Measurement of e + e – → γ χ c J via initial state radiation at Belle

The process e + e – → γχ cJ (J = 1, 2) is studied via initial state radiation using 980 fb –1 of data at and around the Υ(nS) (n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) resonances collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e + e – collider. Here, no significant signal is observed except from ψ(2S) decays. Upper limits on the cross sections between √s = 3.80 and 5.56 GeV are determined at the 90% credibility level, which range from a few pb to a few tens of pb. We also set upper limits on the decay rate of the vector charmonium [ψ(4040), ψ(4160), and ψ(4415)] and charmoniumlike [Y(4260), Y(4360), and Y(4660)] states to γχ cJ .

Measurement of the decay B → D ℓ ν ℓ in fully reconstructed events and determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element | V c b |

We present a determination of the magnitude of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |Vcb| using the decay B → Dℓν ℓ (ℓ = e,μ) based on 711 fb –1 of e + e – → Υ(4S) data recorded by the Belle detector and containing 772 × 10 6 BB¯ pairs. Here, one B meson in the event is fully reconstructed in a hadronic decay mode, while the other, on the signal side, is partially reconstructed from a charged lepton and either a D + or D 0 meson in a total of 23 hadronic decay modes. The isospin-averaged branching fraction of the decay B → Dℓν ℓ is found to be B(B 0 → D – ℓ + ν ℓ ) = (2.31 ± 0.03(stat) ± 0.11(syst))%. Analyzing the differential decay rate as a function of the hadronic recoil with the parametrization of Caprini, Lellouch, and Neubert and using the form-factor prediction G(1) = 1.0541 ± 0.0083 calculated by FNAL/MILC, we obtain η EW |V cb | = (40.12 ± 1.34) × 10 –3 , where ηEW is the electroweak correction factor. Alternatively, assuming the model-independent form-factor parametrization of Boyd, Grinstein, and Lebed and using lattice QCD data from the FNAL/MILC and HPQCD collaborations, we find η EW |V cb | = (41.10 ± 1.14) × 10 –3 .
