observation of B-s(0) -> D-s*(-) pi(+) and B-s(0) -> D-s(*)(-)s rho(+) and Measurement of the B-s(0) -> D-s*(-) rho(+) Longitudinal Polarization Fraction

Abstract

First observations of the B_s0->D_s*- pi+, B_s0->D_s- rho+ and B_s0->D_s*- rho+ decays are reported together with measurements of their branching fractions: B(B_s0->D_s*- pi+)=(2.4 +0.5-0.4(stat.) +-0.3(syst.) +-0.4(fs))x10^(-3), B(Bs->D_s- rho+)=(8.5 +1.3-1.2(stat.) +-1.1(syst.) +-1.3(fs))x10^(-3) and B(Bs->D_s*- rho+)=(11.8 +2.2-2.0(stat.) +-1.7(syst.) +-1.8(fs))x10^(-3) (f_s=N(B_s(*)B_s(*)-bar)/N(b b-bar)). From helicity-angle distributions, we measured the longitudinal pol
