B<sup>0</sup>B<sup>0</sup> mixing, and a limit on <inf>B</inf> in pp collisions at s=1.8 TeV Measurement of bb production correlations

We present measurements of correlated bb cross sections, -, correlations, the average B0B0 mixing parameter , and a limit on the CP-violating parameter B. For these measurements, we use muon pairs from bb double semileptonic decays. The data used in this analysis were taken with the Collider_Detector at Fermilab and represent an integrated luminosity of 17.40.6 pb-1. The results concerning bb production correlations are compared to predictions of next-to-leading order QCD computations.
