The Run II Pots • 8 detectors fully installed (D1, D2, A1I, A2I, P1U, P1D, P2D) • All will be in place after October shutdown
Data distributions Elasticx distribution peaks at 0 DØ not Preliminary at all really
Highlights • Two new Run I analyses due for publication : • Diffractive W (+ jets) and Z • Double Diffractive Dijets • We’re all looking forward to Run II analysis ! • Detectors working fine • First physics in December / January
