چکیده

We have used a high-resolution drift chamber in the Mark II Detector at PEP 5 to metiure the lifetimes of Do and D+ mesons produced in e+eannihilations at 29 GeV. Based on a sample of74 decays for the Do mesons and 23 decays for the D+ mesons, the lifetimes are found to be 4.7fi:i f 0.5 x lo-l3 set and 8 9f3*8 . 2., f 1.3 x lo-l3 set, respectively. This leads to a ratio of lifetimes of 1.9”;.“, f 0.3.

D0-D0 Mixing at BABAR

measure the rate of mixing with the observable yCP = (τKπ/τKK)− 1, where τKK and τKπ are respectively the mean lifetimes of CP-even D0 → K+K− and CP-mixed D0 → K−π+ decays. A new BABAR measurement of the mixing parameter yCP is presented for the first time in this conference. This new result is in good agreement with a previous BABAR measurement, obtained from a sample of D∗+ → D0π+ events, whe...

6 v 1 1 0 N ov 1 99 8 Measurement of the D s Lifetime

We report the results of a precise measurement of the Ds meson lifetime based on 1662± 56 fully reconstructed Ds → φπ decays, from the charm hadroproduction experiment E791 at Fermilab. Using an unbinned maximum likelihood fit, we measure the Ds lifetime to be 0.518 ± 0.014 ± 0.007 ps. The ratio of the measured Ds lifetime to the world average D0 lifetime [1] is 1.25 ± 0.04. This result differs...

Recent Lifetime and Mixing Measurements at the Tevatron

We present the latest B hadron lifetimes, B s mixing, and D 0 mixing measurements using up to 3.0 fb of data collected by CDF and D0 experiments at Fermilab. The B s lifetime is measured from both J/ψφ (CP admixture) and flavor specific channels, and the Bc lifetime is obtained from semileptonic channels. Following the B s oscillation frequency measurement at CDF in 2006, the D0 collaboration n...

Measurement of the D0, D+, and Ds+ meson lifetimes.

We report measurements of the lifetimes of the D, D+, and D,+ (F+) mesons produced in e+e collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 29 GeV. The decay vertex distribution in the processes D ~K rr+, D+~E n+n+, and . D+~Prr+ were made using a vertex chamber installed in the High Resolution Spectrometer at the SLAC storage ring PEP. The measured lifetimes are ~ 0=(4.4+1.0%0.6)X10 ' s, w +=(9.2+,'3+1...

Improved measurement of the B − and B 0 meson lifetimes using semileptonic decays ∗

The lifetimes of the B and B0 mesons are measured using the partially reconstructed semileptonic decays B → DlνX, where D is either a D0 or D∗+ meson. The data were collected by the CDF detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider during 1992-1995 and correspond to about 110 pb−1 of p̄p collisions at √ s = 1.8 TeV. We measure decay lengths and extract the lifetimes to be τ(B) = 1.637 ± 0.058 0.045...
