The absorbed-dose distributions for bremsstrahlung, incident on a tissue-equivalent phantom, were measured with LiF : Mg,Ti thermoluminescent dosimeters at two insertion device beamlines of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF). The measurements were carried out for two different electron beam energies of 4 and 6 GeV. The corresponding bremsstrahlung spectra and power were measured using a high-resolution lead glass total absorption calorimeter. The results are compared with similar measurements carried out at other facilities. The normalized bremsstrahlung absorbed dose in a cross-sectional area of 100 mm 2 , at a depth of 150 mm of the phantom, was measured as 6.1 and 3.6 kGy h −1 W −1 for the corresponding bremsstrahlung spectra of 4 and 6 GeV.

Electron storage rings generate energetic bremsstrahlung photons through radiative interaction of the particle beam with the residual gas molecules and other components inside the storage ring. At the Advanced Photon Source (APS), where the stored beam energy is 7 GeV, bremsstrahlung generated in the straight sections of the insertion devices comes down through the beamlines. The resulting absorbed dose distributions by this radiation in a 300 mm × 300 mm × 300 mm tissue substitute phantom were measured with LiF:Mg, Ti (TLD-700) thermoluminescent dosimeters. The average normalized absorbed dose, in a cross sectional area of 100 mm2 at a depth of 150 mm of the PMMA phantom, was measured as 3.3 × 106 mGy h−1W−1 for a 7-GeV bremsstrahlung spectrum.

High-energy electron storage rings generate energetic bremsstrahlung photons through radiative interaction of the particle beam with the residual gas molecules and other components inside the storage ring. At synchrotron radiation facilities, where beamlines are channeled out of the storage ring, a continuous bremsstrahlung spectrum, with a maximum energy of the stored particle beam, will be present. At the advanced photon source (APS), where the stored beam energy is 7 GeV, bremsstrahlung generated in the straight sections of the insertion device beamlines, which are a total of 15.38 m in length, can be significant. The contribution from each bremsstrahlung interaction adds up to produce a narrow mono-directional bremsstrahlung beam that comes down through the insertion device beamlines. The resulting absorbed dose distributions by this radiation in a 300 mm×300 mm×300 mm tissue substitute cube phantom were measured with LiF:Mg,Ti (TLD-700) thermoluminescent dosemeters. The normalized absorbed dose, in a cross-sectional area of 100 mm2 at a depth of 150 mm of the PMMA phantom, was measured as 3.3×106 mGy h−1W−1 for 7-GeV bremsstrahlung spectrum.

Photons of sufficiently high energies (Eγ≥5–15 MeV) can produce neutrons by means of photonuclear interactions. Bremsstrahlung from high energy electron storage rings, which have an energy range of zero to the maximum energy of the particle beam, can interact with beamline components like beam stops and collimators generating photoneutrons of varying energies. This paper presents the results of simultaneous measurements of bremsstrahlung power and corresponding photoneutron dose equivalent rate at the insertion device beamlines of the Advanced Photon Source, using a lead-glass calorimeter and an Andersson–Braun remmeter. Targets made of Fe, Cu, W, and Pb are placed in the bremsstrahlung beam inside the first optics enclosure of the insertion device beamlines. The photoneutron dose equivalent rates, normalized to bremsstrahlung power, beam current, and storage ring pressure, are measured for the four targets. The photoneutron dose equivalent rates, normalized to the bremsstrahlung power and corrected for systematic variations, are given as 2.2±0.5 rem/h/W for Fe,3.0±0.5 rem/h/W for Cu, 3.8±0.5 rem/h/W for W, and 3.7±0.8 rem/h/W for Pb targets, at a distance of 0.8 m perpendicular from the target center.

