Abstract
We present predictions for the inclusive production of bottom jets in proton–antiproton collisions at 1.96 TeV and proton–proton collisions at 7 TeV. The bottom quark is considered massless. In this scheme, we find that at small transverse momentum [Formula: see text] the ratio of the next-to-leading order to the leading-order cross-section ([Formula: see text] factor) is smaller than one. It increases with increasing [Formula: see text] and approaches one at larger [Formula: see text] at a value depending essentially on the choice of the renormalization scale. Adding nonperturbative corrections obtained from PYTHIA Monte Carlo calculations leads to reasonable agreement with experimental [Formula: see text]-jet cross-sections obtained by the CDF and the CMS collaborations.
