Title: Measurement of the B_-cmeson lifetime in the decay B_-c→J/ψπ⁻

Abstract

The lifetime of the B_-c meson is measured using 272 exclusive B_-c→J/ψ(→μ⁺μ⁻)π⁻ decays reconstructed in data from proton-antiproton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.7 fb⁻¹ recorded by the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The lifetime of the B_-cmeson is measured to be _τ(B_-c)=0.452±0.048(stat)±0.027(syst) ps. This is the first measurement of the B_-c meson lifetime in a fully reconstructed hadronic channel, and it agrees with previous results and has comparable precision.

  abstractNote = {The lifetime of the B-c meson is measured using 272 exclusive B-c→J/ψ(→μ⁺μ⁻)π⁻ decays reconstructed in data from proton-antiproton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.7 fb⁻¹ recorded by the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The lifetime of the B-cmeson is measured to be τ(B-c)=0.452±0.048(stat)±0.027(syst) ps. This is the first measurement of the B-c meson lifetime in a fully reconstructed hadronic channel, and it agrees with previous results and has comparable precision.},

Measurement of the B^±_c Meson Lifetime Using B^±_c→ J/Ψ + l^± + X Decays

Thesis/Dissertation Hartz, Mark Patrick

This thesis describes a measurement of the average proper decay time of the B^±_c mesons, the ground state of bottom and charm quark bound states. The lifetime measurement is carried out in the decay modes B^±_c → J/Ψ + e^± + X and B^±_c → J/Ψ + μ^± + X, where the J/Ψ decays as J/Ψ {yields} μ⁺μ^- and the X are unmeasured particles such as v_e or v_μ. The data are collect by the CDF II detector which measures the properties of particles created in √s = 1.96 TeV pmore »« less

Measurement of the $$B_c^{\pm}$$ meson lifetime using $$B_c^{\pm} \to J/\psi~\pi^{\pm}$$ decays

Thesis/Dissertation Song, Hao

This thesis describes a measurement of the lifetime of the B^±_c meson in an exclusive decay channel B^±_c → J/ ψ π^±, where the J/ψ decays as J/ψ → μ⁺μ^- . The measurement uses a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 6.7 fb^-1 collected at CDF. This is the first measurement of the B^± _c meson lifetime in a hadronic channel and the measured lifetime, τ = 0.449 ^+0.054 _-0.048(stat:) ± 0.019(syst:) ps, is in good agreement with previous results obtained from semileptonic decay channel and confirms previous measurements and theoretical predictions.

Search for New Physics in the B⁰₂→J/ΨΦ and B⁰₂→ΦΦ Decays at CDF

Thesis/Dissertation Dorigo, Mirco

We present a search for physics beyond the standard model (SM) through a measurement of the violation of the charge-parity (CP) symmetry in two decays of the B⁰₂ meson using data collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) in proton-antiproton collisions at the center-of-mass energy of 1.96TeV. We exploit the decays B⁰₂→J/Ψ(→ μ⁺μ^-)(→ K⁺K^-) and B⁰₂→Φ (→ K⁺K^-)Φ(→ K⁺K^-), for which the SM accurately predicts very small or vanishing CP violation; both decay modes are very sensitive to new sources of CP violation expected in a broad class of SM extensions. We analyze the time-dependent CP asymmetry of themore »« less
