W{sup ±} + b{bar b} events contain the associated production of a W{sup ±} boson, a pair of bottom quarks (b{bar b}), and any number of additional partons. This process is of much importance at hadron collider experiments due to its role as a background source in searches for Standard Model Higgs boson and single top-quark production. In this thesis the results are presented for a measurement of the b-jet cross-section in W{sup ±} + b{bar b} events containing 1 or 2 jets in 695 pb−1 of √s =1.96 TeV p{bar p} collisions at the CDF experiment. This is the first measurement of the cross-section of W{sup {+-}} b{bar b} performed in any experiment. The cross-section is defined to be proportional to the number of b-jets from W{sup {+-}} b{bar b} events with one or two jets, and a leptonically decaying W{sup {+-}} with decay products passing kinematics cuts (p{sub T}(l{sup {+-}}) ≥ 20.0 GeV,

The authors present a new measurement of the inclusive and differential production cross sections of J/[psi] mesons and b-hadrons in proton-antiproton collisions at √s = 1960 GeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 39.7 pb−1 collected by the CDF Run II detector. They find the integrated cross section for inclusive J/[psi] production for all transverse momenta from 0 to 20 GeV/c in the rapidity range

The authors present a measurement of the t{bar t} production cross section using events with one charged lepton and jets from p{bar p} collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. A b-tagging algorithm based on the probability of displaced tracks coming from the event interaction vertex is applied to identify b quarks from top decay. Using 318 pb−1 of data collected with the CDF II detector, they measure the t{bar t} production cross section in events with at least one restrictive (tight) b-tagged jet and obtain 8.9{sub -1.0}{sup +1.0}(stat.){sub -1.0}{sup +1.1}(syst.) pb. The cross section value assumes a top quark mass of m{sub t} is presented in the paper. This result is consistent with other CDF measurements of the t{bar t} cross section using different samples and analysis techniques, and has similar systematic uncertainties. They have also performed consistency checks by using the b-tagging probability function to vary the signal to background ratio and also using events that have at least two b-tagged jets.

The Run II physics program at the Tevatron started in the spring of 2001 with protons and antiprotons colliding at an energy of {radical}s = 1.96 TeV, and is continuing with about 1.2 fb{sup -1} of data currently collected by the CDF and D0 experiments. A measurement of the b-jet cross section as function of jet transverse momentum p{perpendicular} has been performed using 312 pb{sup -1} of D0 data. The results for this measurement were obtained and are presented herein. A neural network algorithm was used to identify b jets.

The authors present a new measurement of the B meson differential cross section d?/dP{sub T} at √s = 1960 GeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 739 pb−1 collected with the upgraded CDF detector (CDF II) at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. B+ candidates are reconstructed through the decay B+ → J/? K+, with J/? →?+?−. The integrated cross section for producing B+ mesons with p{sub T} ≥ 6 GeV/c and.

This paper presents a direct measurement of the differential[ital B][sup+] and[ital B][sup 0] cross sections, [ital d[sigma]/dp[sub T]] in[ital p][ital[anti p]] collisions at[radical]s= 1.8 TeV using a sample of 74[ital pb][sup -1] accumulated by the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). The cross sections are measured in the central pseudorapidity region[vert-bar][eta][vert-bar][lt] 1 for[ital p[sub T]]([ital B])[gt] 6.0 GeV/c by fully reconstructing the[ital B] meson decays[ital B][sup+][r-arrow][ital J/[psi]K[sup+]] and[ital B][sup 0][r-arrow][ital J/[psi]K[sup*0]](892), where[ital J/[psi]][r-arrow][mu][sup+][mu][sup -] and[ital K][sup*0][r-arrow][ital K][sup+][pi][sup -]. The prediction of next-to- leading order QCD is consistent with the shape of the differential cross section but is low by a factor of 2.1[+-]0.2[+-]0.3. The integrated[ital B] meson cross section for[ital p[sub T]]([ital B])[gt] 6.0 GeV/c is determined to be[sigma]([ital B][sup -]= 3. 54[+-]0.22[+-]0.53[mu][ital b].

A measurement of the b jet production cross section is presented for events containing a Z boson produced in p{bar p} collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 fb−1 collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron. Z bosons are selected in the electron and muon decay modes. Jets are considered with transverse energy E{sub T} > 20 GeV and pseudorapidity.
