Measurement of the polarization in the decay B {yields}J/{psi}K{sup *}

Abstract

Polarization in the exclusive decay B{yields}J/{psi}K* was measured using the ARGUS detector at the e{sup +}e{sup -} storage ring DORIS II. The ratio of the transverse to the total decay width was found to be {Gamma}{sub T}/{Gamma}=0.03{+-}0.16{+-}0.15. This measurement demonstrates that the B{sup 0}{yields}J/{psi}K*{sup 0} decay channel can be effectively used for CP violation studies. (orig.)
