Abstract: The decays ϒ(4S)→BB , followed by B→D^*π and D^*→Dπ, permit reconstruction of all kinematic quantities that describe the sequence without reconstruction of the D, with reasonably low backgrounds. Using an integrated e^+e^- luminosity of 3.1 fb^(-1) accumulated at the ϒ(4S) by the CLEO-II detector, we report measurements of B(B ^0→D^(*+)π^-) = (2.81±0.11±0.21±0.05)×10^(-3) and B(B-→D^*0π^-) = (4.34±0.33±0.34±0.18)×10^(-3).

Abstract: Using data taken with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we present the first full angular analysis in the color-suppressed modes B{sup 0}{r_arrow}J/{psi}K{sup *0} and B{sup +}{r_arrow}J/{psi}K{sup *+}. This leads to a complete determination of the decay amplitudes of these modes including the longitudinal polarization {Gamma}{sub L}/{Gamma}=0.52{plus_minus}0.07{plus_minus}0.04 and the P wave component {vert_bar}P{vert_bar}{sup 2}=0.16{plus_minus}0.08{plus_minus}0.04. In addition, we update the branching fractions for B{r_arrow}J/{psi}K and B{r_arrow}J/{psi}K{sup *}. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Abstract: The decay {tau}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow}2{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup + }3{pi}{sup 0}{nu}{sub {tau}} has been studied with the CLEOII detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. The branching fraction is measured to be (2.85{plus_minus}0.56{plus_minus}0.51){times}10{sup {minus}4} . The result is in good agreement with the isospin expectation but somewhat below the conserved-vector-current prediction. We have searched for resonance substructure in the decay. Within the statistical precision, the decay is saturated by the channels {tau}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow}{pi}{sup {minus}}2{pi}{sup 0 }{omega}{nu}{sub {tau}} , 2{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup +}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}} , and {pi}{sup {minus}}2{pi}{sup 0}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}} . This is the first observation of this {omega} decay mode and the branching fraction is measured to be (1.89{sup +0.74}{sub {minus}0.67}{plus_minus}0.40) {times}10{sup {minus}4} . {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Abstract: We use the CLEO detector at the Cornell e{sup +}e{sup {minus}} storage ring, CESR, to search for the two-photon production of the glueball candidate f{sub J}(2220) in its decay to K{sub s}K{sub s} . We present a restrictive upper limit on the product of the two-photon partial width and the K{sub s}K{sub s} branching fraction, ({Gamma}{sub {gamma}{gamma}}B{sub K{sub s}K{sub s}}){sub f{sub J(2220) }} . We use this limit to calculate a lower limit on the stickiness, which is a measure of the two-gluon coupling relative to the two-photon coupling. This limit on stickiness indicates that the f{sub J}(2220) has substantial glueball content. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Abstract: Using data collected in the region of the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the CLEO II detector operating at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring CESR, we present the first observation of B mesons decaying into the charmed strange baryons Xi_c0 and Xi_c+. We find 79 +/- 27 Xi_c0 and 125 +/- 28 Xi_c+ candidates from B decays, leading to product branching fractions of BR(Bbar -> Xi_c0 X)BR(Xi_c0 -> Xi- pi+) = (0.144 +/- 0.048 +/- 0.021) x 10^-3 and BR(Bbar -> Xi_c+ X)BR(Xi_c+ -> Xi- pi+ pi+) = (0.453 +/- 0.096 +0.085-0.065) x 10^-3.

Abstract: We have searched for the rare decay of the eta meson $\eta \to e^{+}e^{-}$ using the CLEO II detector. The $\eta$'s were produced in $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions with 10 GeV center-of-mass energy at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). We find with 90% confidence the upper limit on the branching fraction $B(\eta \to e^{+}e^{-}) < 7.7\times 10^{-5}$. The application of conventional elementary particle theory to this decay predicts a branching fraction of about $10^{-9}$.

Abstract: A search for the decay of the tau lepton to seven charged pions and one or zero pizero mesons was performed using the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The analysis uses 232.2 fb-1 of data at center-of-mass energies on or near the Y(4S) resonance. We observe 24 events with an expected background of 21.6+-1.3 events. Without evidence for a signal, we calculate an upper limit of BR(tau- --> 4pi- 3pi+ (pizero) nu_tau) 4pi- 3pi+ nu_tau and tau- --> 4pi- 3pi+ pizero nu_tau.

Abstract: Using data collected in the region of the {Upsilon}(4S) resonance with the CLEO-II detector, they report on the first observation of exclusive decays of the B meson to final states with a charmed baryon. They have measured the branching fractions {Beta}(B{sup -} {yields} {Lambda}{sub c}{sup +}{bar p}{pi}{sup -}) = (0.62{sub -0.20}{sup +0.23} {+-} 0.11 {+-} 0.10) x 10{sup -3} and {Beta}({bar B}{sup 0} {yields} {Lambda}{sub c}{sup +}{bar p}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}) = (1.33{sub -0.42}{sup +0.46} {+-} 0.31 {+-} 0.21) x 10{sup -3}. In addition, they report upper limits for final states of the form {bar B} {yields} {Lambda}{sub c}{sup +}{bar p}(n{pi}) and {Lambda}{sub c}{sup +}{bar p}(n{pi}){pi}{sup 0} where (n{pi}) denotes up to four charged pions.

Abstract: We report new measurements of the differential and total branching ratios for inclusive B decay to D{sup 0}, D{sup +}, and D{sup *+} and the first measurement of the same quantities for inclusive B decay to D{sup *0}. Here B is the mixture of B{sub d} and B{sub u} from {Upsilon}(4S) decay. Furthermore, since more than one charm particle (or antiparticle) of the same kind can be produced in B decay, here {open_quotes}inclusive B branching ratio{close_quotes} is used to mean the average number of charm particles and their antiparticles of a certain species produced in B decay. We obtain the following results (the first error is statistical, the second systematic of this analysis, the third propagated from other measurements): B(B{r_arrow}D{sup 0}X)=(0.636{plus_minus}0.014{plus_minus}0.019{plus_minus}0.0 8), B(B{r_arrow}D{sup +}X)=(0.235{plus_minus}0.009{plus_minus}0.009{plus_minus}0.024), B(B{r_arrow}D{sup *0}X) =(0.247{plus_minus}0.012{plus_minus}0.018{plus_minus}0.018), B(B{r_arrow}D{sup *+}X)=(0.239{plus_minus}0.011{plus_minus}0.014{plus_minus}0. 09). The following ratio of branching ratios is not affected by most of the systematic errors: B(B{r_arrow}D{sup *0}X)/ B(B{r_arrow}D{sup *+}X)=(1.03{plus_minus}0.07{plus_minus}0.09{plus_minus}0.08). We also report the first measurement of the momentum-dependent D{sup *0} polarization and a new measurement of the D{sup *+} polarization in inclusive B decay. Using these measurements and other CLEO results and making some additional assumptions, we calculate the average number of c and {bar c} quarks produced in Bmore » decay to be {l_angle}n{sub c}{r_angle}=1.10{plus_minus}0.05. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}« less

Abstract: We use data collected by the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) to search for B{sup +} {yields} h{sup +}h{sup -}h{sup +} (non-resonant) decays, where h{sup {+-}} can be either {pi}{sup {+-}}, K{sup {+-}} or p({bar p}). We see no evidence for signals and set upper limits on the branching fractions in the range (2.8 - 8.9) x 10{sup -5}. If observed, these decays may display CP violating asymmetries.

Abstract: Using the angular correlation between the ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$ emitted in a ${D}^{*+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{0}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$ decay and the ${e}^{+}$ emitted in the subsequent ${D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}X{e}^{+}\ensuremath{\nu}$ decay, we have measured the branching fraction for the inclusive semielectronic decay of the ${D}^{0}$ meson to be $\mathcal{B}({D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}X{e}^{+}\ensuremath{\nu})=[6.64\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.18(\mathrm{stat})\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.29(\mathrm{syst})]%$. The measurement uses 1.7 ${\mathrm{fb}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ of ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ collisions recorded by the CLEO II detector located at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). Combining this result with previous CLEO results we find $\frac{\mathcal{B}({D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}X{e}^{+}\ensuremath{\nu})}{\mathcal{B}({D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+})}=1.684\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.056(\mathrm{stat})\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.093(\mathrm{syst})$ and $\frac{\mathcal{B}({D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}{e}^{+}\ensuremath{\nu})}{\mathcal{B}({D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}X{e}^{+}\ensuremath{\nu})}=0.581\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.023(\mathrm{stat})\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.028(\mathrm{syst})$. The difference between this inclusive rate and the sum of the measured exclusive branching fractions (measured at CLEO and other experiments) is also presented.

