Some Recent Talks

Stony Brook Colloquium on LHC (and as .pptx)
Tevatron Standard Model & Higgs (pdf), (and as ppt) APS April Meeting, 2009
DØ Results for Summer '07 - A Survery, Fermilab Wine-and-Cheese Seminar, July '07
DØ Results with 1 fb^-1 at LBNL PAM, 11/06

DØ Research Participation (The DØ Collaboration pages)

DØ W Mass group. Our recent measurement, M_W = 80.401 ± 0.043 GeV/c² is published in Phys.Rev.Lett.103:141801,2009 (also available at the hep-ex and DØ servers). Tevatron combinations of the W mass are found at the Tevatron Electroweak Working Group, and a summary of electroweak combinations and constraints on the Higgs mass can be found at the LEP EWWG page.
DØ Higgs Physics group. See the most recent Higgs results combination from DØ, CDF and earlier LEP searches (alternative location)
DØ hardware and software projects
- Silicon track trigger: Main information and my own information

The original lineshape template function for the runI W+H analysis was extermely slow because a numerical convolution intergral was performed. Satish Desai has determined that the function can be evaluated using error functions in place of the convolution integrals. A much faster version is now available.

Atlas Research Participation (The Atlas Collaboration pages)

W+jets cross section measurements. See our first result
Leptoquark searches. See our first results, Phys. Rev. D 83, 112006 (2011)
Technical Work
- Using E/p in conversions for EM calorimeter calibration
- Calorimeter calibration using Z->ee, W->ev and J/psi->ee events
