The CDF Run II Detector
• New DAQ
Track based trigger at L1 (XFT)
Impact parameter trigger at L2 (SVT)
(by far most important upgrade for B and charm)
• New Silicon system
– 7-8 layer silicon detector (up to ||~2)
Improved b-tagging
Extended muon systems (to ||~1.5)
• Time of flight detector(particle ID)
• New central drift chamber
–Detector upgrades give new charm and bottom physics program
–Charm Results already competitive with world’s best

D*/D0 Signal Extraction
•Use triggered track pairs
•Combine D0 with soft  for D*
•No particle ID
Selection cuts:

Relative Acceptance Corrections from MC
Different efficiencies due to:
• Nuclear Interactions of K/, K+/K• ,K decay length
• trigger bias (due to different
opening angle)

• Events from two-track trigger use first 63pb-1 of data
•Normalize to D0→ to cancel acceptance and trigger effects
