Spectroscopy and Decay of B Hadrons at the Tevatron
This paper reviews the spectroscopy and decay of B hadrons at the Tevatron.
We discuss the spectroscopy of excited B states (B**, Bs**) and the observation
of the Sigma_b baryon at the Tevatron. The second part of this review discusses
the decays of B hadrons and measurements of branching fractions. We focus on
charmless two-body decays of B->hh.Comment: Contribution submitted to the proceedings of the Conference on Heavy

Future of B Physics at CDF and DO
In this contribution to the panel discussion on ``The Future of Hadron B
Experiments'' held at the 8th International Conference on B Physics at Hadron
Machines (Beauty 2002) at Santiago de Compostela, Spain, we explore the physics
potential for B physics at CDF and DO in five years and beyond. After a brief
introduction to precision flavour physics, we concentrate our discussion on the
future of CP violation by evaluating the prospects for measuring the CKM angles
beta, gamma and alpha at the Tevatron Collider experiments CDF and DO by the
end of Run II.Comment: Posting for the archives: Contribution to Panel Discussion on "The

B States at the Tevatron
The CDF and D0 experiments have produced a wealth of heavy flavour physics
results since the beginning of Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron. We review
recent measurements of B hadron states including excited B states (B^{**},
B_s^{**}) and the Bc+ meson. We also summarize the discoveries of the Sigma_b
baryon states and the Xi_b baryon.Comment: Contribution to proceedings of Heavy Quarks and Leptons, Melbourne,

Physics of B0s Mesons and Bottom Baryons
We discuss the physics of B0s mesons focusing on CP violation in B0s -> J/Psi
Phi decays at the Tevatron. We summarize measurements of the properties of
bottom baryons at the Tevatron including the Sigma_b states and the Xi_b
baryon. We also discuss the discovery of the Omega_b baryon.Comment: Contribution to proceedings of CIPANP 2009 conference, La Jolla, May

B Physics at the Tevatron
After a five year upgrade period, the Fermilab experiments CDF and DO are
taking high quality data in Run II of the Tevatron Collider. We report on the
start-up of both detectors and present a selection of first B physics results
from the Tevatron. We also compare different B hadron producers such as the
Y(4S) with the hadron collider environment and discuss general features of B
physics at a hadron collider.Comment: Posting for the archives: Invited review talk to appear in

Brief Report from the Tevatron
We report on the B physics prospects from the Fermilab Tevatron, summarizing
the B physics goals of the CDF and DO experiments using their upgraded
detectors. We discuss the time schedule for completion of the detector upgrades
and summarize the current measurement of the CP violation parameter sin(2 beta)
at CDF.Comment: Final version as it will appear in Proceedings of XIX International
