1. B Physics at the Tevatron IILifetimes and DG Ronald Lipton, Fermilab For the CDF and D0 collaborations • New results for Moriond 2005 • Lifetimes in semileptonic decays • B0,B+ (CDF) • Bs (D0) • Lifetimes in Hadronic decays (CDF) • DG Bs (D0) Ronald Lipton, Moriond EW2005

2. Lifetime Measurements • Collider experiments are beginning to provide precision measurements of Bs, Lb, Bc , B0, B- lifetimes • Verify HQET predictions • Input to other measurements • Try to measure ratios to minimize systematics • Pre-Moriond results: CDF D0 Ronald Lipton, Moriond EW2005

3.

18. DG Comparisons • D0 and CDF DG/G results are consistent • D0 result is close to the theory prediction of 0.12±0.05 • The WA flavor specific lifetime provides significant improvement to DG and allows for a meaningful cosf constraint Including systematic errors: Ronald Lipton, Moriond EW2005
