“…The consideration was based on the O(αα 2 s ) amplitude for the gluon fusion subprocess g * g * → γQQ. A reasonably good agreement between the numerical predictions and the Tevatron data [2,3] was obtained in the region of relatively low p γ T where the off-shell gluon fusion dominates. However, the quark-induced subprocesses become more important at moderate and large p γ and therefore should be taken into account.…”

“…6 the results of the calculation for associated production of the prompt photon and the muon originated from the semileptonic decays of charm or beauty quarks is presented. The experimental data are from CDF [3]. To produce muons from charmed and beauty quarks, we first convert them into D or B hadrons using the Peterson fragmentation function [15] and then simulate…”

“…Although the measured B-meson differential cross section has been observed to have a shape in agreement with theoretical predictions, the absolute rate was near the limits of that predicted by typical variations in the theoretical parameters [92]. An estimate of the acceptance uncertainty due to the calculated b-quark momentum spectrum was taken by varying the default Monte Carlo generation parameters detailed in Section 4.1 from their nominal values.…”

Bound states of heavy quarks can serve as a laboratory for inquiry into the behaviour of the fundamental strong and electroweak interactions. This thesis examines observations of B 0 , B 0 , and B ± mesons produced in proton-antiproton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of √ s = 1.8 TeV. The B-meson decay products are recorded using the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) located on the Tevatron collider at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois, USA.Four B-meson decays and their charge conjugates are studied: The indicated uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. In ratios involving unlike B-meson species, equal production rates for B + and B 0 mesons have been assumed.Absolute branching fractions are extracted by normalizing the above ratio measurements to the world-average value, B(B + → J/ψ K + ) = (1.01 ± 0.14) × 10 −3 :
