Abstract

Using a sample of four million hadronic Z events collected in ALEPH from 1991 to 1995, the decays D*⁺ → D⁰π⁺_s, with D⁰ decaying to K^- π⁺ or to K⁺ π^-, are studied. The relative branching ratio B(D⁰ → K⁺ π^-)/B(D⁰ → K^- π⁺) is measured to be (1.84±0.59(stat.) ±0.34(syst.))%. The two possible contributions to the D⁰ → K⁺ π^- decay, doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays and D⁰-D̄⁰ mixing, are disentangled by measuring the proper-time distribution of the reconstructed D^0,s. Assuming no interference between the two processes, the upper limit obtained on the mixing rate is 0.92% at 95% CL. The possible effect of interference between the two amplitudes is also assessed.

N2 - Using a sample of four million hadronic Z events collected in ALEPH from 1991 to 1995, the decays D*+ → D0π+s, with D0 decaying to K- π+ or to K+ π-, are studied. The relative branching ratio B(D0 → K+ π-)/B(D0 → K- π+) is measured to be (1.84±0.59(stat.) ±0.34(syst.))%. The two possible contributions to the D0 → K+ π- decay, doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays and D0-D̄0 mixing, are disentangled by measuring the proper-time distribution of the reconstructed D0,s. Assuming no interference between the two processes, the upper limit obtained on the mixing rate is 0.92% at 95% CL. The possible effect of interference between the two amplitudes is also assessed.
