Direct measurement of the decays of charmed D mesons
Description
Charmed D mesons produced in the decay of the Psi(3770) are observed by the Mark III detector at SPEAR. A new technique is applied to these data to drive D branching fractions which do not rely on the measurement of D production cross sections. Measurements are presented for the three decay modes of the D0 (K-π+, K-π-π+π and K-π+π0) and four decay modes of the D+ (K-π+π+, K-π+π+π0, K/sub S/0π+ and K/sub s/0π+π0). The resulting branching fractions are significantly larger than previous measurements
