We report a measurement of the inclusive muon and {ital b}-quark production cross sections in {ital p{bar p}} collisions at {radical}{ital s}=1.8 TeV using the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The inclusive muon spectrum extends over the kinematic range {vert_bar}{ital y}{sup {mu}}{vert_bar}{lt}0.8 and 3.5{lt}{ital p}{sub {ital T}}{sup {mu}}{lt}60GeV/{ital c}, and is well described by the expected contributions from various known sources. The {ital b}-quark production cross section for {vert_bar}{ital y}{sup {ital b}}{vert_bar}{lt}1.0 and {ital p}{sup {ital b}}{sub {ital T}}{gt}6GeV/{ital c} is extracted, and agrees with next-to-leading order QCD predictions within the experimental and theoretical uncertainties.
