MEASUREMENT OF THE RATIO B(B- --> D*0 K-)/B(B- --> D*0 π-) AND THE CP-ASYMMETRY OF B- --> D*0(CP+) K- DECAYS WITH THE BABAR DETECTOR

Description

The authors present a study of the decays B- --> D*0π- and B- --> D*0K-, where the D*0 decays into D0π0, with the D0 reconstructed in the CP eigenstates K-K+ and π-π+ and in the (non-CP) channels K-π+, K-π+π+π-, and K-π+π0. They use an unbinned maximum likelihood fit to measure the signal yields. Using a sample of about 123 million Υ(4S) decays into B(bar B) pairs, they measure the ratios of decay rates
