Kaons in flavour taggedB decays

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

Using the ARGUS detector at thee + e − storage ring DORIS II, flavour-dependent kaon production inB meson decays has been studied. Using the leptons as flavour tags, it has been possible to separately measure the multiplicities ofK +,K − andK 0 s in inclusiveB decays and in semileptonicB decays. The kaon production in semileptonicB decays was further used to estimate the ratio of charmed decays over all decays, and thus also the fraction of charmlessB decays.
