Measurement of inclusive baryon production inB meson decays

Abstract

Using the ARGUS detector at thee + e storage ring DORIS II at DESY, we have studiedB meson decays into baryonsp and Λ. From the simultaneous analysis ofp and Λ yields,p \(\bar p\) and Λ\(\bar p\) correlations, and various lepton-baryon and lepton-baryon-antibaryon correlations the inclusive branching ratio is found to be BR (B→baryons)=(6.8±0.5±0.3)%.
