Observations of π-B charge-flavor correlations and resonant Bπ and BK production
Abstract
Evidence is presented for kinematic and charge correlations of B mesons with charged pions and kaons. Using a new technique, a sample of over 80 000 partially reconstructed B mesons is obtained in 3.5·106 hadronic Z0 decays recorded using the OPAL detector at LEP. The invariant mass distributions of B+π− and B+K− combinations show enhancements consistent with the decays of P-wave resonances of a b antiquark and a light quark. We observe an …
