Measurements of the Differential Cross Sections for the Inclusive Production of a Photon and Heavy Flavor Jet
- Florida State Univ., Tallahassee, FL (United States)
This thesis presents the first measurement of the differential production cross section of a heavy flavor (bottom or charm) jet and direct photon at the Fermilab Tevatron. These measurements were performed using data recorded with the D0 detector from proton-antiproton collisions at a center of mass energy of √s = 1.96 TeV. These results probe a kinematic range for the photon transverse momentum of 30 < pTγ < 150 GeV and rapidity of |yγ| < 1.0 and for jet transverse momentum pTjet > 15 GeV and rapidity of |yjet| < 0.8. These results are compared to next-to-leading-order theoretical calculations.
