Measurement of the relative branching fraction of gamma r(4S) to charged and neutral B-meson pairs
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-03)We analyze 9.7 X 10(6) B (B) over bar pairs recorded with the CLEO detector to determine the production ratio of charged to neutral B-meson pairs produced at the Y(4S) resonance. We measure the rates for B-0 --> J/psiK((*)0) ... -
Measurement of the Lambda(+)(c) lifetime
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-03)The Lambda (+)(c) lifetime is measured using 9.0 fb(-1) of e(+)e(-) annihilation data collected on or just below the Y (4S) resonance with the CLEO ILV detector at CESR. Using an unbinned maximum likelihood fit, the Lambda ... -
Improved measurement of vertical bar V-cb vertical bar using (B)over-bar -> D(*)l(nu)over-bar decays
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2002-08)We determine the weak coupling \V-cb\ between the b and c quarks using a sample of 3x10(6) B (B) over bar events in the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. We determine the yield of reconstructed (B) over ... -
Hadronic mass moments in inclusive semileptonic B meson decays
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-12)We have measured the first and second moments of the hadronic mass-squared distribution in B --> X(c)l nu, for P-lepton > 1.5 GeV/c. We find (M-x(2) - (M) over bar (2)(D)) = 0.251 +/- 0.066 GeV2, ((M-X(2) - (M-X(2))(2)) = ... -
Experimental investigation of the two-photon widths of the chi(c0) and the chi(c2) mesons
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-08)Using 12.7 fb(-1) of data collected with the CLEO detector at CESR, we observed two-photon production of the c (c) over bar states chi (c0) and chi (c2) in their decay to pi (+)pi (-)pi (+)pi (-). We measured Gamma (gamma ... -
Observation of new states decaying into Lambda(+)(c)pi(-)pi(+)
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-05)Using 13.7 fb(-1) of data recorded by the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we investigate the spectrum of charmed baryons which decay into Lambda (+)(c)pi (-)pi (+) and are more massive than the Lambda ... -
Search for the decay Y(1S) - gamma eta '
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-10)We report on a search for the radiative decay Y(1S) --> gamma eta' in 61.3 pb(-1) of data taken with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. Three decay chains were investigated, all involving eta' --> ... -
Bounds on the CP asymmetry in b -> s gamma decays
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-06)We have measured the CP asymmetry A(CP) equivalent to [Gamma (b --> sy) - Gamma((b) over bar --> ($) over bar gamma)]/[Gamma (b --> s gamma) + Gamma((b) over bar --> (s) over bar gamma)] to be A(CP) = (-0.079 +/- 0.108 +/- ... -
Study of tau decays to six pions and a neutrino
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-05)The tau decays to six-pion final states have been studied with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. The measured branching fractions are B(tau (-) --> 2 pi (-)pi (-)3 pi (0)nu (tau)) = (2.2 +/- 0.3 +/- ... -
Bounds on the CP asymmetry in like-sign dileptons from B-0(B)over-bar(0) meson decays
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-05)We have measured the charge asymmetry in like-sign dilepton yields from B-0(B) over bar (0) meson decays using the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. We find a(ll)(0) drop [N(l(+)l(+))-N(l(-)l(-))]/[N(l(+)l(+)) ... -
Evidence of new states decaying into Xi*(c)pi
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-05)Using 13.7 fb(-1) of data recorded by the CLEO detector at Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we report evidence of two new charmed baryons: one decaying into Xi (0 ')(c)pi (+) with the subsequent decay Xi (0)(c)' --> Xi ... -
Observation of B ->phi K and B ->phi K
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-04)We have studied two-body charmless hadronic decays of R mesons into the final states phiK and phiK(*). Using 9.7 million B (B) over bar pairs collected with the CLEO II detector, we observe the decays B- --> phiK(-) and ... -
Observation af the Omega(0)(c) charmed baryon at CLEO
(AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOC, 2001-04)The CLEO experiment at the CESR, collider has used 13.7 fb(-1) of data to search for the production of the Omega (0)(c) (css ground state) in e(+)e(-) collisions at roots similar or equal to 10.6 GeV. The modes used to ... -
Open Access and Institutional Repositories: Making Scholarship Global

Slavic *jazditi ‘to ride’ and its implications for the development of the category of (in)determinacy
(Maribor: Slavistično društvo; Ljubljana: ZRC SAZU, 2006)This paper presents a fresh look at the etymology of the Slavic verb *jazditi ‘ride’ and discusses implications for the rise of the category of determinacy-indeterminacy in the verbs of motion in Slavic which follow from ... -