Bremsstrahlung is produced in electron storage rings when the particle beam interacts with the storage ring components or with the residual gas molecules in the storage ring vacuum. The interaction of the particle beam with the gas molecules occurs continuously during storage ring operation. At straight sections of a storage ring, the gas bremsstrahlung contribution from each interaction adds up to produce a narrow monodirectional photon beam that travels down the beamlines. At the Advanced Photon Source (APS), where the stored electron beam energy is 7 GeV, gas bremsstrahlung generated in the straight sections of the insertion device beamlines, which is a total of 15.38 m in effective length, can be significant. This paper presents the results of the bremsstrahlung spectrum and energy measurements from the insertion device beamlines of the APS using a hermetic lead glass calorimeter. The calorimeter consists of 25 lead glass blocks, each 6.3 cm × 6.3 cm × 35 cm, stacked into a 5 × 5 array. Phototubes connected to the lead glass blocks collected the signals. The calorimeter is calibrated using the maximum energy of the observed bremsstrahlung spectrum. The total energy radiated and the bremsstrahlung spectrum were measured as a function of the storage ring beam current for both electrons and positrons of 7 GeV energy. Vacuum in the straight section was continuously monitored, and measurements to determine the nature of the residual gas inside the storage ring were performed. The measured bremsstrahlung spectra are fitted to a function that shows an approximate 1 E behavior. The gas bremsstrahlung rate from the APS undulator beamline straight path of 15.38 m is measured as 60.0 ± 2.0 GeV/s/nT/mA. Significant contribution of bremsstrahlung from sources other than the residual gas molecules is observed. The maximum bremsstrahlung energy measured in a beamline during the experiment is 369.0 ± 22.0 GeV/s/nT/mA.

Results for the Cabibbo suppressed semileptonic decays D 0 → π − e + ν and D 0 → π − μ + ν (charge conjugates are implied) are reported by Fermilab photoproduction experiment E687. We find 45.4 ± 13.3 events in the electron mode and 45.6 ± 11.8 in the muon mode. The relative branching ratio BR (D 0 →π − l + v) BR (D 0 →K − l + v) for the combined sample is measured to be 0.101 ± 0.020 (stat.) ± 0.003 (syst.) 14 .

We report measurements of charm particle production asymmetries from the Fermilab photoproduction experiment E687. An asymmetry in the rate of production of charm versus anticharm particles is expected to arise primarily from fragmentation effects. We observe statistically significant asymmetries in the photoproduction of D+, D ∗+ and D0 mesons and find small (but statistically weak) asymmetries in the production of the Ds+ meson and the Λc+ baryon. Our inclusive photoproduction asymmetries are compared to predictions from nonperturbative models of charm quark fragmentation.

We report on the study of charm baryons decaying to Λ c + : Λ c ★+ (2625) → Λ c + π + π − , Λ c ★+ (2593) → Λ c + π + π − , Σ c 0 → Λ c + π − and Σ c ++ → Λ c + π + . We present a confirmation of the state Λ c ∗+ (2593) and determine its mass difference to be M ( Λ c ★+ (2593)) − M ( Λ c + ) = 309.2 ± 0.7 ± 0.3 MeV/ c 2 . We determine the lower limit on the resonant branching ratio to be BR (Λ c ★+ (2593) → Σ c π ± Λ c ★+ (2593) → Λ c + π + π − ) > 0.51 (90% c.l.). We also measure the mass differences M ( Σ c 0 ) − M ( Λ c + ) = 166.6±0.5±0.6 MeV/ c 2 and M ( Σ c ++ ) − M ( Λ c + ) = 167.6±0.6±0.6 MeV/ c 2 . Finally, we measure the relative photoproduction cross sections for Λ c ★+ and Σ c with respect to the (inclusive) photoproduction cross section for Λ c + .

Fermilab high-energy photoproduction experiment E687 provides a high statistics sample of the decay mode D + → K ∗0 μ + ν (charge conjugates are implied). Our analysis yields a branching ratio of Γ (D + → K ∗0 μ + ν) Γ (D + → K − π + π + ) = 0.56±0.04±0.06 . The ratios of the form factors governing the decay are measured to be R ν = 1.74 ±0.27±0.28 and R 2 = 0.78±0.18±0.10, implying a polarization of Γ l Γ t = 1.20±0.13 ±0.13 for the electron decay. Finally, we report new limits on the decay modes D + → K − π + μ + ν (nonresonent) and D + → K ∗0 π 0 μ + ν .

We report the results of a search for the doubly Cabibbo suppressed decays D+ → K+K−K+ and D+ → ΦK+, and the singly Cabibbo suppressed decays Ds+ → K+K−K+ and Ds+ → ΦK+. Our measurements are all consistent with zero branching ratio, and we set 90% confidence level upper limits on the relative D+ branching ratios: BR(ΦK + ) BR(Φπ + ) , BR(K + K − K + ) BR(Φπ + ) and BR(K + K − K + ) BR(K − π + π + ) , and the relative Ds+ branching ratios: BR(ΦK + ) BR(Φπ + ) and BR(K + K − K + ) BR(Φπ + ) . The data were accumulated by the Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment E687.

