Observation of exclusive B D(*) K*<sup>-</sup> decays - Texas A&M University (TAMU) Scholar

The exclusive decays B D(*)K*-, using 9.66 106 BB pairs collected at the (4S) with the CLEO detector was reported. Some branching fractions were measured such as (B- D0K*-) = (6.1 1.6 1.7) 10-4. It was found that the B D*K*- branching ratios were averages of those corresponding to the 00 and 11 helicity states.
