We report on selected recent results from the CDF and D0 experiments on searches for physics beyond the Standard Model using data from the Tevatron collider running $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 1960 GeV.
The status of the Tevatron Collider is reviewed and highlights of the rich physics program carried out by the CDF and D0 experiments are presented.
We report on the first results from the CDF experiment on search for physics beyond the Standard Model using data from the upgraded TeVatron collider running $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 1960 GeV. These first results, although obtained with a total integrated luminosity lower than the total integrated luminosity collected during Run I, are already competitive if not better, due to the increase in the center of mass energy and the improved detector capability.
Next-to-leading order parton fragmentation functions into light mesons are presented. They have been extracted from real and simulated $e^+e^-$ data and used to predict inclusive single particle distributions at different machines.
Inclusive production of light mesons ($π^0$, $η$, $π^{\pm}$, $K^{\pm}$ ) at the Tevatron is considered in QCD to next-to-leading order in the formalism of fragmentation functions. We present various distributions of phenomenological interest, along with a new set of $K$ mesons fragmentation functions.
