    We report the observation of the decay B(-) -> D(s)(()*()+)K(-)l(-)(nu) over bar (l) based on 342 fb(-1) of data collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e(+)e(-) storage rings at SLAC. A simultaneous fit to three D(s)(+) decay chains is performed to extract the signal yield from measurements of the squared missing mass in the B meson decay. We observe the decay B(-) -> D(s)(()*()+)K(-)l(-)(nu) over bar (l) with a significance greater than 5 standard deviations (including systematic uncertainties) and measure its branching fraction to be B(B(-) -> D(s)(()*())K(-)l(-)(nu) over bar (l) = [6.13(-1.03)(+1.04)(stat) +/- 0.43(syst) +/- 0.51 (B(D(s)))] X 10(-4), where the last error reflects the limited knowledge of the D(s) branching fractions

    INCLUSIVE JET CROSS-SECTION IN PBARP COLLISIONS AT SQUARE-ROOT-S = 1.8 TEV

    No full text
    We present a measurement of the inclusive jet cross section in ppBAR collisions at square-root s = 1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron using the Collider Detector at Fermilab. Good agreement is seen with the predictions of recent next-to-leading-order [O(alpha(s)3)] QCD predictions. The dependence of the cross section on clustering cone size is reported for the first time. An improved limit on LAMBDA(c), a term characterizing possible quark substructure, is set at 1.4 TeV (95% C.L.)

    MEASUREMENT OF JET SHAPES IN (P)OVER-BAR-P COLLISIONS AT ROOT-S = 1.8 TEV

    No full text
    We present a measurement of jet shapes in ppBAR collisions at square-root s = 1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron using the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). Qualitative agreement is seen with the predictions of recent next-to-leading [O(alpha(s)3)] calculations and with leading logarithm QCD based Monte Carlo simulations. The dependence of the jet shape on transverse energy is studied

    Measurement of the mass difference m(D(s)(+))-m(D(+)) at CDF II

    Get PDF
    We present a measurement of the mass difference m(Ds+) -m(D+), where both the Ds+ and D+ are reconstructed in the φπ+ decay channel. This measurement uses 11.6 pb-1 of data collected by CDF II using the new displaced-track trigger. The mass difference is found to be m(D s+)-m(D+) = 99.41±0.38(stat) ±0.21(syst) MeV/c2. copy; 2003 The American Physical Society

    We present a measurement of the mass difference m(D-s(+))-m(D+), where both the D-s(+) and D+ are reconstructed in the phipi(+) decay channel. This measurement uses 11.6 pb(-1) of data collected by CDF II using the new displaced-track trigger. The mass difference is found to be m(D-s(+))-m(D+)=99.41+/-0.38(stat)+/-0.21(syst) MeV/c(2)
