5/25/2004 AN     D** mass resolution in MC

MC may be biased to lower pt value becasue the trigger efficiencies  are not taken into account. To correct for this we can apply
scaling (weights while filling histograms). The plot below shows the ratio of Pt (lepton) distributions for tight mu D0 candidates in MC and data
(i.e. MC distribution is divided by data distribution). The dependence can be described by exp+const.


D**(2420) mass before and after scaling


D**(2420) fit with relativistic Breit-Wigner from PDG. BW is convoluted with a gaussian. Amplitude, mass, BW width
and gaussian sigma were free parameters of the fit. MC uses PDG values for mass and width (2.422 GeV and 19 MeV).
It looks the width of BW correlates with sigma of gaussian.


D**(2460) fit with relativistic Breit-Wigner from PDG. BW is convoluted with a gaussian. Amplitude, mass, BW width
and gaussian sigma were free parameters of the fit.



11/17/2003 AN     D** study in MC

used MC B-> muon + D0 (->K pion) + X  (requests 8681 and 8949) + standard D0 particles with no additional cuts. total # of entries = 27460. each entry has a reconstructed D0 candidate. Total # of reconstructed B->l D0 matched to MC particles is 25633. in the below table no oscillation was required for B0.

k-factor is defined as Pt (reco'ed D(*)+muon) / Pt (MC B). Distributions of the k-factors for 4 most important cases is shown below



Here are the text files with the above four histograms. the format is the following
 (bin #, left edge of the bin, right edge of the bin, content of the bin) :
B+ -> D0 or D*0
B0 -> D*-
B -> D** -> D0
