Absolute branching fraction measurements for D+ and D0 inclusive semileptonic decays.

چکیده
We present measurements of the inclusive branching fractions for the decays D+-->Xe+ nu(e) and D0-->Xe+ nu(e), using 281 pb(-1) of data collected on the psi(3770) resonance with the CLEO-c detector. We find B(D0-->Xe+ nu(e)) = (6.46+/-0.17+/-0.13)% and B(D+-->Xe+ nu(e)) = (16.13+/-0.20+/-0.33)%. Using the known D meson lifetimes, we obtain the ratio Gamma(D+)sl/Gamma(D0)sl = 0.985+/-0.028+/-0.015, confirming isospin invariance at the level of 3%. The positron momentum spectra from D+ and D0 have consistent shapes.

With the first data sample collected by the CLEO-c detector at the psi(3770) resonance we have studied four exclusive semileptonic decays of the D0 meson. Our results include the first observation and absolute branching fraction measurement for D0 --> p-e+ve and improved measurements of the absolute branching fractions for D0 decays to K-e+ve, pi-e+ve, and K*-e+ve.
متن کاملHadronic Decays of B Mesons
We review recent experimental results on hadronic decays and lifetimes of hadrons containing b and c quarks[1]. We discuss charm counting and the semileptonic branching fraction in B decays, the color suppressed amplitude in B decay, and the search for gluonic penguins in B decay. A complete picture of inclusive B decay is beginning to emerge from recent measurements by CLEO II and the LEP expe...
