Measurement of the D(s)+ lifetime.

چکیده
A high statistics measurement of the D(s)+ lifetime from the Fermilab fixed-target FOCUS photoproduction experiment is presented. We describe the analysis of the two decay modes, D(s)+ --> phi(1020)pi+ and D(s)+ -->K*(892)0K+, used for the measurement. The measured lifetime is 507.4 +/- 5.5(stat) +/- 5.1(syst) fs using 8961 +/- 105 D(s)+ --> phi(1020)pi+ and 4680 +/- 90 D(s)+ --> K*(892)0K+ decays. This is a significant improvement over the present world average.

متن کامل1 Measurement of the D ± s lifetime ( SELEX Collaboration )
We report a precise measurement of the D s meson lifetime. The data were taken by the SELEX experiment (E781) spectrometer using 600 GeV/c Σ, π and p beams. The measurement has been done using 918 reconstructed D s . The lifetime of the D s is measured to be 472.5±17.2±6.6 fs, using K (892)K and φπ decay modes. The lifetime ratio of D s to D 0 is 1.145 ± 0.049.

The parallel systems are special important types of coherent structures and have many applications in various areas.In this paper we consider a two-exchangeable-component parallel system for the Generalized Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (Generalized FGM) distribution. We study the reliability properties of the residual lifetime of the system under the condition that both components of the system ar...

We estimate ∆Γ d /Γ d , including 1/m b contributions and part of the next-to-leading order QCD corrections, and find it to be around 0.3%. We show the methods to measure ∆Γ d /Γ d by using at least two different final states on the untagged B d decay. The nonzero width difference can also be used to identify new physics effects and to resolve a twofold discrete ambiguity in the B d − ¯ B d mix...
