چکیده

The ratio of the B+ and B0 meson lifetimes was measured using data collected in 2002-2004 by the D0 experiment in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. These mesons were reconstructed in B-->mu(+)nuD(*-)X decays, which are dominated by B0 and B-->mu(+)nuD 0X decays, which are dominated by B+. The ratio of lifetimes is measured to be tau(+)/tau(0)=1.080+/-0.016(stat)+/-0.014(syst).

Theory of Beauty Lifetimes

A critical review of the theoretical understanding of the lifetimes of beauty hadrons is given. A model-independent analysis using the heavy-quark expansion allows for a description of the lifetime ratios τ(B−)/τ(B0) and τ(Λb)/τ(B 0) in a small region of parameter space. It is demonstrated that the lifetime ratio τ(B−)/τ(B0) cannot be used to extract the decay constant of the B meson. Implicati...

Improved measurement of the B − and B 0 meson lifetimes using semileptonic decays ∗

The lifetimes of the B and B0 mesons are measured using the partially reconstructed semileptonic decays B → DlνX, where D is either a D0 or D∗+ meson. The data were collected by the CDF detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider during 1992-1995 and correspond to about 110 pb−1 of p̄p collisions at √ s = 1.8 TeV. We measure decay lengths and extract the lifetimes to be τ(B) = 1.637 ± 0.058 0.045...

Effects of final state interaction in B^+_c to D^0 K^+ decay

In this paper, the decay of Bc+ meson, which consists of two b and c heavy quarks, into the Do and K+  mesons was studied. Given that the experimental branching ratio for this decay was within the range of 3.75*10-5 to 11.16*10-5; it was decided to calculate the theoretical branching ratio by applying the final state interaction (FSI) through the T and cross-section channels. In this process, b...

Meson B fragmentation function with consideration of mass corrections

Study of B meson (meson with the bottom quark flavor) in Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is of special importance so that the detector LHCb is devoted to investigate these types of mesons. For this reason, in this paper we will study the production process of this meson in a phenomenological approach using the experimental data from electron-positron annihilation. In this regards, we shall calculat...

Measurements of CP violation, mixing and lifetimes in B meson decays with the BABAR experiment at PEP-II

The BABAR detector, which operates at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric e+e− collider at energies near the Υ (4S) resonance has collected about 23M BB pairs in year 2000. Based on this data sample, we present a first study of sin2β, with samples of B0 → J/ψK0 S , B0 → ψ(2S)K0 S and B0 → J/ψK0 L decays. The measured value is sin2β = 0.34±0.20 (stat)±0.05 (syst). In addition, we present preliminary meas...

Physics at BABAR

The BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric e+e− collider has first started collecting data in May 1999. A study of time-dependent CP -violating asymmetries in B0 → J/ψK0 S and B0 → ψ(2S)K0 S decays has been performed on a data sample of 9.0 fb taken at the Υ (4S) resonance and 0.8 fb off-resonance, collected through July 2000. The preliminary result sin2β = 0.12 ± 0.37 (stat) ± 0.09 (syst...
