  18. Overview of the analysis  K- K+  - e+ (3770)D0D0 D0K+-, D0K-e+ • Reconstruct one of the two D’s in a hadronic decay channel. It is called a tagging D or a tag. Two key variables in the tagging D reconstruction are: • Reconstruct from theremaining tracks and showers the observable particles in the final state of a semileptonic decay. • Define an observable that can be used to separate signal and background as where Emiss and Pmiss are the missing energy and momentum in the event, approximating the neutrino E and P. The signal peaks at zero in U. • Branching fractions are obtained as Obtained from Fits toU Obtained from Fits toMbc Selected Topics on Open Charm Physics from CLEO-c

  26. Two Fitting Methods: Fit A and Fit B • The observed decay rate is related to the true decay rate in the following way: in terms of Acceptance and Smearing functions. The fit has to take into account both effects. We have developed and tested two types of fits. • Fit A is a fit to efficiency-corrected and absolutely-normalized d/dq2distributions. This fit is a good match for CLEO-c data as the q2 resolution is excellent. Fit A is our primary fit as the main goal of our analysis is to obtain d/dq2 and f+(q2). • Fit B is a fit to the observed decay rate according to a procedure described in D.M.Schmidt, R.J.Morrison and M.S.Witherell in Nucl. Instr. and Meth. A328 547(1993).The technique makes possible a (multidimensional) fit to variables modified by experimental acceptance and resolution. This method has been used by CLEO several times before, for example, to measure form factor ratios in ce and BD*l. • Both fitting methods were tested using large Monte Carlo samples. Two fits provide cross-checks. Selected Topics on Open Charm Physics from CLEO-c

  27. Fit A: a 2 fit to efficiency corrected d/dq2 • A brief description of the procedure for making Fit A: • Create an N x N efficiency matrix, where N is the number of q2 bins • Invert the efficiency matrix • Measure raw background subtracted q2 distributions • Use the inverted efficiency matrix to obtain efficiency-corrected and absolutely-normalized d/dq2 (or the form factor) • We make fits for form factor parameters to efficiency-corrected and absolutely-normalized d/dq2 (or the form factor), using the 2 fitter which includes both statistical and systematic errors (with correlations) : • bin migrations, background uncertainty, and efficiency corrections. - the decay rate estimated from a form factor - the correlation matrix - the decay rate • The low number of events in the high q2 bins can lead to biases in 2 fits, we find that the Bias, if any, is SMALL [~0.10(stat. data) ] Selected Topics on Open Charm Physics from CLEO-c

  35. Confidence levels (Data) • The confidence levels for fits with 2 parameters : • The confidence levels for all models are comparable since the shape parameters are floated. The fit results for the form factor shape parameter do not necessarily agree with the model predictions. Form factor shape parameters in the data for ISGW2 are inconsistent with the model predictions Selected Topics on Open Charm Physics from CLEO-c

  36. Systematic Uncertainties for Form Factor Shape Parameters • Systematic effects that are independent of q2 do not change the decay rate shape and are negligible • Systematic effects correlated with the hadron (K/KS//0) momentum, change the decay rate distribution and lead to significant systematic uncertainties Kaon momentum vs q2 PK(GeV) eff Kaon ID efficiency q2 (GeV) PK ~ 100MeV Few events Lepton momentum vs q2 Our studies indicate that the total systematic uncertainty is much smaller than the statistical uncertainty for each semileptonic mode Pe(GeV) This correlation is not strong as the hadron momentum correlation q2 (GeV) Selected Topics on Open Charm Physics from CLEO-c
