Measurement of branching fraction ratios for B + → D *+ D − K + , B + → D *− D + K + , and B 0 → D *− D 0 K + decays

A measurement of four branching-fraction ratios for three-body decays of B mesons involving two open-charm hadrons in the final state is presented. Run 1 and Run 2 pp collision data are used, recorded by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies 7, 8, and 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrat...

Description
Summary:A measurement of four branching-fraction ratios for three-body decays of B mesons involving two open-charm hadrons in the final state is presented. Run 1 and Run 2 pp collision data are used, recorded by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies 7, 8, and 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1. The measured branching-fraction ratios areBB+→D∗+D−K+BB+→D¯0D0K+=0.517±0.015±0.013±0.011,BB+→D∗−D+K+BB+→D¯0D0K+=0.577±0.016±0.013±0.013,BB0→D∗−D0K+BB0→D−D0K+=1.754±0.028±0.016±0.035,BB+→D∗+D−K+BB+→D∗−D+K+=0.907±0.033±0.014,$$ {\displaystyle \begin{array}{c}\frac{\mathcal{B}\left({B}^{+}\to {D}^{\ast +}{D}^{-}{K}^{+}\right)}{\mathcal{B}\left({B}^{+}\to {\overline{D}}^0{D}^0{K}^{+}\right)}=0.517\pm 0.015\pm 0.013\pm 0.011,\\ {}\frac{\mathcal{B}\left({B}^{+}\to {D}^{\ast -}{D}^{+}{K}^{+}\right)}{\mathcal{B}\left({B}^{+}\to {\overline{D}}^0{D}^0{K}^{+}\right)}=0.577\pm 0.016\pm 0.013\pm 0.013,\\ {}\begin{array}{c}\frac{\mathcal{B}\left({B}^0\to {D}^{\ast -}{D}^0{K}^{+}\right)}{\mathcal{B}\left({B}^0\to {D}^{-}{D}^0{K}^{+}\right)}=1.754\pm 0.028\pm 0.016\pm 0.035,\\ {}\frac{\mathcal{B}\left({B}^{+}\to {D}^{\ast +}{D}^{-}{K}^{+}\right)}{\mathcal{B}\left({B}^{+}\to {D}^{\ast -}{D}^{+}{K}^{+}\right)}=0.907\pm 0.033\pm 0.014,\end{array}\end{array}} $$
