Measurement of the cross-section for b-jets produced in association with a Z boson at s=7 TeV with the ATLAS detector

A measurement is presented of the inclusive cross-section for b-jet production in association with a Z boson in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s=7 TeV. The analysis uses the data sample collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2010, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately...
