Cross Section of $b\bar{b}$ Production in p+p Collisions at $\sqrt{s}$=500 GeV Using Like-Sign Dimuons at PHENIX
Lepton pairs resulting from the decay of heavy flavor mesons are an important tool to probe the hot and dense matter created in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. Due to their large mass, heavy quarks are produced in the earliest stages of the collision and will, there...
