Improved determination of the sample composition of dimuon events produced in p[overline p] collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV

We use a new method to estimate with 5% accuracy the contribution of pion and kaon in-flight-decays to the dimuon data set acquired with the CDF detector. Based on this improved estimate, we show that the total number and the properties of the collected dimuon events are not yet accounted for by ord...
