Abstract

The differential cross sections for inclusive production of B⁺ hadrons are measured as a function of the B⁺transverse momentum p^B_Tand rapidity y^Bin pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13TeV, using data collected by the CMS experiment that correspond to an integrated luminosity of 48.1pb⁻¹. The measurement uses the exclusive decay channel B⁺→J/ψK⁺, with J/ψ mesons that decay to a pair of muons. The results show a reasonable agreement with theoretical calculations within the uncertainties.
