A Measurement of the Average Lifetime of Hadrons Containing Bottom Quarks
- Stanford Univ., Stanford, CA (United States)
This thesis reports a measurement of the average lifetime of hadrons containing bottom quarks. It is based on data taken with the DELCO detector at the PEP e+e- storage ring at a center of mass energy of 29 GeV. The decays of hadrons containing bottom quarks are tagged in hadronic events by the presence of electrons with a large component of momentum transverse to the event axis. Such electrons are identified in the DELCO detector by an atmospheric pressure Cerenkov counter assisted by a lead/scintillator electromagnetic shower counter.
