Recent results on D meson decays from BES Ma HaiLong [For BES Collaboration] Institute of High Energy Physics, Beijing China CHARM06 Beijing China 2006-6-5
Outline • Introduction • Singly tagged D samples • Semileptonic decays • Inclusive decays • Summary
BEPC collider L ~ 11031 /cm2s @3.773GeV Ecm~2-5 GeV
BESII detector VC: xy = 100 m TOF: T = 180 ps counter: r= 3 cm MDC: xy = 220 m BSC: E/E= 22 % z = 5.5 cm dE/dx= 8.5 % = 7.9 mr B field: 0.4 T p/p=1.7%(1+p2) z = 3.1 cm
dE/dx and TOF information μ identification can be done by the μ Counter for the charged track with momentum of greater than 0.55 GeV/c dE/dx TOF
(3770) data sample ~18 pb-1 data taken at 3.773 GeV ~7 pb-1 data taken at the region from 3.768 GeV to 3.778 GeV ~8 pb-1 data taken in the energy region from 3.665 to 3.878 GeV The total Luminosity is about 33 pb-1
Motivation Isospin conservation implies The called “Longstanding puzzle” in Charm decay! Is isospin conservation held in the D semileptonic decays? PDG04 BF The puzzle has beensolved! BESII [Phys.

Motivation Up to now, PDG has not summarized the branching fractions for some inclusive decays of D mesons Measurements of branching fractions for the inclusive decays of D mesons serve as check on the sum of the branching fractions for the exclusive D decays provide information about the relative strength of Cabibbo-favored and Cabibbo-suppressed D decays.
