B meson decays to open charm and charmonium at BaBar

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Since it began recording data in 1999, the BaBar detector at the SLAC B Factory has collected nearly 90 million B meson pairs. Using this sample, we are able to make precise measurements of B decays to open charm and charmonium. In particular, we have measured the rates for B → DD̄K, for the color-suppressed modes B⁰ → D⁰π⁰, B⁰ → D⁰η, and B⁰ → D ⁰ω, for B⁺ → χ_c ⁰K⁺, and for B⁰ → D_s ^(*)+ D^*-. We have also begun preparations for a measurement of the CKM angle γ by studying the modes B⁺ → D⁰K⁺, B⁰ → D_s ^(*)+π^-, and B⁰ → D _s^(*)+K^-.
