Description:
  'Measurement of $b$-hadron production cross section using 3.3 pb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, collected during the 2010 LHC run.
   The $b$-hadrons are selected by partially reconstructing $D^{*}\mu^-X$ final states using only direct semileptonic decays of $b$ to $D^{*}\mu^-X$.
   Differential cross sections as functions of $p_\perp$ and $|\eta|$.'
