摘要：

We have measured gluon splitting into bottom quarks, g --> b (b) over bar, in hadronic Z(0) decays collected by SLD between 1996 and 1998. The analysis was performed by looking for secondary bottom production in 4-jet events of any primary flavor. 4-jet events were identified. and in each event a topological vertex-mass technique was applied to the two jets closest in angle in order to identify them as b or b;jets. The upgraded CCD-based vertex detector gives very high B-tagging efficiency, especially for B hadrons with the low energies typical of this process. We measured the rate of g --> b (b) over bar production per hadronic event, g(b (b) over bar), to be (2.44 +/- 0.59(stat.) +/- 0.34(syst.)) x 10(-3). (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
