Observation of Diffractive W/Z Observed clear Diffractively produced W and Z boson signals Background from fake W/Z gives negligible change in gap fractions Sample Diffractive Probability Background All Fluctuates to Data Central W(1.08 + 0.19 - 0.17)% 7.7 Forward W(0.64 + 0.18 - 0.16)% 5.3 All W(0.89 + 0.19 – 0.17)% 7.5 All Z (1.44 + 0.61 - 0.52)% 4.4 n cal n L0 Diffractive W and Z Boson Signals Central electron WForward electron W All Z n cal n L0 n cal n L0 DØ Preliminary

R D = (W D ) / ( Z D ) = R*(W D /W)/ (Z D /Z) where W D /W and Z D /Z are the measured gap fractions from this letter and R= (W)/ (Z) = 10.43 ±0.15 (stat) ±0.20 (sys)±0.10 (NLO) B. Abbott et al. (D0 Collaboration), Phys. Rev D 61, 072001 (2000). Substituting in these values gives R D = 6.45 + 3.06 - 2.64 This value of R D is somewhat lower than, but consistent with, the non-diffractive ratio. DØ Preliminary W/Z Cross Section Ratio
12
Calculate = p/p for W boson events using calorimeter : Diffractive W Boson data E t i e y i /2E Sum over all particles in event: those with largest E T and closest to gap given highest weight in sum (particles lost down beam pipe at – do not contribute Use only events with rapidity gap {(0,0) bin} to minimize non-diffractive background Correction factor 1.5+-0.3 derived from MC used to calculated data DØ Preliminary
13
CDF {PRL 78 2698 (1997)} measured R W = (1.15 ± 0.55)% for | |<1.1 where R W = Ratio of diffractive/non-diffractive W (a significance of 3.8 ) We measured (1.08 +0.19 –0.17)% for | |<1.1 No problem right? Well… CDF corrects data for gap acceptance using MC and get 0.81 correction, so get an uncorrected value (0.93 ± 0.44)%, which is still consistent with our uncorrected data value. Our measured gap acceptance is (21 ± 4)%, so our corrected value is 5.1%!! Comparison of other gap acceptances for central objects from CDF and DØ using 2-D method: DØ central jets 18% (q) 40%(g) CDF central B 22%(q) 37% overall CDF J/ 29% It will be interesting to see Run II diffractive W boson results!

Forward Proton Detector Layout 9 momentum spectrometers comprised of 18 Roman Pots Scintillating fiber detectors can be brought close (~6 mm) to the beam to track scattered protons and anti-protons Reconstructed track is used to calculate momentum fraction and scattering angle –Much better resolution than available with gaps alone Cover a t region (0 < t < 4.5 GeV 2 ) never before explored at Tevatron energies Allows combination of tracks with high-p T scattering in the central detector D S Q2Q2 Q3Q3 Q4Q4 S A1A1 A2A2 P 1U P 2I P 2O P 1D p p Z(m) D2 D1 23 33 59 3323 0 57 Veto Q4Q4 Q3Q3 Q2Q2

Tagged Elastic Trigger NO HITS IN LMN OR LMS OR VCN OR VCS NO EARLY HALO HITS IN A1U-A2U, P1D-P2D IN TIME HITS IN A1U-A2U, P1D-P2D A1UA2U P2DP1D P Pbar Halo Early Hits Approximately 3 million elastic events recorded About 1% (30,000) pass multiplicity cuts –Multiplicity cuts used for ease of reconstruction and to remove halo spray background from Tevatron 1 or 0 hits in each of 12 planes of the PD spectrometer Each frame of both PD detectors needs a valid segment (i.e. 6 segments total) Segments turned into hits and then reconstructed into tracks LM VC
21
Segments to Hits y x 10 u x v Segments (270 m) Combination of fibers in a frame determine a segment Need two out of three possible segments to get a hit –U/V, U/X, V/X Can reconstruct an x and y Can also get an x directly from the x segment Require a hit in both detectors of spectrometer

23
Spectrometer Alignment Good correlation in hits between detectors of the same spectrometer but shifted from kinematic expectations –3mm in x and 1 mm in y P1D x vs. P1D x (mm) P1D y vs. P2D y (mm) DØ Preliminary
24
t distribution Before alignment After alignment Gaussian fit After alignment correction, peaks at 0 (as expected for elastics); MC resolution is 0.013 (including z smearing and dead channels), data is 0.015, 1.15 times larger The t distribution has a minimum of 0.8 GeV 2 ; t min is determined by how close the pots are from the beam, shape is in rough agreement with expected angular acceptance from MC.
