Exclusive hadronic B decays to charm and charmonium final states

Alam, M. et al. (1994) Exclusive hadronic B decays to charm and charmonium final states. Physical Review D, 50(1), pp. 43-68. (doi: 10.1103/PhysRevD.50.43)

Abstract

We have fully reconstructed decays of both B^-0 and B^- mesons into final states containing either D, D*, D**, ψ, ψ’, or χ_c1 mesons. This allows us to obtain new results on many physics topics including branching ratios, tests of the factorization hypothesis, color suppression, resonant substructure, and the B^--B^-0 mass difference.
