Title: Recent measurements of the average lifetime of hadrons containing B-quarks from PEP experiments at SLAC (Stanford Linear Accelerator Center)

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6494265

Recent precise results from several experiments have confirmed the early evidence that the lifetime of hadrons containing B-quarks is rather long, implying that the third generation of quarks is more decoupled from the first two than the second is from the first. The average of the measurements performed by the experiments at PEP is 1.08 +- 0.13 ps.
