Abstract: In this paper we prove that the complement to the affine complex arrangement of type widetilde{B}_n is a K(pi, 1) space. We also compute the cohomology of the affine Artin group G of type widetilde{B}_n with coefficients over several interesting local systems. In particular, we consider the module Q[q^{pm 1}, t^{pm 1}], where the first n-standard generators of G act by (-q)-multiplication while the last generator acts by (-t)-multiplication. Such representation generalizes the analog 1-parameter representation related to the bundle structure over the complement to the discriminant hypersurface, endowed with the monodromy action of the associated Milnor fibre. The cohomology of G with trivial coefficients is derived from the previous one.
