Two Higgs Doublet Model and Lepton Polarization in the B -> K tau+ tau- Decay
The decay width, forward-backward asymmetry and tau lepton longitudinal and
transversal polarization for the exclusive (B -> K tau^+ tau^-) decay in a two
Higgs doublet model are computed. It is shown that the forward-backward
asymmetry and longitudinal polarization of the tau lepton are very effective
tools for establishing new physics.Comment: 25 pages, 20 figures, LaTeX formatte
Low-Energy Signals for a Minimal Gauge-Mediated Model
The inclusive branching ratio and the anomalous magnetic
moment of the muon are accurately calculated within a minimal
gauge-mediated SUSY-breaking model which naturally generates a large
. The predictions are in somewhat better agreement with current
experiments, and new data will soon critically test these predictions.
Predictions for branching ratios and asymmetries, to be
tested at future colliders, are also presented.Comment: LaTeX, 9 pages, including 1 (color) figure embedded using epsf

Measurement of correlated jet cross sections in collisions at TeV
We report on measurements of differential cross sections,
where the muon is from a semi-leptonic decay and the is
identified using precision track reconstruction in jets. The semi-differential
correlated cross sections, d/d\Et^{{\bar b}}, d/d\pt^{{\bar
b}}, and d/d for \pt^{\mu}>~9 GeV/c,
~10 GeV, ~1.5, are
presented and compared to next-to-leading order QCD calculations.Comment: Uses Latex, Article 12 point, figures appended as uuencoded file The

Measurement of the Meson Differential Cross Section, , in Collisions at TeV
This paper presents the first direct measurement of the meson
differential cross section, , in collisions at
TeV using a sample of pb accumulated by
the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). The cross section is measured in the
central rapidity region GeV/ by fully
reconstructing the meson decays and , where and .
A comparison is made to the theoretical QCD prediction calculated at
next-to-leading order.Comment: 14 pages. Submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett. The postscript file is at

Limits on and couplings from and production in collisions at TeV
Direct limits are set on and three-boson couplings in a
search for and production with high transverse momentum in
collisions at TeV, using the Collider Detector
at Fermilab. The results are in agreement with the SU(2) U(1) model of
electroweak interactions. Assuming Standard Model coupling, the the
limits are interpreted as direct evidence for a non-zero coupling at
subprocess energies near 500 GeV. Alternatively, assumiong identical and
couplings, bounds and are obtained at CL for a form factor scale 1000 GeV.Comment: 16 pages, submitted to PRL, URL:

Study of ttbar Production in ppbar Collisions Using Total Transverse Energy
We analyze a sample of W + jet events collected with the Collider Detector at
Fermilab (CDF) in ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV to study ttbar
production. We employ a simple kinematical variable "H", defined as the scalar
sum of the transverse energies of the lepton, neutrino and jets. For events
with a W boson and four or more jets, the shape of the "H" distribution
deviates by 3.8 standard deviations from that expected from known backgrounds
to ttbar production. However this distribution agrees well with a linear
combination of background and ttbar events, the agreement being best for a top
mass of 180 GeV/c^2.Comment: Postscript file (gzip+uuencode). 5-page, two-column PRL format

Further Properties of High-Mass Multijet Events at the Fermilab Proton-Antiproton Collider
The properties of high-mass multijet events produced at the Fermilab
proton-antiproton collider are compared with leading order QCD matrix element
predictions, QCD parton shower Monte Carlo predictions, and the predictions
from a model in which events are distributed uniformly over the available
multibody phase-space. Multijet distributions corresponding to (4N-4) variables
that span the N-body parameter space are found to be well described by the QCD
calculations for inclusive three-jet, four-jet, and five-jet events. The
agreement between data, QCD Matrix Element calculations, and QCD parton shower
Monte Carlo predictions suggests that 2 -> 2 scattering plus gluon radiation
provides a good first approximation to the full LO QCD matrix element for
events with three, four, or even five jets in the final state.Comment: 49 pages with 19 figures. Submitted to Phys. Rev. D. PostScript with
