Abstract: In this paper we discuss the transverse momentum QT. spectra and the dependenceof 〈PT〉〈QT2〉 on Q2 of the μ pair for massive μμ production at high energy proton-nucleoncollisions. It is shown that if we combine the contributions of the subprocesses ofvalence-valence quark hard scattering with the 0(as) QCD calculations and assume theinitial parton intrinsic transverse momentum
0.3 GeV/c, then the calculatedresults get a better fit to these experimental data when we use the parton distributionfunctions from deep inelastic scattering on nucleons.
