Abstract

The cross section for the reaction ρ¯ N→μ+μ-X with muon pairs in the mass range 4< M< 9 GeV/c2 and xF> 0 was measured to be σ=0.104± 0.005± 0.008 nb/nucleon. The distributions dσ /dxF and M3dσ/dM were compared to the QCD-improved Drell-Yan model and to calculations including first-order QCD corrections, with use of deep-inelastic structure functions. Excellent agreement with the data was obtained if the calculations were multiplied by factors of 2.45 and 1.41, respectively.
