11 24th June 2005U.Kerzel, University of Karlsruhe Beauty200511 The m(  +  - ) mass spectrum Distribution of m(  +  - ) constrains quantum numbers J PC shape depends on: decay of (  +  - ) sub-system: (  +  - ) in s,p,d wave (i.e. intermediate sub-resonances or not) relative angular momentum between (  +  - ) and (  +  - ) (and detector acceptance, efficiency, etc.) e.g. for decay chain: X ! J/  ,  !  +  - for broad resonances (kinematic factors vary across width) form-factor

12 24th June 2005U.Kerzel, University of Karlsruhe Beauty200512 The m(  +  - ) mass spectrum Challenge: Large background, rather low X(3872) yield ) sideband-subtraction difficult, instead: “slicing technique” impose bin borders in m(  +  - ) as additional cuts fit resulting (    -  +  - ) mass spectrum obtained yield shows variation with m(  +  - ) need to be careful at kinematic borders

13 24th June 2005U.Kerzel, University of Karlsruhe Beauty200513 The m(  +  - ) mass spectrum if (  +  - ) in S-wave state: ) shape needs to be modelled compare to multipole expansions if (  +  - ) form sub-resonance: ) shape follows Breit-Wigner e.g. decay via  0 !  +  - (no kinematics, form-factor here) m(  +  - ) favours high end of mass spectrum ) compatible with intermediate  0 !  +  - resonance also 3 S 1 multipole-expansion for charmonium possible no charmonium candidate at that mass 3 S 1 also has J PC = 1 – ) non-observation by BES (  (e + e - )B(  +  - J/  ) < 10 eV @90% C.L. ) notation: n 2s+1 L J (J PC ) hep-ph/0310261

27 24th June 2005U.Kerzel, University of Karlsruhe Beauty200527 Systematics for measuring fraction from B mass window shift window at fixed width of 130 MeV/c 2 vary width of mass window: 50-250 MeV/c 2 fit model vary parameterisations, e.g. 2 Gaussians instead of 1, etc. (negligible for X(3872)) multiple candidates (L xy dominated from J/  decay) randomly select one candidate take highest/lowest p t candidate take candidate with largest m(  +  - ) take candidate with smallest error on L xy take candidate with lowest  2 in vertex fit fit bias generate many pseudo-experiments (Toy-MC) from original fit define pulls and check for deviations from Gaussian at zero
