B-Physics at Dzero (it's not just production any more)
Hal Evans


Abstract


With major upgrades to the detector and the prospect of orders of magnitude more data in Run II at the Tevatron, the Dzero experiment is poised to make contributions to all aspects of the physics of the b-quark. I will summarize the B-physics aspirations of the experiment and motivate its goals based on improvements in the detector. Special attention will be paid to putting the anticipated Dzero measurements into the perspective of the global B-physics program over the next decade.
