The main fields of interest of the experiment are the study of charm and beauty production in pA interactions at √s = 41.6 GeV. During the data taking period 2002/3, huge samples of high quality data were recorded with different target nuclei (C, Ti, W). The Hera-B detector 2002/3 data taking: • High rate forward spectrometer (10 MHz interaction rate) • Angular coverage: 15 - 220 mrad in bending plane, • 15 - 160 mrad in vertical plane • Designed for high interaction rates • Particle identification (e, m, p, K, p) • Hardware track-trigger for lepton pairs (ee, mm) • Multiple trigger levels: electron and muon pretriggers, hardware first level trigger, software second level trigger. • On-line event reconstruction with PC-farm • Interaction of 920 GeV/c protons with nuclei of target wires (C, Ti, W) • Running time ~480 h • Minimum bias events ~210 Mio • Dilepton trigger evens ~150 Mio • “Glueball” trigger events ~60 Mio • Hard photon trigger events ~10 Mio • Peak DAQ rate (MinBias) ~1kHz • J/ rate (events/time) ~1000/hour Open charm in minimum bias data J/ cross section in minimum bias data J/  + - 100  12 J/  e+ e- 57  13 PHYS. LETT. B 638, 407 (2006) Test of universality of non-perturbative matrix elements of quarkonia • Fit the existing experimental data using function based on NRQCD calculations at NLO • Scale parameter: 0 = 2mc with mc = 1.5 GeV 0 = F(factorization)= R(renormalization) • PDF sets: MRST2002nlo and CTEQ6m • Color-singlet matrix elements from potential model calculations • Color-octet matrix elements extracted from CDF data • Introduce free scaling parameters for S-wave matrix elements J/ and (2S) = fraction of color-octet contribution required relative to CDF results F. Maltoni et al. PHYS. LETT. B 638, 202 (2006) Conclusions 0.01 < J/ < 0.31 and 0.02 < (2S) < 0.14 Required color-octet contribution about 10% of that for Tevatron data. Supports HERA ep data which do not need large octet contributions. c J/  production J/ production in pA collisions Mass difference M=M(l+ l- ) - M(l+ l- ) Reconstructed mass spectra <pT> grows logarithmically with A: <pT> grows with s: <pT>  0.8 + 0.01·s A-dependence Differential distributions in xF and pT  = 0.969 ± 0.003stat± 0.021sys Cronin effect R(c)  production (2S) production Open beauty production (2S) / J/ ratio Mass spectra after detachment cuts Fit: A· ((1S) + (2S) + (3S)) + B· Drell-Yan + combinatorial (1S):(2S):(3S) fixed to E605 From MC From like-sign pairs improvement of B‘(): R = 0.032  0.005stat  0.004sys better than current PDG value PHYS.
