“…The number of overlapping inelastic interactions N for each bunch crossing is a Poisson-distributed variable that depends on the instantaneous luminosity. The observed distribution of the multiplicity of interaction vertexes yieldsN ≈ 0.2, 1.0, 2.0, and 6.0 for respectively, L ≈ 1 × 10 31 , 5 × 10 31 , 10 × 10 31 , and 30 × 10 31 luminosities [66]. The luminosity decreases as a function of time during the store because of the interactions of the beam with residual molecules of gas that escaped the vacuum of the beam pipe, beam-halo interactions, andp depletion due to the collisions.…”

The period in Pisa was not always work and study. Clubbing and wondering around at night time with Daniele, Fons (a.k.a. Piero), Marco ("uno dei due secchi...Io sono l'altro"), Luca and Natalino was a routine: an extremely fun routine. After that I moved to Fermilab. All my professional experience is connected to one outstanding name: Vadim (a.k.a. Dr. Vadim Rusu). Although the beginning was not pleasant 1 , it became very challenging and eventually amusing. In the "PHOS" adventure (Vadim knows) I had great conversations with him. My growth in physics is mostly due to him. During my work I also had the pleasure to work with the brilliant Wesley. His skills and his rapidity in performing complicated studies were impressive. Qiuguang was part of the diboson group, appointed to save the Standard Model against the new physics enemies. How can I forget about the Higgs meetings, where Wes, Qiuguang and I were constantly under the "gun bit"! Nonetheless the Higgs group, mainly represented by Eric, Tom and Homer, was a great help for my analysis. All of them were vital for my success. Last but not least, in the Fermilab period I had the pleasure to work and supervise Sabatino, Caterina, Matteo, Marco, and Ottavia. For the first time I experienced how it feels to be "on the other side of the barricade". I also spent great moments outside of the lab. Il ciociaro (a.k.a. Matteo) and Jesus were my roommates in the Maplewood house. Matteo and I often spent time together in the freezing winters in Batavia and, when back in Italy, either in Morolo or Gaeta. Matteo is a good friend of mine. Last in time but not in importance I am grateful to the "Baccaglio" group. I like to think about the members of such a group as the roles of the soccer players in the "figurina Panini del A.C Milan" that I had in my wallet when I was a kid. Giggino (a.k.a. Luigi) is the number 10 of the group: "il fantastista". Taurus (a.k.a. Andrea), the goalkeeper, il Cane (a.k.a. Giani), the right back, Renato (a.k.a. Stefano), the midfielder. ViXx (a.k.a. Vincenzo), Damiano, Manfredi and Ludovico are also part of this team. We often went to Chicago at night time clubbing. I am sure that nobody will ever forget the artificial bump in front of B/ 0 when coming back from Chicago at 4 a.m. Right ViXx? I would like to thank also Donato, with whom I am starting a truthful friendship, Alessandra, Gianfranco, Ivano, and Margherita. And I do not want to forget about my sister Kourtney, who I have known for a long time. Let me conclude with a proverb: "quando si chiude una porta si apre un portone". The "portone" is named Ana. 1 Marco: "Vadim, this plot does not seem right". Vadim: you "have a bug".

“…The individual charge collections output by the COT are subject to several corrections (hit-level corrections), applied in the off-line production, to eliminate a number of detector related conditions: hit merging, electronic pedestal subtraction, path-length correction high-voltage correction, z correction, angle and drift distance corrections, wire correction, super-layer correction, and pressure correction. An exhaustive description of these corrections can be found in [112,113]. In addition to the hit-level corrections [113] an accurate calibration of the uniformity of the dE /dx response in time and over the chamber volume was required.…”

Bibliography vi Contents viiThe search for the rare modes B 0 s → π + π − and B 0 → K + K − was performed in 2011, when only a subsample of the total CDF data sample was available for the analysis. On the other hand, the CP measurements have been performed in 2012 using the final CDF data sample. The thesis is organized as follows. In chap. 1 we outline the motivation of the measurements and the dynamics of bhadron decays, describing the CP violation phenomenon in detail. In chap. 2 we describe the experimental apparatus, while chap. 3 contains the description of the data sample used in the analysis and we show for the first time the sample mass distribution. Chapter 4 hosts a detailed description of the Monte Carlo samples 1.4. Factorization approaches 21 Efficiency definied as the ratio between the number of tracks reconstructed by SVT and the XFT-macthed offline silicon tracks.