Abstract: Using data samples taken at the ϒ(4S) resonance and nearby continuum e + e - annihilation with the CLEO-II detector at CESR, we have measured the inclusive branching fraction B(B→ηX)=(17.6±1.1±1.2)%, and the momentum distribution of the η mesons from B meson decay. The η yield cannot be explained as arising solely from the decay of intermediate charmed mesons.

Abstract: We present a model-independent measurement of B(D s − → Φπ − ) B(D 0 → K − π + ) by partially reconstructing the decay B 0 → D ∗+ D s ∗− . Using data collected with the CLEO II detector at CESR, we determine B(D s − → Φπ − ) B(D 0 → K − π + ) = 0.92 ± 0.20 (stat.) ± 0.11(syst.) . Our measurement of B ( D 0 → K − π + ) then gives B ( D s − → Φπ − ) = (3.59 ± 0.77 ± 0.48)%.

Abstract: The decay {tau}{sup -} {yields} K{sup -} {eta}{nu}{sub {tau}} has been observed with the CLEO II detector. The {eta} meson is reconstructed using two decay channels, {eta} {yields} {gamma}{gamma} and {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}{pi}{sup 0}. The measured branching fraction is B({tau}{sup -} {yields} K{sup -}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}}) = (2.6 {+-} 0.5 {+-} 0.5) x 10{sup -4}, somewhat higher than the theoretical estimates. An improved upper limit for the second-class-current decay {tau}{sup -} {yields} {pi}{sup -}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}} is set, B({tau}{sup -} {yields} {pi}{sup -}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}}) < 1.4 x 10{sup -4} at 95% CL, consistent with the theoretical expectations.

Abstract: This paper describes new measurements from CLEO of the inclusive B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{+}$X branching fraction as well as the ${\mathit{B}}^{+}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{(\mathrm{*})+}$D${\mathrm{\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}}}^{(\mathrm{*})0}$ and ${\mathit{B}}^{0}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{(\mathrm{*})+}$${\mathit{D}}^{(\mathrm{*})\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$ branching fractions. The inclusive branching fraction is B(B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{+}$X)=(12.11\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.39\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.88\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.38)% where the first error is statistical, the second is the systematic error, and the third is the error due to the uncertainty in the ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{+}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\varphi}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$ branching fraction. The branching fractions for the B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{(\mathrm{*})+}$D${\mathrm{\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}}}^{(\mathrm{*})}$ modes are found to be between 0.9% and 2.4% and are significantly more precise than previous measurements. The sum of the B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{(\mathrm{*})+}$D${\mathrm{\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}}}^{(\mathrm{*})}$ branching fractions is consistent with the results of fits to the inclusive ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{+}$ momentum spectrum. Factorization is used to arrive at a value for ${\mathit{f}}_{{\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}}$, the ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{+}$ decay constant. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

Abstract: Using the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have searched for flavor changing neutral currents and lepton family number violations in D^0 meson decays. The upper limits on the branching fractions for D^0→l^+l^- and D^0→X^0l^+l^- are in the range 10^(-5) to 10^(-4), where X^0 can be a π^0, K_s^0, η, ρ^0, ω, K^(*0), or φ meson, and the l^+l^- pair can be e^+e^-, μ^+μ^-, or e^±μ^∓. Although these limits are above the theoretical predictions, most are new or an order of magnitude lower than previous limits.

Abstract: We have used the CLEO II detector and 2.06fb^(-1) of ϒ(4S) data to measure the B-meson semileptonic branching fraction. The B→Xeν momentum spectrum was obtained over nearly the full momentum range by using charge and kinematic correlations in events with a high-momentum lepton tag and an additional electron. We find B(B→Xeν) = (10.49±0.17±0.43)%, with overall systematic uncertainties less than those of untagged single-lepton measurements. We use this result to calculate the magnitude of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element V_(cb) and to set an upper limit on the fraction of ϒ(4S) decays to final states other than BB .

