Abstract

The production rates of the orbitally excited Ds** mesons, Ds1± and Ds2*±, are measured with the 4.1 million hadronic Z decays recorded by the ALEPH detector during 1991-1995. The Ds** mesons are reconstructed in the decay modes Ds1+ → D*+K0, Ds1+ → D*0K+ and Ds2*+ → D0K+. The production rate of the Ds1± is measured to be f(Z → Ds1±) = (0.52 ± 0.09 ± 0.06)%, under the assumption that the two considered decay modes of the Ds1± saturate the branching ratio. The production rate of the Ds2*± is determined to be f(Z → Ds2*±) = (0.83 ± 0.29-0.13+0.07)%, assuming that the branching fraction of the decay Ds2*+ → D0K+ is 45%. The production rates in Z → cc̄ and Z → bb̄ decays are measured separately. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
