Research Showcase

A really lovely CDF top quark candidate event.

The data from the CDF detector for a top-quark event produced in the proton-antiproton interactions in the Fermilab Tevatron. We are looking at a representation of the detector from a vantage point on the beam, and along the proton direction. The axis of the colliding beams is at the center of the blue circle, which represents the cylindrical coil of the CDF solenoidal magnet. . .
