“…The superconducting solenoidal magnet was designed [73,74] to optimize the momentum resolution, δp T /p T , and tracking pattern recognition within the constraints imposed by the Run I detector. The overall physical size of the magnet was determined by the available space within the central calorimeter vacuum vessel: 2.73 m in length and 1.42 m in diameter.…”

The DØ experiment enjoyed a very successful data-collection run at the Fermilab Tevatron collider between 1992 and 1996. Since then, the detector has been upgraded to take advantage of improvements to the Tevatron and to enhance its physics capabilities. We describe the new elements of the detector, including the silicon microstrip tracker, central fiber tracker, solenoidal magnet, preshower detectors, forward muon detector, and forward proton detector. The uranium/liquid-argon calorimeters and central muon detector, remaining from Run I, are discussed briefly. We also present the associated electronics, triggering, and data acquisition systems, along with the design and implementation of software specific to DØ.

“…It is 2.73 m in length and has an outer diameter of 1.42 m, with a thickness of ∼1 radiation lengths (X 0 ) at η = 0. It was designed [27,28] to optimize the momentum resolution, δp T /p T , and tracking pattern recognition. The addition of the solenoidal magnet for central tracking system made a substantial improvement in the DØ low p T program.…”

Term Degree Awarded: Fall 2005 University of KansasThis dissertation presents measurements of the inclusive production cross sections for W and Z gauge bosons decaying through the electron channel with pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. The ratio of these cross sections is then used to extract the W total width.The Standard Model (SM) of electroweak and strong interactions is a collection of theories which together encompass what is currently known about the elementary particles that make up matter and the forces through which they interact. Experimentalists are constantly searching for violations of the Standard Model by making precision measurements of predicted interactions. The decay of the W boson is one such interaction. The rate of its decay is reflected in its width which is predicted to high precision using Standard Model-based calculations. Therefore, a high precision experimental width measurement would be very sensitive to any such violation. In principle the W and Z boson production cross sections could also be good Standard Model tests. However, a precise knowledge of integrated luminosity is required which is unfortunately difficult to obtain at the Tevatron. In fact, the W and Z cross section results can be used to obtain a more precise luminosity measurement.The data set consists of a total integrated luminosity of 177 pb Sources of uncertainty arise from limited statistics (stat), systematic effects (sys), parton distribution function parameters (pdf) and integrated luminosity (lumi). Indirect measurements of the branching ratio, Br(W → e ± ν), and the W total width, Γ W , are extracted from the ratio, R:
