Using the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron-positron Storage Ring, we have measured the scaled momentum spectra, dsigma/dx_p, and the inclusive production cross sections of the charm mesons D+, D0, D*+, and D*0 in e+e- annihilation at about 10.5 GeV center of mass energy, excluding the decay products of B mesons. The statistical accuracy and momentum resolution are superior to previous measurements at this energy.

Total cross sections for D production from the various decay modes. The data are fully corrected for detection efficiency and decay branching ratios. The second DSYS error is the error due to the uncertainty in the branching ratio.

Differential cross sections for D+ production from the (K- PI+ PI+) decay mode.

Differential cross sections for D0 production from the (K- PI+) decay mode.

Charm Production in Nonresonant e+ e- Annihilations at s**(1/2) = 10.55-GeV

We report results on the differential and total cross sections for inclusive production of the charmed particles D*+, D*0, D0, D+, Ds, and Λc in e+e− annihilations at √s=10.55 GeV. Widely used quark fragmentation models are discussed and compared with the measured charmed-particle momentum distributions. This comparison, as well as that with measurements at other center-of-mass energies, shows the need to take QCD corrections into account and their importance for a correct interpretation of the model parameters. The observed rate of D0 and D+ production is compared to the expected total charm production cross section. We measure the probability of a charmed meson being produced as a vector meson and the D*+ decay branching fraction into D0π+.

Inclusive Production of $D$ and $K$ Mesons in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation

We present measurements of the cross section for inclusive D and K meson production in e + e − annihilation in the center of mass energy range 3.6 to 5.8 GeV. D production accounts for most of the increase in the total cross section for hadron production in e + e − annihilation at energies above 4 GeV.