Abstract: We have studied the Cabibbo suppressed and color suppressed two-body decays B to ψϱ (ψω or ψa 1 ). Using a data sample of 5.12 million B decays collected with the CLEO II detector we find the 90% confidence level upper limits for branching fractions of B 0 → ψϱ 0 and B 0 → ψω to be 2.5 · 10 −4 and 2.7 · 10 −4 , respectively. We also update the branching fraction B − → ψπ − to be (5.6 ± 2.7) · 10 −5 .

Abstract: We report the observation of the Cabibbo-suppressed decays {Lambda}{sub {ital c}}{sup +}{r_arrow}{ital pK{sup {minus}}K{sup +}} and {Lambda}{sub {ital c}}{sup +}{r_arrow}{ital p}{phi} using data collected with the CLEO II detector at CESR. The latter mode, observed for the first time with significant statistics, is of interest as a test of color suppression in charm decays. We have determined the branching ratios for these modes relative to {Lambda}{sub {ital c}}{sup +}{r_arrow}{ital pK{sup {minus}}}{pi}{sup +} and compared our results with theory. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}

Abstract: We have observed five new decay modes of the charmed baryon {Lambda}{sup +}{sub {ital c}} using data collected with the CLEO II detector. Four decay modes, {Lambda}{sup +}{sub {ital c}}{r_arrow}{ital p{bar K}}{sup 0}{eta}, {Lambda}{eta}{pi}{sup +}, {Sigma}{sup +}{eta}, and {Sigma}{sup *+}{eta}, are first observations of final states with an {eta} meson, while the fifth mode, {Lambda}{sup +}{sub {ital c}}{r_arrow}{Lambda}{ital {bar K}}{sup 0}{ital K}{sup +}, requires the creation of an {ital s{bar s}} quark pair. We measure the branching fractions of these modes relative to {Lambda}{sup +}{sub {ital c}}{r_arrow}{ital pK}{sup -}{pi}{sup +} to be 0.25{plus_minus}0.04{plus_minus}0.04, 0.35{plus_minus}0.05{plus_minus}0.06, 0.11{plus_minus}0.03{plus_minus}0.02, 0.17{plus_minus}0.04{plus_minus}0.03, and 0.12{plus_minus}0.02{plus_minus}0.02, respectively.

Abstract: From this partial width we calculate [ital [bar B]][r arrow][ital D][sup *][ital l][bar [nu]] branching fractions that do not depend on [ital f][sub +[minus]]/[ital f][sub 00] or the individual [ital B] lifetimes, but only on the charged to neutral [ital B] lifetime ratio. The product of the CKM matrix element [vert bar][ital V][sub [ital c][ital b]][vert bar] times the normalization of the decay form factor at the point of no recoil of the [ital D][sup *] meson, [ital scrF]([ital y]=1), is determined from a linear fit to the combined differential decay rate of the exclusive [ital [bar B]][r arrow][ital D][sup *][ital l][bar [nu]] decays: [vert bar][ital V][sub [ital c][ital b]][vert bar][ital scrF](1)=0.0351[plus minus]0.0019 (stat) [plus minus]0.0018 (syst) [plus minus]0.0008 (lifetime). The value for [vert bar][ital V][sub [ital c][ital b]][vert bar] is extracted using theoretical calculations of the form factor normalization.

Abstract: We have found the first evidence for the Cabibbo suppressed, color suppressed decay B − → ψπ − in a data sample of 4 million B decays obtained by the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). The branching ratio is found to be (4.3±2.3)% of the Cabibbo allowed B − → ψK − decay mode, which is consistent with theoretical expectations.

Abstract: Branching ratios for the dominant Cabibbo-suppressed decays of the $\tau$ lepton have been measured by CLEO~II in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation at CESR ($\sqrt{s} \sim 10.6$~GeV) using kaons with momenta below $0.7\ \rm GeV/c$. The inclusive branching ratio into one charged kaon is $(1.60 \pm 0.12 \pm 0.19)\%$. For the exclusive decays, $B(\tau \to K^-) = (0.66 \pm 0.07 \pm 0.09)\%$, $B(\tau \to K^- \pi^0) = (0.51 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.07)\%$, and, based on three events, $B(\tau \to K^- \pi^0 \pi^0) < 0.3\%$ at the 90\% confidence level. These represent significant improvements over previous results. $B(\tau\to K^- \pi^0)$ is measured for the first time with exclusive $\pi^0$ reconstruction., Comment: 11 pages uuencoded compressed postscript (process with uudecode then gunzip). hardcopies with figures can be obtained by sending mail to: preprints@lns62.lns.cornell.edu

