Observation of the Decay $B \to$ F X

The CLEO collaboration Haas, P. ; Hempstead, M. ; Jensen, T. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 56 (1986) 2781, 1986.
Inspire Record 228879 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20235

We present evidence for inclusive F-meson production in B-meson decay. The product branching fraction B(B→FX)B(F+→φπ+) is measured to be 0.0038±0.010. The F momentum spectrum indicates the presence of a large component of two-body final states in the decay B→FX.

In a beam-dump experiment at Fermilab the cross section for charm-particle production has been deduced from a measurement of the prompt neutrino flux. The reaction cross section, if we assume only DD¯ and the dependence on atomic weight A0.75, is 57.2 ± 2.9 ± 8.5 μb/nucleon and the dependence on Feynman x and transverse momentum is EDd3σdpD3∝(1−x)3.2e−1.5p⊥ (p⊥ in GeV/c). The data are consistent with as much as 40% diffractive production of ΛcD¯.

Results are presented of a measurement of the production of D*+ (D*−) in 250-GeV/c π−N interactions. We observe 2.1±7.8 events corresponding to a charge-D* cross section σ(D*) of 0.4±1.5 μb/nucleon. When averaged with our previous measurement made at 200 GeV/c, the result is σ(D*)=2.3±1.0 μb/nucleon with (dσ/dx)‖x=0=4.6±2.0 μb.

Neutral and Charged $D^*$ Production in 360-{GeV}/$c \pi^- p$ Interactions

The first data on the production of D ∗ (2010) are presented as observed in π − -proton interactions at √ s = 27 GeV . It is found that D ∗ (2010) dominates the total charm D-meson production, without a significant non-central component.

Direct Measurements of Charmed d Meson Hadronic Branching Fractions

The MARK-III collaboration Baltrusaitis, R.M. ; Becker, J. ; Blaylock, G. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 56 (1986) 2140, 1986.
Inspire Record 220653 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20248

A new technique is applied to data collected at the ψ(3770) resonance to derive charmed-D-meson branching fractions without relying on the measurement of D-production cross sections. Measurements are presented for three decay modes of the D0 (K−π+, D−π−π+π+, and K−π+π0 and four decay modes of the D+ (K−π+π+,K−π+π+π0,KS0π+, and KS0π+π0). The resulting branching fractions are significantly larger than previous measurements.

Observation of a New Charmed Meson.

The ARGUS collaboration Albrecht, H. ; Binder, U. ; Harder, G. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 56 (1986) 549, 1986.
Inspire Record 222219 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20225

Using the ARGUS detector at the DORIS II e+e− storage ring at DESY, we have obtained evidence for a new charmed resonance which decays into D*±(2010)π∓. The observed mass and width are 2420±6 MeV/c2 and 70±21 MeV/c2, respectively. The fragmentation function is found to be hard, as expected for a state containing a leading charm quark produced by nonresonant e+e− annihilation.

Measurement of $D$ Meson Production in 200-{GeV} $\pi^-$ Be Interactions

Z.Phys.C 30 (1986) 51, 1986.
Inspire Record 221058 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.2112

We have measured the differential and total cross sections ofD meson production in 200 GeV π−-beryllium interactions, using a sample of 48 fully reconstructed and nearly background-freeD mesons in the decay channelsK∓π±,K∓π±π± andK∓π∓π±π±. A single electron trigger has been used to select events containing a pair of charmed particles. A vertex telescope of 6 silison microstrip detectors allowed the reconstruction of tracks of charged secondaries and the reconstruction of primary and decay vertices with high precision. The ratio of branching fractions for\(\mathop {D^0 }\limits^{( - )}\to K^ \mp\pi ^ \pm\) to\(\mathop {D^0 }\limits^{( - )}\to K^ \mp\pi ^ \mp\pi ^ \pm\pi ^ \pm\), and an upper limit for\(D^0- \bar D^0 \) mixing are presented.

CHARGED D* MESON PRODUCTION IN e+ e- ANNIHILATION AT S**(1/2) = 29-GeV

The TPC/Two Gamma collaboration Aihara, H. ; Alston-Garnjost, M. ; Armitage, J.C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 34 (1986) 1945, 1986.
Inspire Record 217416 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23509

The production of charmed D* mesons in e+e− annihilations at a center-of-mass energy of 29 GeV has been studied using the time-projection-chamber (TPC) detector at the SLAC storage ring PEP. The production cross section, fragmentation function, and forward-backward asymmetry due to electroweak effects are measured, and a limit on D0-D¯0 mixing is determined.

Inclusive Properties of d Mesons Produced in 360-GeV pi- p Interactions

The NA27 & LEBC-EHS collaborations Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; Allison, W.W. ; Baland, J.F. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 161 (1985) 400-406, 1985.
Inspire Record 216596 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30352

The inclusive cross sections for forward D meson production at s =26 GeV in π − p interactions have been measured to be: σ(π − p → D 0 / D 0 + X ) x F >0 = (10.1±2.2)μ b , σ(π − p → D ±+ X ) x F >0 = (5.7±1.6)μ b . The distribution in x F for all D and for x F >0 has the form d σ/ d x F =107 −37 +39 (1−x F ) 7.5 −1.7 +2.5 +5.4 −3.8 +6.0 (1−x F ) 0.7 −0.7 1.0 μ b , with evidence for leading D production. The p T 2 distribution is exponential with slope parameter [−1.18 −0.16 +0.18 ]( GeV / c) −2 . The data are compared with predictions from first-order quark/gluon fusion calculations.