We present the first measurement of the lifetime of the Ω c 0 baryon. The data were collected in the Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment E687. The measured lifetime is τ = 86−20+27(stat.) ± 28(syst.) fr. Thus the Ω c 0 has one of the shorter lifetimes among the weakly decaying singly charmed baryons.

Amplitude analyses of the D+ and Ds+ → K+K−π+ Dalitz plots are presented using data collected by the Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment E687. Our data are fit to a model consisting of a sum of Breit-Wigner amplitudes for the intermediate two-body resonant decay modes. We extract decay fractions and relative phases. These results are used to infer new branching ratios for D+ → K+K−π+ inclusive as well as the Φπ+ and K ∗ (892) 0 K + channels.

We have made a new measurement of the branching ratio Γ(D + → K 0 K + ) Γ(D + → K 0 π + ) and the first measurement of Γ(D + → K 0 K ∗+ ) Γ(D + → K 0 π + ) . The data were accumulated in the 1990–1991 fixed target running period of Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment E687. We measure Γ(D + → K 0 K + ) Γ(D + → K 0 π + ) = 0.25 ± 0.04 ± 0.02 and Γ(D + → K 0 K ∗+ ) Γ(D + → K 0 π + ) = 1.1 ± 0.3 ± 0.4 .

The branching ratios of D 0 → K 0 K 0 and D0 → Ks0Ks0Ks0 relative to D 0 → K 0 π + π − are reported. The data were accumulated in the 1990–1991 fixed target running period of the Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment E687. Γ (D 0 → K 0 K 0 )/Γ (D 0 → K 0 π + π − is measured to be 0.039±0.013±0.013 and Γ (D 0 →K s 0 K s 0 K s 0 )/Γ (D 0 → K 0 π + π − ) is measured to be 0.035±0.012±0.006. We also measure Γ (D 0 → K 0 π + π − /Γ (D 0 → K − π + ) to be 1.61±0.10±0.15.

Analysis of three D → Kππ Dalitz plots is presented using data collected by the Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment E687. Our data are fit to a model consisting of a sum of Breit-Wigner amplitudes for the intermediate two-body resonant decay modes and a constant term for the nonresonant contribution. We extract branching fractions and relative phases and compare them to the results obtained in other experiments. Although this model qualitatively reproduces many features of our data, statistically significant discrepancies are observed in some of our fits.

The fermilab high-energy photoproduction experiment E687 provides a sample of approximately 90 events of the decay mode D+s→ φμ+ ν. The ratios of the form factors governing the decay are measured to be Rv=1.8±0.9±0.2 and R2= 1.1±0.8±0.1, implying a polarization of Г 1 /Г t = 1.0±0.5±0.1 for the electron decay, consistent with our measurement of the form factor for the decay D + → K ∗0 μ + ν .

We report precise measurements of the D 0 and D + meson lifetimes by the E687 Collaboration at Fermilab. The measurements have been made using 16000 fully reconstructed decays of the D 0 into the K − π + and K − π + π − π + final states and 9000 decays of the D + into the K − π + π + final state. The lifetimes of the D 0 and D + mesons are measured to be 0.413±0.004±0.003 ps and 1.048±0.015±01011 ps respectively.

Inelastic {rho}{sup 0} photoproduction in the reaction {gamma}{ital p}{r_arrow}{rho}{sup 0}{pi}{sup +}{ital n} is observed in the peripheral region {vert_bar}{ital t}{sub {gamma},{rho}}{sup 0{prime}}{vert_bar}{lt}0.12 GeV{sup 2}. The data are consistent with the {rho}{sup 0} production being due to a double peripheral mechanism which conserves {ital s}-channel helicity. The {pi}{sup +}{ital n} produced in association with the {rho}{sup 0} is also consistent with the same mechanism, although there is a distortion of the expected angular distributions in the {pi}{sup +}{ital n} mass region of 1.3--1.5 GeV/{ital c}{sup 2}.

We report a measurement of the relative branching ratio of two Cabibbo-suppressed decay modes: D 0 → π − π + and D 0 → K − K + . The data were accumulated in the 1990–1991 fixed target run of Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment E687. The branching ratios of these modes relative to the Cabibbo-allowed decay D 0 → K − π + are also presented. The relative branching ratios are measured to be Γ ( D 0 → KK )/ Γ ( D 0 → ππ ) = 2.53 ± 0.46 ± 0.19, Γ ( D 0 → KK )/ Γ ( D 0 → Kπ ) = 0.109 ± 0.007 ± 0.009, and Γ ( D 0 → ππ )/ Γ ( D 0 → Kπ ) = 0.043 ± 0.007 ± 0.003.

