1. Measurement of Z Forward-backward Asymmetry
p p-bar → γ*/Z + X → e+ e- + X Luminosity: 364/pb The method of Matrix Inversion: correct for the distortion in the measurement caused by the detector resolution and photon radiation in the final state. (unfold the detector effect) Chosen for its simplicity and lack of bias
4
Vertex interaction of Z → l+ l- :
- i ( g / cos θw ) γμ (cvl – cAl γ5) in which cvl and cAl are separately vector and axial-vector couplings Discuss in the rest-frame of the lepton pair Define AFB =[ total forward c.s. (cos θ*> 0) – total backward c.s. (cos θ*< 0) ] / total c.s.
5
Response Matrix: connecting observed values and actual values
6
The distribution of electron scattering cosθ
The distribution of electron scattering cosθ* (below, around and above Z pole)
7
Unfolded AFB, Agreement with the LO SM calculation is χ2 / ndof = 10

2. First Measurement of the W Boson Mass with CDF in Run II
MW = ± 48 MeV/c2 (the world's most precise single measurement) Candidates: 63,964 W→e ν 51,128 W→μν Measurement Technique: Extracted from a template fit to the transverse quantity distribution predicted by the MC simulation
