A study of D∗±-production in Z0 decays
Abstract
In this paper an investigation of the production of D∗± mesons produced in e+e− collisions at energies around the Z0 pole is presented. Based on 115 D∗± mesons with xD∗ 2ED∗/Ecm > 0.2 the properties of D∗ mesons produced in the reaction Z0 → cc are studied. Fixing the yield and the fragmentation function of bottom quarks to the values obtained at LEP using lepton tags, and average energy fraction of the D∗± mesons from primary charmed quarks …
