$ mixing, and $D^0$ mixing measurements using up to 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by CDF and D0 experiments at Fermilab. The $B^0_s$ lifetime is measured from both $J/ψϕ$ (CP admixture) and flavor specific channels, and the $B_c$ lifetime is obtained from semileptonic channels. Following the $B^0_s$ oscillation frequency measurement at CDF in 2006, the D0 collaboration now observes $B^0_s$ oscillation at a significance of about 3$σ$. Since the first $D^0$ mixing evidence established at $B$ factories in 2007, CDF has observed $D^0$ mixing at a…

Measurement of the average time-integrated mixing probability of b-flavored hadrons produced at the Tevatron
We have measured the number of like-sign (LS) and opposite-sign (OS) lepton pairs arising from double semileptonic decays of $b$ and $\bar{b}$-hadrons, pair-produced at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The data samples were collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) during the 1992-1995 collider run by triggering on the existence of $μμ$ and $e μ$ candidates in an event. The observed ratio of LS to OS dileptons leads to a measurement of the average time-integrated mixing probability of all produced $b$-flavored hadrons which decay weakly, $\barχ = 0.152 \pm 0.007$ (stat.) $\pm 0.011…

Tevatron Run II combination of the effective leptonic electroweak mixing angle
Drell-Yan lepton pairs produced in the process $p \bar{p} \rightarrow \ell^+\ell^- + X$ through an intermediate $γ^*/Z$ boson have an asymmetry in their angular distribution related to the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the electroweak force and the associated mixing of its neutral gauge bosons. The CDF and D0 experiments have measured the effective-leptonic electroweak mixing parameter $\sin^2θ^{\rm lept}_{\rm eff}$ using electron and muon pairs selected from the full Tevatron proton-antiproton data sets collected in 2001-2011, corresponding to 9-10 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity.

Search for New Physics in the Bs Sector at the Tevatron
While B0 and B+ mesons are well studied at B-factories, large samples of B0s mesons are only available at the Tevatron so far. Since the B0s meson consists of quarks of the second and third generation it provides a complementary probe for searches for new physics effects. Results of the CDF and D0 experiments on the decays B0s -> mu+ mu- and B0s -> mu+ mu- phi as well as on CP violation in B0s mixing and in interference between mixing and decay are presented.

Top Properties and Rare Decays from the Tevatron
The top quark is the most recently discovered quark. Relatively little is known about its properties so far. Due to its very large mass of about $175 \rm GeV/c^2$, the top quark behaves differently from all other quarks and provides a unique environment for tests of the Standard Model. Furthermore, it is believed to yield sensitivity to physics beyond the Standard Model. This report discusses the latest measurements and studies of top quark properties and rare decays from the Tevatron in Run II.

The X(3872) at the Tevatron
I report results on the X(3872) from the Tevatron. Mass and other properties have been studied, with a focus on new results on the dipion mass spectrum in X -> J/PsiPi^+Pi^- decays. Dipions favor interpreting the decay as J/PsiRho, implying even C-parity for the X. Modeling uncertainties do not allow distinguishing between S- and P-wave decays of the J/PsiRho mode. Effects of Rho-Omega interference in X decay are also introduced.

Measurements of the masses, lifetimes and decay modes of hadrons at Tevatron
The Tevatron provides 1.96 TeV ppbar collisions and allows for collection of rich b-hadron samples to the two experiments CDF and D0.

Here we report the first measurement of polarization amplitudes in B^0_s charmless decays, world leading results on b-hadron lifetimes, and measurements of several other properties of b-hadrons.

In these proceedings, we will discuss two of the most fruitful areas in the Tevatron B-physics program: lifetimes and mixing. We'll examine the experimental issues driving these analyses, present a summary of the latest results, and discuss prospects for the future.

Measurement of direct CP violation parameters in B^+/- -> J/ψK^+/- and B^+/- ->J/psi pi^+/- decays with 10.4 fb^-1 of Tevatron data

Observation of Z Decays to b Quark Pairs at the Tevatron Collider
A search for Z boson decays to pairs of b-quark jets has been performed in the full dataset collected with the CDF detector at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider.

An absolute background prediction allows the extraction of an excess of events inconsistent with the background predict…

Searches for Massive tprime quarks decaying to W + q at the Tevatron

We reconstruct the mass of the heavy quark and perform a two-dimensional-fit to the observed (HT, Mreco) distributions to discriminate the new physics signal from standard model backgrounds. As no significant excess of events is observed, we exclude a fourth-generation tprime quark with a mass below 335 (296) GeV at 95%CL a…

We compare the data to a QCD prediction based on the HERWIG and QQ Monte Carlo generator programs.We find that the data are poorly described by the simulation, in which sequential semileptonic decays of single b quarks (b --> l c X with c --> l s X) are the major source of such lepton pairs.

Search for rare leptonic B decays at the Tevatron
Results of a search for the Flavor-Changing Neutral Current decay $B^0_{s,d} \to μ^+ μ^-$ using $p\bar{p}$ collision data at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV collected at Fermilab Tevatron collider by the CDF and DØdetectors are presented.
