Description
The cross section for b bar b production in 800 GeV/c pN interactions has been measured in Fermilab experiment E771 to be 43+27-17(stat)+7-7(syst) nb per nucleon from the observation of events in which both the b and the bar b decay semimuonically or a B decays into a J/ψ followed by J/ψ→μ+μ- . copyright 1998 The American Physical Society