Abstract: The branching fractions for the five-charged-particle decays of the [tau] lepton have been measured in [ital e][sup +][ital e][sup [minus]] annihilations using the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. Assuming all charged particles to be pions, the results are [ital B](3[pi][sup [minus]]2[pi][sup +][ge]0 neutrals [nu][sub [tau]])=(0.097[plus minus]0.005[plus minus]0.011)%, [ital B](3[pi][sup [minus]]2[pi][sup +][nu][sub [tau]])=(0.077[plus minus]0.005 [plus minus]0.009)%, [ital B](3[pi][sup [minus]]2[pi][sup +][pi][sup 0][nu][sub [tau]])=(0.019[plus minus]0.004[plus minus]0.004)%, and [ital B](3[pi][sup [minus]]2[pi][sup +]2[pi][sup 0][nu][sub [tau]])[lt]0.011% at the 90% C.L. [ital B](3[pi][sup [minus]]2[pi][sup [minus]][pi][sup 0][nu][sub [tau]]) is measured for the first time by exclusive [pi][sup 0] reconstruction. The results are compared with the predictions from the partially conserved-axial-current and conserved-vector-current hypotheses assuming isospin invariance.

Abstract: Using data from the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we measure [ital scrB]([tau][sup [minus]][r arrow][ital h][sup [minus]][pi][sup 0][nu][sub [tau]]) where [ital h][sup [minus]] refers to either [pi][sup [minus]] or [ital K][sup [minus]]. We use three different methods to measure this branching fraction. The combined result is [ital scrB]([tau][sup [minus]][r arrow][ital h][sup [minus]][pi][sup 0][nu][sub [tau]])=0.2587[plus minus]0.0012[plus minus]0.0042, in good agreement with standard model predictions.

Abstract: We have observed the previously unseen decay modes Λπ+π0, Σ0π+π0 and Σ0π−π+π+ of the charmed baryon Λc+, as well as Λc+→Σ0π+ observed previously by ARGUS. The branching ratios for these four decay modes relative to Λc+→pK−π+ are measured to be 0.73 ±0.09± 0.16, 0.36 ±0.09±0.10, 0.21±0.05±0.05, and 0.21±0.02 ±0.04, respectively. Using the recent CLEO measurement of the branching ratio for Λc+→pK− π+, these modes account for 6% of Λc+ decays.

We find 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions, ${\mathit{B}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}$2.9\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}5}$, ${\mathit{B}}_{\mathit{K}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}$2.6\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}5}$, and ${\mathit{B}}_{\mathit{K}\mathit{K}}$0.7\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}5}$. While there is no statistically significant signal in the individual modes, the sum of ${\mathit{B}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}$ and ${\mathit{B}}_{\mathit{K}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}$ exceeds zero with a significance of more than 4 standard deviations, indicating that we have observed charmless hadronic B decays.

Abstract: We have measured branching ratios for three [Lambda][sub [ital c]] decay modes that have a [Sigma][sup +] in the final state. Two of the observed decay modes, [Lambda][sub [ital c]][r arrow][Sigma][sup +][pi][sup 0] and [Lambda][sub [ital c]][sup +][r arrow][Sigma][sup +][omega], have no external [ital W]-emission amplitudes. Their branching ratios relative to the [ital pK][sup [minus]][pi][sup +] mode are 0.20[plus minus]0.03[plus minus]0.03 and 0.54[plus minus]0.13[plus minus]0.06, respectively. We have also significantly improved the measurement of the branching ratio for the previously observed decay mode [Lambda][sub [ital c]][sup +][r arrow][Sigma][sup +][pi][sup +][pi][sup [minus]]. We find its branching ratio relative to [ital pK][sup [minus]][pi][sup +] to be 0.74[plus minus]0.07[plus minus]0.09.

The angular correlation between the ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$ emitted in the decay ${\mathit{D}}^{\mathrm{*}+}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathit{D}}^{0}$${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$, and the jet direction in ${\mathit{e}}^{+}$${\mathit{e}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}cc\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{} events, is used to determine the total number of inclusive ${\mathit{D}}^{0}$ mesons produced from this source.

