We report measurements of the inclusive electron momentum spectra in decays of charged and neutral B mesons, and of the ratio of semileptonic branching fractions BB ! Xe and BB 0 ! Xe. These were performed on a sample of 231 10 6 B B events recorded with the BABAR detector at the 4S resonance. Events are selected by fully reconstructing a hadronic decay of one B meson and identifying an electron among the decay products of the recoiling B meson. We obtain BB ! Xe=BB 0 !

We present a new high-statistics measurement of the cross section for the process e+e~e+e m. +m at a center-of-mass energy of 29 GeV for invariant pion-pair masses M(m+m ) between 350 MeV/c' and 1.6 GeV/c2. We observe the f~( 1270) and measure its radiative width to be 3. 15+0.0420. 39 keV. We also observe an enhancement in the~+~spectrum near 1 GeV. General agreement is found with unitarized models of the yy~m m. reaction that include finalstate interactions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
