First measurement of the b-Jet cross section in events with a W boson in pp[over-bar] collisions at [sqrt]s=1.96TeV

First measurement of the b-Jet cross section in events with a W boson in pp[over-bar] collisions at [sqrt]s=1.96TeV

The cross section for jets from b quarks produced with a W boson has been measured in pp[over-bar] collision data from 1.9  fb[superscript -1] of integrated luminosity recorded by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron. The W+b-jets process poses a significant background in measurements of top quark pr...
