A measurement of the shapes of $b$-jets using 300 pb$^{-1}$ of data obtained with CDF II in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV. The measured quantity is the average integrated jet shape, which is computed over an ensemble of jets. This quantity is expressed as $\Psi(r/R) = \langle\frac{p_\perp(0 \rightarrow r)}{p_\perp(0 \rightarrow R)}\rangle$, where $p_\perp(0 \rightarrow r)$ is the scalar sum of the transverse momenta of all objects inside a sub-cone of radius $r$ around the jet axis. The integrated shapes are by definition normalized such that $\Psi(r/R =1) = 1$. The measurement is done in bins of jet pT in the range 52 to 300\;GeV/$c$. The jets have $|\eta| < 0.7$. The $b$-jets are expected to be broader than inclusive jets. Moreover, $b$-jets containing a single $b$-quark are expected to be narrower than those containing a $b \bar{b}$ pair from gluon splitting.
