Observation and properties of the orbitally excited B-s2* meson

We report the direct observation of the excited L=1 state Bs2* in fully reconstructed decays to B+K-. The mass of the Bs2* meson is measured to be 5839.6±1.1(stat)±0.7(syst)MeV/c2, and its production rate relative to the B+ meson is measured to be [1.15±0.23(stat)±0. 13(syst)]%. © 2008 The American...
