Using the full CDF Run II data sample, we report evidence for a new resonance, which we refer to as Bð5970Þ, found simultaneously in the B 0 π þ and B þ π − mass distributions with a significance of 4.4 standard deviations. We further report the first study of resonances consistent with orbitally excited B þ mesons and an updated measurement of the properties of orbitally excited B 0 and B 0 s mesons. We measure the masses and widths of all states, as well as the relative production rates of the B 1 , B Ã 2 , and Bð5970Þ states and the branching fraction of the B Ã0 s2 state to either B Ãþ K − and B þ K − . Furthermore, we measure the production rates of the orbitally excited B 0;þ states relative to the B 0;þ ground state. Visitor from Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico I, I-80138 Napoli, Italy.

We report on a measurement of the B 0 d mixing frequency and the calibration of an opposite-side flavor tagger in the D0 experiment. Various properties associated with the b quark on the opposite side of the reconstructed B meson are combined using a likelihood-ratio method into a single variable with enhanced tagging power. Its performance is tested with data, using a large sample of reconstructed semileptonic B ! D 0 X and B ! D X decays, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 1 fb ÿ1 . The events are divided into groups depending on the value of the combined tagging variable, and an independent analysis is performed in each group. Combining the results of these analyses, the overall effective tagging power is found to be "D
