摘要: Measurements of the ratio Drell-Yan yields from an $800 \mathrm{GeV}/c$ proton beam incident on liquid hydrogen and deuterium targets are reported. Approximately 360 000 muon pairs remained after all cuts data. From these data, down antiquark $(\overline{d})$ to up $(\ifmmode \bar{u}\else \={u}\fi{})$ distributions in sea is determined over a wide range Bjorken-$x.$ These results confirm previous measurements by E866 extend them lower x. $(\overline{d}\ensuremath{-}\ifmmode $\ensuremath{\int}(\overline{d}\ensuremath{-}\ifmmode \={u}\fi{})dx$ evaluated for $0.015lxl0.35.$ compared with parametrizations various parton distribution functions, models experimental NA51, NMC HERMES.
