Model for the curvature response of the CDF II drift chamber

Preprint · March 31, 2026 The CDF II experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron used a drift chamber to measure the momenta of charged particles. We present a model for the response of the drift chamber to the curvature of a charged particle's trajectory. Constraints on the model paramete ... Link to item Cite

The precision measurement of the W boson mass and its impact on physics

Preprint · September 12, 2024 As a mediator of the weak nuclear force, the W boson influences many properties of fundamental particles and their interactions. Understanding the W boson as accurately as possible, including knowing its mass, has been a priority in particle physics for de ... Link to item Cite
