We make an explicit formulation for the proton decay rate in the minimal renormalizable supersymmetric (SUSY) SO (10)

The complete tables of Clebsch-Gordan (CG) coefficients for a wide class of SO(10) SUSY grand unified theories (GUTs) are given. Explicit expressions of states of all corresponding multiplets under standard model gauge group

The kinematic properties of t t events are studied in the Wϩmultijet channel using data collected with the CDF detector during the 1992-1995 runs at the Fermilab Tevatron collider corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 109 pb Ϫ1 . Distributions of a variety of kinematic variables chosen to be sensitive to different aspects of t t production are compared with those expected from Monte Carlo calculations. A sample of 34 events rich in t t pairs is obtained by requiring at least one jet identified by the silicon vertex detector ͑SVX͒ as having a displaced vertex consistent with the decay of a b hadron. The data are found to be in good agreement with predictions of the leading order t t matrix element with color coherent parton shower evolution. ͓S0556-2821͑99͒04007-2͔

We have observed bottom-charm mesons via the decay mode B-c(+/-) --> J/psi l(+/-)v in 1.8 TeV p (p) over bar collisions using the CDF detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. A fit of background and signal contributions to the J/psi l mass distribution yielded 20.4(-5.5)(+6.2) events from B-c mesons. A fit to the same distribution with background alone was rejected at the level of 4.8 standard deviations. We measured the B-c(+) mass to be 6.40 +/- 0.39(stat) +/- 0.13(syst) GeV/c(2) and the B-c(+) lifetime to be 0.46(-0.16)(+0.18)(stat) +/- 0.03(syst) ps. Our measured yield (production cross section times branching ratio) for B-c(+) --> J/psi l(+)v relative to that for B+ --> J/psi K+ is 0.132(-0.037)(+0.041)(stat) +/- 0.031 (syst)(-0.020)(+0.032)(lifetime)
