  4. Physics motivations • charm counting puzzle B  D(*) D(*) K : significant (~1/2) contribution to b ccs transitions precise BF’s measurements needed • B0 D(*) D(*) K0Sto probe both sin2 and cos2 small penguin pollution expected • possible resonant contribution cc-bar states ((3770), (4040), …) upper-vertex D(*)K system vector-dominance model 1+ 1- particles easily produced from W-vertex (because of V-A)  quasi-2-body B decays rather than 3-body ( e.g high BF`s for B   D(*), a1 (1260) D(*), Ds*D ) expecteddecays to orbitally-excited Ds mesons followed by Ds** D(*)K p-wave excited (c s) states : according to HQS 2 doublets : jP = 1/2+ JP = (0 + , 1+ ) D*s0D*s1 not seen, wide jP = 3/2+ JP = (1 + , 2+ ) probably Ds1±(2536) DsJ ±(2573) narrow JOLANTA BRODZICKA B  D(*) D(*) K December 12, 2002

  10. Multi-candidates events treatment • more than 1 candidates in the same B sub-mode • multi D(*) candidates per event • D(*)D(*) combinations with different K`s ~3. B cand per event ( all sub-modes ) D, D* probabilities (LR): S(MD) S(MD), B(MD) parameterization from MD fit LR_D (MD) = + S(MD) B(MD) S(MD*) S(MD*), B(MD*) parameterization from MD*fit LR_D*(MD*) = + S(MD*) B(MD*) JOLANTA BRODZICKA B  D(*) D(*) K December 12, 2002

  11. Choice of the best B candidate B probability (LR_B) ( for each B decay sub-mode separately ) LR_B = LR_D(*) × LR_D(*) • best B candidate : with max LR_B • equal LR_B case ( B`s differ only in K ) : • larger K±_ID or better K0S mass candidate chosen S/(S+B) choice method “combines” both criteria: (M-MPDG)/ and S/B ratio JOLANTA BRODZICKA B  D(*) D(*) K December 12, 2002
