Measurement of the form-factor ratios for D+ ---> anti-K*0 e+ electron-neutrino

Journal Article · · Phys.Rev.Lett.
We present a measurement of the form-factor ratios r_V=V(0)/A_1(0) and r_2=A_2(0)/A_1(0) for the decay D^+ -> \overline K^{*0} e^+ \nu_e. The measurement is based on a signal of approximately 3000 $$D^+ -> \overline K^{*0} e^+ \nu_e, \overline K^{*0} -> K^-\pi^+$$ decays reconstructed in data from charm hadroproduction experiment E791 at Fermilab. The results are r_V = 1.84 +- 0.11 +- 0.08 and r_2 = 0.71 +- 0.08 +- 0.09.
