3. 04/13/02Jianchun (JC) Wang3 Motivation of  b Study See February’s talk by JC/Sheldon   b lifetime, mass precision (current: 9 MeV), absolute branching ratio  Necessary for determining Vcb via  b  c l  Provide input to hadron collider b experiments for Vcb, production rate, etc  … This is possible if the  b  b cross-section is large enough

4. 04/13/02Jianchun (JC) Wang4 Events at  b Threshold  We hope to have 50 pb for  b  b pair production. For the study, we use MC simulated events for this portion.  The contribution from udsc is similar to that of  (4S), with decreasing of cross-section due to CM energy. We use off-resonance data here.  Most of bb events produce B mesons. We use on-4S resonance data ( subtracted by off-resonance data ) for this part, with cross-section adjusted to 200pb.

5. 04/13/02Jianchun (JC) Wang5 Signature of  b Events  It has BB-like event shape ( we require R2<0.2 to reject continuum background).  The  c production rate is very large ( ~ 100% per  b, compared to 6.4% per B). Hence counting number of reconstructed  c is a direct tool.  The proton and lepton production rate is also high, and reconstruction efficiency is big. So requiring both proton and lepton in same event is even better.  We also count number of proton,  and hadronic event in the scan.

15. 04/13/02Jianchun (JC) Wang15 Beam Condition Hello, A few minutes ago we began collecting our first collisions at 5.6 GeV. Luminosity at 268 (10**30) - not too bad for the first fill. Crate 5 on DR went thru major surgery today during access so we are still evaluating its performance. I'll let you know how things go. Dan Dan Cronin-Hennessy message (03/20/02)
