Averages of b-hadron, c-hadron, and $$\tau $$-lepton properties as of 2018: Heavy Flavor Averaging Group (HFLAV)

Abstract This paper reports world averages of measurements of b -hadron, c -hadron, and $$\tau $$ τ -lepton properties obtained by the Heavy Flavour Averaging Group using results available through September 2018. In rare cases, significant results obtained several months later are also used. For the averaging, common input parameters used in the various analyses are adjusted (rescaled) to common values, and known correlations are taken into account. The averages include branching fractions, lifetimes, neutral meson mixing parameters, $$C\!P$$ C P violation parameters, parameters of semileptonic decays, and Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix elements.

Averages of b -hadron, c -hadron, and τ-lepton properties as of summer 2016

Here, this article reports world averages of measurements of b-hadron, c-hadron, and τ-lepton properties obtained by the Heavy Flavor Averaging Group using results available through summer 2016. For the averaging, common input parameters used in the various analyses are adjusted (rescaled) to common values, and known correlations are taken into account. The averages include branching fractions, lifetimes, neutral meson mixing parameters, $C\!P$ violation parameters, parameters of semileptonic decays, and Cabbibo–Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix elements.

Study of excited Ξ c states decaying into Ξ c 0 and Ξ c + baryons

Here, with a data sample of 980 fb - 1 of e + e - annihilation data taken with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e + e - collider, we discuss the results of a study of excited Ξ c states that decay, via the emission of photons and/or charged pions, into Ξ c 0 or Ξ c + ground state charmed-strange baryons. We present new measurements of the masses of all members of the Ξ c ' , Ξ c ( 2645 ) , Ξ c ( 2790 ) , Ξ c ( 2815 ) , and Ξ c ( 2980 ) isodoublets, measurements of the intrinsic widths of those that decay strongly, and evidence of previously unknown transitions.

Amplitude analyses of the decays χ c1 →ηπ⁺π⁻ and χ c1 →η'π⁺π⁻

Using a data sample of 2.59×10⁷ ψ(2S) decays obtained with the CLEO-c detector, we perform amplitude analyses of the complementary decay chains ψ(2S)→γχ c1 ; χ c1 →ηπ⁺π⁻ and ψ(2S)→γχ c1 ; χ c1 →η'π⁺π⁻. We find evidence for an exotic P-wave η'π amplitude, which, if interpreted as a resonance, would have parameters consistent with the π₁(1600) state reported in other production mechanisms. We also make the first observation of the decay a₀(980)→η'π and measure the ratio of branching fractions B(a₀(980)→η'π)/B(a₀(980)→ηπ)=0.064±0.014±0.014. The ππ spectrum produced with a recoiling η is compared to that with η' recoil.
