B Hadron Spectroscopy and Lifetimes - results from the Tevatron

Description

The Tevatron is an ideal place to study the physics of B hadrons. The production cross-section is much higher than at the B factories and higher mass states such as B baryons and the Bs and Bc mesons are produced. The Tevatron has delivered an integrated luminosity of over 7 fb-1 and continues to run with improved performance. In this paper I review recent results from Cdf and D0 on the spectroscopy of B baryons, excited B mesons, charmonium-like states, and the lifetime of the Λb baryon.
