Production rate of bb(bar) quark pairs from gluons and bb(bar)bb(bar) events in hadronic Z Decays
The OPAL collaboration, G. Abbiendi
The rates are measured per hadronic Z decay for gluon splitting to bb(bar) quark pairs, g_bb, and of events containing two bb(bar) quark pairs, g_4b, using a sample of four-jet eve…
Measurement of the B0 Lifetime and Oscillation Frequency using B0->D*+l-v decays
The OPAL collaboration, G. Abbiendi
The lifetime and oscillation frequency of the B0 meson has been measured using B0->D*+l-v decays recorded on the Z0 peak with the OPAL detector at LEP. The D*+ -> D0pi+ decays were…
First Measurement of the Inclusive Branching Ratio of b Hadrons to phi Mesons in Z0 Decays
The OPAL collaboration, G. Abbiendi
The inclusive production rate of phi mesons from the decay of b hadrons produced in Z0 decays was measured to be Br(b->phi+X) = 0.0282+-0.0013(stat.)+-0.0019(syst.), using data col…
A measurement of the tau mass and the first CPT test with tau leptons
G. Abbiendi, the OPAL collaboration
We measure the mass of the tau lepton to be 1775.1+-1.6(stat)+-1.0(syst.) MeV using tau pairs from Z0 decays. To test CPT invariance we compare the masses of the positively and neg…
Photonic events with missing energy in e+e- collisions at sqrt(s)=189 GeV
G. Abbiendi, the OPAL collaboration
Photonic events with large missing energy have been observed in e+e- collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 189GeV using the OPAL detector at LEP. Results are presented for event…
Z boson pair production in e+e- collisions at sqrt(s) = 183 and 189 GeV
The OPAL collaboration, G. Abbiendi
A study of Z boson pair production in e+e- annihilation at center-of-mass energies near 183 GeV and 189 GeV is reported. Final states containing only leptons, (l+l-l+l- and l+l-nu…
