Absolute cross sections as functions of kinematic variables are presented for the production of muon pairs from 800 GeV proton bombardment of 2H. Drell-Yan (continuum) dimuons were recorded in the mass regions 4.5≤Mμ+μ-≤9 GeV and Mμ+μ-≥11 GeV, with an x-Feynman range -0.1≤xF≤0.75. This range corresponds to smaller masses and larger values of xF than previous 800 GeV Drell-Yan data. Cross sections for the Υ(1S) resonance are also given versus the transverse momentum and xF.
