Abstract

We report on the production characteristics and total cross section for 9 beauty hadron pairs produced by a 600 GeV/c π^- beam, the first such information in this energy region. The events were detected in the hybrid emulsion spectrometer of Fermilab Experiment E653. The measured pair cross section for all χ_F, assuming linear A dependence, is 33±11 (stat.)±6(syst.) nb/nucleon. Fits of the inclusive single-hadron production distribution to the forms dσ dχ_F ∝ (1-|χ_F-χ₀|)ⁿ and dσ dp_T² ∝ exp(-bp_t²) give n=5.0_-2.1-1.7^+2.7+1.7, χ₀=0.06_-0.07-0.03^+0.06+0.02, and b=0.13_-0.04-0.02^+0.05+0.02 (GeV/c^-2. .The pairs tend to be produced back-to-back.
