abstract
A measurement of the inclusive bottom jet cross section is presented for events containing a Z boson in pp collisions at s=1.96TeV using the Collider Detector at Fermilab. Z bosons are identified in their electron and muon decay modes, and b jets with ET>20GeV and ||<1.5 are identified by reconstructing a secondary decay vertex. The measurement is based on an integrated luminosity of about 330pb-1. A cross section times branching ratio of (Z+bjets)B(Z+-)=0.930.36pb is found, where B(Z+-) is the branching ratio of the Z boson or * into a single flavor dilepton pair (e or ) in the mass range between 66 and 116GeV/c2. The ratio of b jets to the total number of jets of any flavor in the Z sample, within the same kinematic range as the b jets, is 2.360.92%. Here, the uncertainties are the quadratic sum of statistical and systematic uncertainties. Predictions made with next-to-leading order QCD agree, within experimental and theoretical uncertainties, with these measurements. 2006 The American Physical Society.
