Abstract
For the past several years, the CDF collaboration has been upgrading its de tector to accommodate the higher Luminosity and beam energy expected during Run II (2001-2006) at the Tevatron p (p) over bar collider. Accelerator im provements include increasing the instantaneous luminosity by an order of m agnitude with respect to Run I to 2 x 10(32) cm(-2) s(-1) and increasing th e center of mass energy from 1.8 to 2.0 TeV. The detector upgrades include replacing the entire tracking volume, extending the muon coverage, adding a time-of-flight system, and improving the selection capabilities of the tri gger. The partially instrumented detector underwent a commissioning run dur ing September/October 2000 in preparation for starting data taking in Sprin g 2001 with the full detector. Now that Run II has been extended through 20 06. we expect to collect an integrated luminosity of 2 fb(-1) during the fi rst two years of running and up to a total of 15 fb(-1) by the end of Run I I.
