The cross section for the reaction p-barN..--> mu../sup +/..mu../sup -/X with muon pairs in the mass range 40 was measured to be sigma = 0.104 +- 0.005 +- 0.008 nb/nucleon. The distributions dsigma/dx/sub F/ and M/sup 3/dsigma/dM were compared to the QCD-improved Drell-Yan model and to calculations including first-order QCD corrections using 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.
