Measuring B Hadron Correlations at CDF

Dr. Kevin Lannon (University of Illinois)

Abstract

Consistent difficulties obtaining satisfactory agreement between measurements and predictions for the b quark cross section at the Tevatron have led to ongoing interest in other aspects of b quark production. This talk will present a recent preliminary measurement of B hadron correlations and discuss the relationship of this measurement and others like it to the more general problem of understanding the discrepancies in b quark production.