We report evidence for the Cabibbo-suppressed decay of the charm baryon Λ c + into the final state pK − K + . The analysis is performed on data collected by high energy photoproduction experiment E687 during the 1990–1991 Fermilab fixed target run. The branching ratio of the decay Λ c + → pK − K + relative to the non-suppressed Λ c + → pK − π + is measured to be BR( pK − K + / pK − π + ) = 0.096 ± 0.029 ± 0.010. The upper limit of the decay into po relative to the inclusive pK − K + decay is measured to be BR( po / pK − K +

The chemical compatibility of wave length shifting fibers with several liquid scintillators has been investigated. Based on systematic characterization of the behavior of the BC-517 family, a time of life of 70–450 years was estimated for the polystyrene based wave length shifting fiber in BC-517P scintillator. Wavelength shifting (WLS) fibers irradiated continuously to a dose of 6.4 Mrads (at .377 Mrad/hr of 60 Co) were observed to decrease from 100% to 5% transmission; however, after 100 hours of annealing, the transmission increased to 90%. GEANT3 simulations of a simplified calorimeter located behind a BaF 2 electromagnetic calorimeter for the GEM detector at SSC showed that the constant term in the energy resolution will change from 1.8 to 2.9 in five years at 10 34 luminosity for pseudorapidity η=3.

The new detector for data recording by the CLEO collaboration at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring is described. This detector has been designed to optimize studying e+ e− annihilation into hadronic matter at a total energy of 10 GeV. It consists of high precesion charged particle tracking chambers and an electromagnetic calorimeter together with systems for particle identification. The design of the detector and its performance over the first year and a half of operation are presented.

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.

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.

CLEO has measured decay modes of the {ital D}{sup 0} and {ital D}{sup +} into final states consisting of {ital K}{sup {plus minus}}'s, {pi}{sup {plus minus}}'s, {ital K}{sup 0}'s and {ital {bar K}}{sup 0}'s, using data taken with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. We report new results on the decays of {ital D}{sup 0}'s into 4{pi}{sup {plus minus}},{ital K}{sup {minus}}{ital K+}{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup +},{ital {bar K}}{sup 0}{ital K+}{ital K{minus}},{ital {bar K}}{sup 0} {ital K+}{pi}{sup {minus}},{ital K}{sup 0}{ital K{minus}}{pi}{sup +},3{ital K}{sub {ital S}}{sup 0} and {ital {bar K}}{sup 0}{phi} together with some of their resonant substructure. We also present the first observation of the decay {ital D}{sup +}{r arrow}{ital {bar K}}{sup 0}{ital {bar K}0}{ital K+} and give limits on the doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed decays of the {ital D}{sup 0} into {ital K}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}} and {ital K}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}}.

Using the CsI calorimeter of the CLEO II detector, the spin triplet {chi}{sub {ital b}}(2{ital P}) states are observed in {Upsilon}(3{ital S}) radiative decays with much higher statistics than seen in previous experiments. The observed mass splittings are not described well by theoretical models, while the relative branching ratios agree with predictions that include relativistic corrections to the radiative transition rates.

The spin alignment of ${D}^{*+}$ mesons produced in ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ annihilation at $\sqrt{s}=10.5$ GeV is obtained from a study of the angular distribution of the decay ${D}^{*+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{0}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$. The alignment is studied as a function of momentum and compared to theoretical predictions. We find an average value of the spin alignment parameter $\ensuremath{\eta}$ of $〈\ensuremath{\eta}〉=0.04\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.01$. We obtain a model-dependent measurement of the probability of producing a vector particle $〈{P}_{V}〉=0.77\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.01$ for $D$ mesons.