Abstract: Using a sample of integrated luminosity 1.68 fb−1 collected with the CLEO-II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we measure the branching ratios for the dominant exclusive semileptonic decays D → K l ν and D → K ∗ l ν , using charged and neutral D mesons. We also make a precise measurement of the vector form factor for the decay D 0 → K − l + ν , using a sample of 2700 events.

Abstract: Using the CLEO II detector at CESR we have studied [ital D][sup 0] decays into final states with a [ital [bar K]] [sup 0] or [ital [bar K]] [sup *0], and have measured branching ratios for the decay modes [ital D][sup 0][r arrow]([ital [bar K]] [sup 0]/[ital [bar K]] [sup *0])[pi][sup 0],[eta],[eta][prime]. These results are compared with predictions of various charm decay models, and contributions of final-state interactions are discussed.

Abstract: We report the measurement of new modes of the charmed baryon ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}}_{\mathit{c}}^{+}$ using data recorded by the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring.

Abstract: Using data from CLEO II at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring we provide a new measurement of the branching fraction for [ital D][sup 0][r arrow][pi][sup +][pi][sup [minus]], and we present the first measurements of [ital D][sup 0][r arrow][pi][sup 0][pi][sup 0] and of [ital D][sup +][r arrow][pi][sup +][pi][sup 0], which is due to an isospin changing [Delta][ital I]=3/2 transition. From these data we extract the ratio of isospin amplitudes [vert bar][ital A][sub 2]/[ital A][sub 0][vert bar], and the cosine of the relative phase [delta]=[delta][sub 2][minus][delta][sub 0] between these amplitudes, for [ital D][r arrow][pi][pi] decays. Unlike the situation in kaon decay where [ital A][sub 2] is strongly suppressed, we find [vert bar][ital A][sub 2]/[ital A][sub 0][vert bar]=0.72[plus minus]0.13[plus minus]0.11 and cos[delta]=0.14[plus minus]0.13[plus minus]0.09.

Abstract: The decay [tau][sup [minus]][r arrow][pi][sup [minus]][pi][sup +][pi][sup [minus]]2[pi][sup 0][nu][sub [tau]] has been observed in [ital e][sup +][ital e[minus]] annihilation using the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. In a data sample collected at [radical][ital s] [similar to]10.6 GeV, 668[plus minus]38 decay candidates have been identified by exclusively reconstructing two [pi][sup 0]'s accompanying three charged particles, which are assumed to be pions. Normalizing to the number of [tau] pairs detected with one charged particle recoiling against three charged particles, this yields a branching ratio of [ital B][sub 3[pi]2[pi]][sup 0]=(0.48[plus minus]0.04[plus minus]0.04)%. A signal of 430[plus minus]33 events for the decay [tau][sup [minus]][r arrow][pi][sup [minus]][omega][pi][sup 0][nu][sub [tau]] has also been observed, corresponding to a branching ratio of [ital B][sub [pi][omega][pi]][sup 0]=(0.39[plus minus]0.04[plus minus]0.04)%.

Abstract: We have observed the decays [ital B][sup 0][r arrow][ital K][sup *](892)[sup 0][gamma] and [ital B][sup [minus]][r arrow][ital K][sup *](892)[sup [minus]][gamma], which are evidence for the quark-level process [ital b][r arrow][ital s][gamma]. The average branching fraction is (4.5[plus minus]1.5[plus minus]0.9)[times]10[sup [minus]5]. This value is consistent with standard model predictions from electromagnetic penguin diagrams.

Abstract: We present a measurement of the lepton decay asymmetry ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathrm{fb}}$ in the reaction B\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathit{D}}^{\mathrm{*}}$${\mathit{l}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$\ensuremath{\nu}${\mathrm{\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}}}_{\mathit{l}}$ using data collected with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). The value of ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathrm{fb}}$ confirms that the chirality of the weak interaction is predominantly left-handed in b\ensuremath{\rightarrow}c transitions as expected in the standard model, if it is assumed that the lepton current is also left-handed. Using ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathrm{fb}}$ and the previously determined branching ratio, ${\mathit{q}}^{2}$ distribution, and ${\mathit{D}}^{\mathrm{*}}$ polarization, we obtain the first measurement of the form-factor ratios that are used to describe this semileptonic decay.

