Abstract
Using about 3.9 million hadronic Z decays from e+e−collisions recorded by the OPAL detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies s≈MZ, the branching ratio for the decay D−s→τ−ν̄τhas been measured to be BR(D−s→τ−ν̄τ)=(7.0±2.1(stat)±2.0(syst))%.This result can be used to derive the decay constant of the D−smeson: fDs=(286±44(stat)±41(syst))MeV.