We report results on inclusive production of the charmed baryon ${{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{c}}^{+}$ from ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ annihilations at $\sqrt{s}=10.5$ GeV. Measurements are presented of the inclusive cross section times branching fraction for the continuum production of ${{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{c}}^{+}$ as observed in six different decay modes, and of a new, improved value of the ${{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{c}}^{+}$ mass. The inclusive cross section times the branching fraction into $p{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$ is measured to be 10.0\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.5\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.5 pb summed over all ${x}_{p}$. The branching fractions of ${{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{c}}^{+}$ into $p{\overline{K}}^{0}$, $p{\overline{K}}^{0}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, $\ensuremath{\Lambda}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$, $\ensuremath{\Lambda}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$, and ${\ensuremath{\Xi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{K}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$ relative to that into $p{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$ are measured to be 0.44\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.07\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.05, 0.43\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.12\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.04, 0.18\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.03\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.03, 0.65\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.11\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.12, and 0.15\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.04\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.03, respectively. The ${{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{c}}^{+}$ mass is measured to be 2284.7\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.6\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.7 MeV/${\mathit{c}}^{2}$. The measured momentum distributions for continuum production of ${{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{c}}^{+}$ are compared to analytical fragmentation functions and to other measurements.

We have made measurements of decay modes of neutral {ital D} mesons into exclusive final states containing photons using data collected with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. We report observation of {ital D}{sup 0}{r arrow}{ital K}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup 0} (charge conjugates are implicit), and present new measurements of the branching ratios for {ital D}{sup 0}{r arrow}{ital K}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup 0}, {ital D}{sup 0}{r arrow}{ital {bar K}}{sup 0}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup 0}{pi}{sup {minus}}, {ital D}{sup 0}{r arrow}{ital {bar K}}{sup 0}{pi}{sup 0}, {ital {bar K}}{sup *0}{eta}, and {ital D}{sup 0}{r arrow}{ital {bar K}}{sup 0}{omega}. Where possible, results are compared with theoretical predictions for two-body {ital D}{sup 0} decays.

We have investigated the transitions {Upsilon}(3{ital S}){r arrow}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}}{Upsilon}(1{ital S}), {Upsilon}(3{ital S}){r arrow}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}}{Upsilon}(2{ital S}) and the cascade process {Upsilon}(3{ital S}){r arrow}{Upsilon}(2{ital S})+{ital X},{Upsilon}(2{ital S}){r arrow}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}}{Upsilon}(1{ital S}), both in the exclusive decay mode, with the daughter {Upsilon} state decaying into two leptons, and in the inclusive decay mode, with the daughter {Upsilon} state decaying hadronically. Results are presented on the branching fractions and properties of the {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}} system. The {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}} invariant-mass spectra for the decays {Upsilon}(3{ital S}){r arrow}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}}{Upsilon}(1{ital S}) and {Upsilon}(3{ital S}){r arrow}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}}{Upsilon}(2{ital S}) are measured and compared with theoretical predictions. We also present the results of a search for the {ital h}{sub {ital b}}(1 {sup 1}{ital P}{sub 1}) and {Upsilon}(1 {sup 3}{ital D}) states in inclusive {Upsilon}(3{ital S}) decays, and for the exclusive decay {Upsilon}(3{ital S}){r arrow}{eta}{Upsilon}(1{ital S}).

We report new measurements of the branching fractions {ital B}({ital B}{sup {minus}}{r arrow}{ital D}{sup 0}{ital l{minus}}{bar {nu}}), {ital B}({ital {bar B}}{sup 0}{r arrow}{ital D}{sup +}{ital l{minus}}{bar {nu}}), and {ital B}({ital B}{sup {minus}}{r arrow}{ital D}{sup *0}{ital l{minus}}{bar {nu}}). Combining these results with our previous measurement of {ital B}({ital {bar B}}{sup 0}{r arrow}{ital D}{sup *+}{ital l{minus}}{bar {nu}}), we find that the ratio of semileptonic widths for final states with a vector meson and pseudoscalar meson is (2.6{sub {minus}0.6{minus}0.8}{sup +1.1+1.0}) and the ratio of charged- to neutral-{ital B}-meson lifetimes is (0.89{plus minus}0.19{plus minus}0.13)({ital f}{sub 00}/{ital f}{sub +{minus}}) where ({ital f}{sub 00}/{ital f}{sub +{minus}}) is the ratio of neutral- to charged-{ital B}-meson production at the {Upsilon}(4{ital S}). From the {ital {bar B}}{r arrow}{ital Dl}{sup {minus}}{bar {nu}} branching fraction, we calculate {vert bar}{ital V}{sub {ital c}{ital b}}{vert bar}=0.040{plus minus}0.006 {plus minus}0.006, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic and dominated by the uncertainty in the {ital B}-meson lifetime.
