The CDF Collaboration: A Journey from Early Days to Discoveries at Fermilab

This document chronicles the history of the CDF collaboration from its inception in the late 1970s until the first collision in 1984, detailing key milestones and scientific achievements. It highlights the initial proposal for collaboration between Japan and the US, the approval of funding, and the development of crucial detector components. The journey includes significant discoveries, such as the J/psi particle, and showcases the teamwork across international laboratories. The narrative reflects on the collaboration's standing today within the context of high-energy physics experiments.

  1. CDF, Early Days and Today CDF Collaboration Meeting K.Kondo October 27,2005

  2. Until the First Collision 1977: Met Alvin Tollestrup at ISABELLE Workshop at BNL. 1978: Proposal to KEK to participate pp collider experiment at Fermilab. - W/Z , -Higgs, -SUSY/Technicolor searches,... 1979: Approved/Funded by Japanese goverment. US-Japan treaty on the collaboration in HEP made. 1982: DOE approved Fermilab Collider Project. Basic detector components done by 1984 -CTC, -VTPC, -Solenoid, -EM&HAD Calorimeters, -Muon Counters 1984 Oct.14 First Collision

  3. Asian Collaboratorsin the Run 2 Author List • Korea: Korea Center of HEP Kyungpook , Seoul , SungKyunKwan 12 • Taiwan Academia Sinica 7 • Japan KEK, Hiroshima, Okayama, Osaka City, Tsukuba, Waseda 40 All of us are grateful to be able to work on the World Best Experiment with the World Best Collaboration.

  4. Where CDF stands today ? - TeV4TeV - In the past, important discoveries were made in well established laboratories/accelerators when a new accelerator is just coming along. SAGA of J/psi Discovery - Turning period from BNL/SLAC to FNAL - • Prologue: A vague bump in mu+mu- mass spectum at a BNL fixed target experiment. • J/psi Discovery at BNL/SLAC. • Epilogue: confirmed J/psi at E.S. of SLAC.
