Measurement of the pseudoscalar decay constant f(Ds) using charm-tagged events in e(+)e(-) collisions at root s=10.58.GeV

Using 230.2fb-1 of e+e- annihilation data collected with the BABAR detector at and near the peak of the Υ(4S) resonance, 489±55 events containing the pure leptonic decay Ds+→μ+νμ have been isolated in charm-tagged events. The ratio of partial widths Γ(Ds+→μ+νμ) /Γ(Ds+→ π+) is measured to be 0.143±0....
