Heavy Flavour Cross Section Measurements with the ATLAS Detector

AbstractATLAS measurements of heavy flavour production cross sections are presented from proton-proton collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. These make use of b-hadron decays to D⁎μX, inclusive charm meson production, inclusive electron and muon production from semileptonic heavy flavour decays, and reconstruction of secondary decay vertices to tag b-jets. The results are compared with next-to-leading-order QCD calculations
