Measurement of the ratio of B+ and B-0 meson lifetimes

• The ratio of the B+ and B-0 meson lifetimes was measured using data collected in 2002-2004 by the D0 experiment in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. These mesons were reconstructed in B→μ(+)ν D*-X decays, which are dominated by B-0 and B→μ(+)ν(D) over bar X-0 decays, which are dominated by B+. The ratio of lifetimes is measured to be τ(+)/τ(0)=1.080± 0.016(stat)± 0.014(syst).
