Abstract
This letter describes a measurement of the muon cross section originating from b-quark decay in the forward rapidity range 2.4<|yμ|<3.2 in pp̅ collisions at √s=1.8TeV. The data used in this analysis were collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. We find that next-to-leading-order QCD calculations underestimate b-quark production by a factor of 4 in the forward rapidity region.
