Abstract

With the full Tevatron data set collected and being analyzed, many new results have been recently released. This includes heavy flavor physics studies such as CP violation parameter measurements with B^{+/-} -> J/\psi K^{+/-} and B^{+/-} -> J/\psi pi^{+/-} and $D^0-D^0bar mixing. Of the QCD and electroweak results, photon plus heavy flavor measurements and a search for anomalous quartic gauge couplings will be reviewed. These various studies help to clarify the agreement between data and physics models and to search for new physics.
