Measurement of Correlated b quark Cross Sections at CDF

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Using data collected during the 1992-1993 collider run at Fermilab, CDF has made measurements of correlated bb quark cross sections where one bb is detected from the lepton from semileptonic decay and the second bb is detected with secondary vertex techniques. We report on measurements of the cross section as a function of the momentum of the second bb and as a function of the azimuthal separation of the two bb quarks, for transverse momentum of the initial bb quark greater than 15 GeV. The vertex reconstruction techniques are valid over a large range in transverse momentum, starting at a minimum of 10 GeV. Results are compared to QCD predictions.
