Abstract:

Using a 13.7 fb-1 sample of continuum two-jet e +e- → qqÌ„ events collected with the CLEO detector, we have searched for correlations between Âì and ÂìÌ„ particles, specifically in cases where the opening angle between the two particles is large and each has momentum > 1 GeV/c. Such correlations may indicate the presence of baryon number conservation at the primary quark level. A previous CLEO study of ÂìcÂìc correlations indicated direct, associated production of primary charmed baryons Âìc: e+e- → ccÌ„ → ÂìcÂìÌ„c. That effect was not observed in Monte Carlo simulations. Our current search for similar direct, associated production of Âì baryons at the primary quark level (e+e - → ssÌ„ → ÂìÂìÌ„, e.g.) qualitatively indicates a similar effect, although it relies on a Monte Carlo dependent subtraction of background ÂìÂìÌ„ production (based on the default JETSET 7.4 event generator). © 2002 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We report on the observation of B̄0→D* 0π+π+π- π-decays. The branching ratio is (0.30±0.07 ±0.06)%. Interest in this particular mode was sparked by Ligeti, Luke and Wise who propose it as a way to check the validity of factorization tests in B̄0→D*+π+π -π-π0 decays. © 2001 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We present new measurements of branching fractions for the color-favored decays B+ → D0π- and B̄0 → D+π-. Using 9.67×106 BB̄ pairs collected with the CLEO detector, we obtain the branching fractions Β(B- → D0π - = (49.7±1.2±2.9±2.2)×104 and Β(B̄0 → D+π-) = (26.8±1.2±2.4±1.2)×10-4. The first error is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is due to the experimental uncertainty on the production ratio of charged and neutral B mesons in Y(4S) decays. These results, together with the current world average for the color-suppressed branching fraction Β(B̄+ → D 0π0), are used to determine the cosine of the strong phase difference δI between the I = 1/2 and I=3/2 isospin amplitudes. We find cos δI = 0.863 -0.023-0.035-0.030+0.024+0.036+0.038, and obtain a 90% confidence interval of 16.5° < δI < 38.1°. This nonzero value of δI suggests the presence of final state interactions in the D π system. © 2002 The American Physical Society.
