b-quark inclusive cross sections and b(bar b) correlations using dimuons from the D0 experiment

摘要

Using dimuons collected with the D(null) detector during the 1993- 1995 Tevatron collider run, we have measured the (ital b)-quark cross section and (ital b(anti b)) correlations as given by the difference in azimuthal angle between the two muons. Both measurements agree with the NLO QCD predictions within experimental and theoretical errors.
