Measurement of bb̄ rapidity correlations in pp̄ collisions at √s=1.8 TeV
Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology 61:3 (2000) 1-18
Abstract:
We report the first direct measurement of bb̄ rapidity correlations in pp̄ collisions at √=1.8 TeV. We select events with a high transverse momentum muon accompanied by a jet, and a second jet associated with a decay vertex displaced from the pp̄ interaction vertex. Two independent samples are obtained corresponding to events with a forward (2.0<|η|<2.6) or central (|η|<0.6) muon. We measure the ratio of forward to central bb̄ production to be 0.361±0.033(stat)-0.031+0.015(syst), in good agreement with the next-to-leading order QCD prediction 0.338-0.097+0.014. ©2000 The American Physical Society.Measurement of J/ψ and ψ(2S) polarization in pp collisions at √ s = 1.8 Tev

Abstract:
We have measured the polarization of J/ψ and ψ(2S) mesons produced in pp collisions at √ = 1.8 TeV using data collected at the Collider Detector at Fermilab during 1992–1995. The polarization of promptly produced J/ψ [ψ(2S)] mesons is isolated from those produced in B-hadron decay and measured over the kinematic range 4 [5.5] < PT < 20 GeV/c and |y| < 0.6. For PT ≾ 12 GeV/c we do not observe significant polarization in the prompt component. © 2000 The American Physical Society.Measurement of [formula presented] rapidity correlations in [formula presented] collisions at [formula presented]
