description

During the data-taking period from 1992 to 1996 (Run I), the Tevatron experiments CDF and DO collected about 125pb¯1 of proton-antiproton collision data at center of mass energies of 1.8 TeV. Since then, the Fermilab accelerator complex has been upgraded to provide collisions at 1.96 TeV and an initial design luminosity of 8.6 × 1031cm¯2s¯1. The new data-taking period (Run II) has started in March 2001 and is expected to deliver more than 10fb¯1 by the year 2007. This dataset is the basis for a rich physics program, including precision mass measurements of the W-boson and top-quark as well as the possibility to discover a light Higgs boson[1].
