Impact of leptonic tau decays on the distribution of anti B → Dμ anti ν

Description

We present results for the decay rate of anti B → Dτ(→ μ anti νν) anti ν, which is a sizeable background to anti B → Dμ anti ν decays. In particular, we calculate analytically the differential decay rate with respect to all seven kinematic variables. We consider the impact of this decay on the distributions of anti B → Dμ anti ν in either the muon helicity angle or the muon energy in the anti B rest frame. Our numerical results are obtained from Monte Carlo pseudo events. Finally, we provide necessary information for cross checks of the experimental analyses.
