The Collider Detector at Fermilab as a B Physics Experiment

Presented by Pat Lukens, Fermilab

The Tevatron proton-antiproton collider has been operating at Fermilab since 2001. In addition to its rich program of top quark studies, new phenomenon searches, and electro-weak measurements, the Collider Detector at Fermilab provides excellent data for studying the properties of the b quark and particles containing b quarks. This talk will describe the most important features of the detector that make b physics measurements possible, and provide a survey of results from the current data.
