The W + b-jets process poses a significant background in measurements of top quark production and prominent searches for the Higgs boson. We measure a b-jet cross section of 2.74 + 0.27(stat) +/- 0.42(syst) pb in association with a single flavor of leptonic W boson decay over a limited kinematic phase space. This measured result cannot be accommodated in several available theoretical predictions.", optnote="ISI:000276260800005", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=291), last updated on Mon, 21 Feb 2011 12:25:06 +0000", issn="0031-9007", doi="10.1103/PhysRevLett.104.131801", opturl="http://arXiv.org/abs/0909.1505", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.104.131801", language="English" }
