Abstract
On March 30, 2010, the first proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of \(\sqrt{s}=7\) TeV happened at the LHC. The data statistics recorded by the CMS detector during the first months of data-taking allows for a first measurement of the inclusive \(b\)-quark production cross-section at the LHC. The preliminary result has been presented at the 35th International Conference on High Energy Physics.