Abstract: A search for the lepton mumber violating decay of the [tau] lepton to the [gamma][mu] final state has been performed with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell [ital e][sup +][ital e[minus]] storage ring CESR. In a data sample that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1.55 fb[sup [minus]1], we observe no candidates in the signal region. We thus determine an upper limit of [ital B]([tau][sup [minus]][r arrow][gamma][mu][sup [minus]])[lt]4.2[times]10[sup [minus]6] at 90% confidence level.

Abstract: The tau lepton electron branching fraction has been measured with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring as [ital B][sub [ital e]]=0.1749[plus minus]0.0014[plus minus]0.0022, with the first error statistical and the second systematic. The measurement involves counting electron-positron annihilation events in which both taus decay to electrons, and normalizing to the number of tau-pair decays expected from the measured luminosity. Detected photons in these events constitute a definitive observation of tau decay radiation.

Abstract: The decay [tau][sup [minus]][r arrow][nu][sub [tau]][pi][sup [minus]][pi][sup 0][eta] has been observed for the first time using the CLEO-II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. The measured branching ratio (0.17[plus minus]0.02[plus minus]0.02)%, agrees with the CVC (conserved vector current) prediction based on [ital e][sup +][ital e[minus]][r arrow][pi][sup +][pi][sup [minus]][eta] data. Upper limits on the branching ratios for other [tau] decays to final states including [eta] mesons are improved by an order of magnitude compared to previous measurements.

Abstract: Using the CsI calorimeter of the CLEO-II detector, we have studied exclusive radiative decays of the ϒ(3S) to the χ (2P) states where the final state consists of two photons and two leptons (e + e − or μ + μ − , from either the ϒ(1S) or ϒ(2S)). We observe and measure branching ratios for the J =2 and J =1 χ b (2 3 P J ) states, and set upper limits for the J =0 state.

Abstract: We report a measurement of the {ital D}{sup *+} and {ital D}{sup *0} decay branching fractions based on 780 pb{sup {minus}1} of data collected with the CLEO II detector. For radiative {ital D}{sup *+} decay, we obtain an upper limit, {ital scrB}({ital D}{sup *+}{r arrow}{ital D}{sup +}{gamma}){lt}4.2% (90% confidence level), which is substantially below previous results, and eliminates the need for an anomalously large charm quark magnetic moment.

Abstract: We have made measurements of several {ital D}{sub {ital s}} branching ratios, relative to the {phi}{pi}{sup +} mode. We have observed two previously unseen two-body hadronic decays of the {ital D}{sub {ital s}}{sup +}, namely {eta}{rho}{sup +} and {eta}{prime}{rho}{sup +}, and measured relative branching ratios of 2.86{plus minus}0.38{sub {minus}0.38}{sup +0.36} and 3.44{plus minus}0.62{sub {minus}0.46}{sup +0.44}, respectively. We have determined the relative branching ratio for the decay into {phi}{rho}{sup +} to be 1.86{plus minus}0.26{sub {minus}0.40}{sup +0.29}. In addition, we have measured relative branching ratios for the {eta}{pi}{sup +} and {eta}{prime}{pi}{sup +} states, for which there had previously been conflicting measurements; our results are 0.54{plus minus}0.09{plus minus}0.06 and 1.20{plus minus}0.15{plus minus}0.11, respectively. Combining these new measurements with previous results and using (3.7{plus minus}1.2)% for the value of {ital scrB}({ital D}{sub {ital s}}{r arrow}{phi}{pi}{sup +}), we can account for {approx}(79{plus minus}26)% of all {ital D}{sub {ital s}}{sup +} decays. In addition we have also measured relative branching ratios or set upper limits on {ital D}{sup +} decays to all of the above-mentioned final states.

Abstract: We have observed the previously unseen \ensuremath{\eta}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\rho}}}^{+}$ and \ensuremath{\eta}'${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\rho}}}^{+}$ decay model of the ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}^{+}$, and measured branching ratios relative to the \ensuremath{\varphi}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$ mode of 2.86\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.${38}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}0.38}^{+0.36}$ and 3.44\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.${62}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}0.46}^{+0.44}$, respectively. In addition, the relative branching ratio for the decay into \ensuremath{\varphi}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\rho}}}^{+}$ is measured as 1.86\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.${26}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}0.40}^{+0.29}$. Combining these new measurements with previous results and those in the preceding Letter, we account for \ensuremath{\approxeq}(79\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}26)% of ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{s}}$ decays.
