Results of a study of the substructure of the highest transverse momentum (pT) jets observed by the CDF collaboration are presented. Events containing at least one jet with pT > 400 GeV/c in a sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.95 inverse fb, collected in 1.96 TeV proton-antiproton collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron collider, are selected. A study of the jet mass, angularity, and planar-flow distributions is presented, and the measurements are compared with predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics. A search for boosted top-quark production is also described, leading to a 95% confidence level upper limit of 38 fb on the production cross section of top quarks with pT > 400 GeV/c.

We report on a search for a spin-zero non-standard-model particle in proton-antiproton collisions collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab at a center-of-mass-energy of 1.96 TeV. This particle, the $phi$ boson, is expected to decay into a botto
m-antibottom quark pair and to be produced in association with at least one bottom quark. The data sample consists of events with three jets identified as initiated by bottom quarks and corresponds to $5.4~text{fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. In each event, the invariant mass of the two most energetic jets is studied by looking for deviations from the multijet background, which is modeled using data. No evidence is found for such particle. Exclusion upper limits ranging from 20 to 2 pb are set for the product of production cross sections times branching fraction for hypothetical $phi$ boson with mass between 100 and 300 GeV/$c^2$. These are the most stringent constraints to date.
The analysis of data on hyperon transverse momentum distributions, dN/dPt, that were gathered from various experiments (ISR, STAR, UA1, UA5 and CDF) reveals an important difference in the dynamics of multiparticle production in proton-proton vs. anti
proton-proton collisions in the region of transverse momenta 0.3 GeV/c < Pt < 3 GeV/c. Hyperons produced with proton beams display the sharp exponential slope at low Pt, while spectra prodused with antiproton beam dont. Since LHC experiments have proton projectiles, the spectra of baryon production should seem softer in comparison to expectations, because the Monte Carlo simulations were based on the Tevatron antiproton-proton data. From the point of view of Quark-Gluon String Model, the most important contribution into the particle production spectra goes from antidiquark-diquark string fragmentation that exists only in the topological diagram for antiproton-proton collisions and is a very interesting object for investigation even at lower energies. This study may have an impact not only on interpretation of LHC results, but also on the cosmic ray physics and astrophysics, where the baryon contribution into matter-antimatter asymmetry is being studied.
The Collider Detector at Fermilab collected a unique sample of jets originating from bottom-quark fragmentation ($b$-jets) by selecting online proton-antiproton ($pbar{p}$) collisions with a vertex displaced from the $pbar{p}$ interaction point, cons
istent with the decay of a bottom-quark hadron. This data set, collected at a center-of-mass energy of $sqrt{s}=$1.96 TeV, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $5.4~rm{fb}^{-1}$, is used to measure the $Z$-boson production cross section times branching ratio into $bbar{b}$. The number of $Zrightarrow bbar{b}$ events is determined by fitting the dijet-mass distribution while constraining the dominant $b$-jet background, originating from QCD multijet events, with data. The result, $sigma(pbar{p} rightarrow Z) times mathcal{B}(Z rightarrow bbar{b})= 1.11pm 0.08(text{stat}) pm 0.14(text{syst})~text{nb}$, is the most precise measurement of this process, and is consistent with the standard-model prediction. The data set is also used to search for Higgs-boson production. No significant signal is expected in our data and the first upper limit on the cross section for the inclusive $pbar p rightarrow Hrightarrow bbar b$ process at $sqrt{s}=$1.96 TeV is set, corresponding to 33 times the expected standard-model cross section, or $sigma = 40.6$ pb, at the 95% confidence level.
We present various properties of the production of the $X(3872)$ and $psi(2S)$ states based on 10.4 fb$^{-1}$ collected by D0 experiment in Tevatron $p bar p$ collisions at $sqrt{s}$ = 1.96 TeV. For both states, we measure the nonprompt fraction $f_{
NP}$ of the inclusive production rate due to decays of $b$-flavored hadrons. We find the $f_{NP}$ values systematically below those obtained at the LHC. The $f_{NP}$ fraction for $psi(2S)$ increases with transverse momentum whereas for the X(3872) it is constant within large uncertainties, in agreement with the LHC results. The ratio of prompt to nonprompt $psi(2S)$ production, $(1 - f_{NP}) / f_{NP}$, decreases only slightly going from the Tevatron to the LHC, but for the $X(3872)$ this ratio decreases by a factor of about 3. We test the soft-pion signature of the $X(3872)$ modeled as a weakly-bound charm-meson pair by studying the production of the $X(3872)$ as a function of the kinetic energy of the $X(3872)$ and the pion in the $X(3872)pi$ center-of-mass frame. For a subsample consistent with prompt production, the results are incompatible with a strong enhancement in the production of the $X(3872)$ at small kinetic energy of the $X(3872)$ and the $pi$ in the $X(3872)pi$ center-of-mass frame expected for the $X$+soft-pion production mechanism. For events consistent with being due to decays of $b$ hadrons, there is no significant evidence for the soft-pion effect but its presence at the level expected for the binding energy of 0.17 MeV and the momentum scale $Lambda=M(pi)$ is not ruled out.
We report on a measurement of the $D^{+}$-meson production cross section as a function of transverse momentum ($p_T$) in proton-antiproton ($pbar{p}$) collisions at 1.96 TeV center-of-mass energy, using the full data set collected by the Collider Det
ector at Fermilab in Tevatron Run II and corresponding to 10 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. We use $D^{+} to K^-pi^+pi^+$ decays fully reconstructed in the central rapidity region $|y|<1$ with transverse momentum down to 1.5 GeV/$c$, a range previously unexplored in $pbar{p}$ collisions. Inelastic $pbar{p}$-scattering events are selected online using minimally-biasing requirements followed by an optimized offline selection. The $K^-pi^+pi^+$ mass distribution is used to identify the $D^+$ signal, and the $D^+$ transverse impact-parameter distribution is used to separate prompt production, occurring directly in the hard scattering process, from secondary production from $b$-hadron decays. We obtain a prompt $D^+$ signal of 2950 candidates corresponding to a total cross section $sigma(D^+, 1.5 < p_T < 14.5~mbox{GeV/}c, |y|<1) = 71.9 pm 6.8 (mbox{stat}) pm 9.3 (mbox{syst})~mu$b. While the measured cross sections are consistent with theoretical estimates in each $p_T$ bin, the shape of the observed $p_T$ spectrum is softer than the expectation from quantum chromodynamics. The results are unique in $pbar{p}$ collisions and can improve the shape and uncertainties of future predictions.
