I. INTRODUCTION

where the semileptonic and nonleptonic pieces are

Over the last ten years, methods have been developed to describe the decays of heavy hadrons within a framework based on the heavy mass expansion of QCD. Using this approach, model dependences have been drastically reduced. The heavy mass expansion has been formulated for exclusive as well as for inclusive decays. While in the former case the heavy mass expansion is the well-known formalism of heavy quark effective theory 共HQET兲 关1兴, the latter case additionally requires a short distance expansion 共SDE兲 关2兴 which is very similar to the operator product expansion 共OPE兲 used for deep inelastic scattering. Both approaches are QCD based methods and have a good theoretical foundation. However, nothing comparable exists for a theoretical description of one-particle inclusive decays such as B→ h D X or h B→ K X. Unlike the fully inclusive case, the expression for the rate always involves a projection on a specific particle, thereby spoiling a straightforward short distance expansion. The semileptonic case has been discussed in 关3兴, and the present paper is devoted to a study of the nonleptonic decays. ¯ X and We shall concentrate on decays of the form B→D B→DX. These decays have already been considered long ago in the context of models 关4兴. Here we aim at a QCD description and exploit the heavy mass limit for both the b and the c quark. Furthermore we shall use the large-N C limit to factorize the hadronic matrix element. In this way we can identify the parts which allow a short distance expansion. The remaining contributions have to be parametrized and we shall discuss simple forms of this parametrization. We first discuss the right charm contribution arising from quark level b→cX decays and the wrong charm contribution ¯ X separately. After recalling some facts arising from b→c about the phenomenology of h D mesons in Sec. IV, we predict rates and spectra for various decay channels in Sec. V. Finally we compare the results with existing data. II. THE EFFECTIVE HAMILTONIAN AND THE RIGHT CHARM CONTRIBUTION

O 1,2 and P 1,2 are the current-current operators, and O 3...6 are the QCD penguin operators. For a full list of operators, see, e.g., the review 关5兴. We shall only consider the Cabibbofavored decays and neglect penguin contributions.

C 1 and C 2 are the Wilson coefficients encoding the short distance physics and T a are the generators of color-SU共3兲. The operators O 1 and O 2 as well as the semileptonic Hamiltonian H (sl) e f f contribute to right charm transitions only, while P 1 and P 2 contribute to both right and wrong charm processes. It is well known that in the large-N C limit the matrix elements of the four-fermion operators factorize into products of two current matrix elements 关6兴. Factorization has also been investigated on a phenomenological basis and found to work well for exclusive nonleptonic decays of B mesons 关7兴. The contributions of O 2 and P 2 vanish in the factorization limit since the currents are color octets. Furthermore, the coefficient C 1 differs from unity only through radiative corrections which are very small and will be neglected.

For sufficiently large Q this quantity has a short distance expansion in inverse powers of Q. However, the momentum Q is not a measurable kinematical quantity. In particular, it is not equal to the recoil M, but in most of the phase space, it should be of the same order as M, namely O(m b ⫺m c ). Close to the nonrecoil point, M is large, corresponding to either large Q or a large momentum of the gluon depicted in Fig. 1. While in the former case the OPE treatment is justified, the latter case could be treated perturbatively. In other words, the two expansion parameters for the total rate are ⌳ QCD /(m b ⫺m c ) and ␣ s (m c )/ ␲ . However we also consider the momentum spectra of the h D mesons. In that case the expansion parameter depends on the energy of the h D meson since

where the remaining indices are light quark indices which have to be contracted using the most general four-index object.

For the semileptonic case the charge of the the lepton tags the b flavor of the decaying B meson. Wrong charm semileptonic decays are suppressed by the large charm mass and will be ignored in our discussion. Off the heavy mass limit the degeneracy between h D and h D * mesons is removed. In fact the mass difference is large enough to allow strong decays into pions. Thus the rate for ¯ mesons is the sum of a direct contribution and decays into D the contribution arising from the decay chain B→ h D *X ⬘ →h D X. In the narrow width approximation, the latter is obtained by weighting the rate for B→ h D * X by the branching ratios D * →DY where Y is either a pion or a photon.

Assuming equal rates for the pseudoscalar mesons and for each polarization state of the vector mesons, the naive expectations for these two ratios are r S ⫽3 and r Q ⫽3. D meApart from the ground states h D and h D * , excited h sons may be produced in B meson decays. Even in the heavy mass limit a finite splitting to the ground state mesons remains, which means that these states will decay into h D or h * D . In order to analyze decays into higher resonances, one would need to study the state 兩 X 典 , which we take fully inclusive. Thus we may rely on parton hadron duality to obtain a correct description of the h D and h D * production up to leading order in the heavy mass expansion. Charmed mesons can also be produced via charmonium intermediate states. These states show up in the invariant mass distribution d⌫/dm DD¯ as more or less pronounced resonances. The distribution d⌫/dm cc¯ is certainly different, but by global parton hadron duality and the assumption that all charm quarks hadronize into h D mesons, their integrals are equal, so the charmonium contributions are included in our calculation.

Since the exclusive semileptonic decays are spectatorlike and since in the limit of factorization, the matrix elements of the heavy quark current are the same in the semi- and nonleptonic cases, dominance of spectatorlike decays is a natural assumption for the nonleptonic right charm case as well.

vector h D mesons are connected by heavy quark spin symmetry, this large discrepancy is difficult to understand. Although the effect is less pronounced than the spin counting problem, neutral h D mesons tend to occur slightly more often than expected, see Table III. Assuming the measured value for the spin counting ratio r S , the measured charge counting ratios r Q are generally one or two standard deviations above expectations. If confirmed, this kind of effect would point to an additional contribution which could for instance arise from a nonfactorizing topology as depicted in Fig. 3. Nevertheless, current data are still consistent with the relation 共46兲 between charge and spin counting, see the fit in Table II. Another piece of information for these decays are the h D momentum spectra. These have been measured by ARGUS 关13兴 and CLEO 关14兴, we use the data from CLEO which is more recent and more precise. The spectra are momentum distributions in the rest frame of the ⌼(4S). However, the effect of the motion of the B mesons produces only a negligible smearing of these spectra, and we can safely ignore this effect here. In Fig. 4 we compare the data obtained by CLEO 关14兴 with our theoretical prediction. The spectra show that there is indeed a problem with the ratio of pseudoscalar to vector mesons. Using the saturation assumption in Eq. 共47兲, the spectra of the vector mesons are described within experimental uncertainties and the problem appears with the low momentum region of the decay spectra for the pseudoscalar mesons. Our theoretical ansatz, especially the SDE, should work best in this region of small h D momentum. In addition, the shape of the spectra in this region is mainly determined by phase space, which yields a 2 for small p D and constant matrix behavior proportional to p D element. The steep rise of the momentum spectra for the pseudoscalar h D mesons is thus difficult to understand. An investigation of slow direct pseudoscalar h D mesons, i.e., those that do not originate from intermediate h D * vector mesons, would be desirable. This problem appears to be limited to nonleptonic decays. ¯ meson momentum In Fig. 5 we compare the semileptonic D spectrum measured by CLEO 关10兴 with the theoretical predictions from 关3兴 as well as with the sum of the first six contributing exclusive channels 关17兴 and find no significant disagreement.

In this paper we have developed a QCD based description ¯ X and B of one-particle inclusive decays of the type B→D →DX. The method we suggest is based on the large-N c limit of QCD, allowing us to factorize certain matrix elements. Once factorization has been performed, one can identify pieces in the rates which can be treated by a short distance expansion, assuming the bottom and the charm quarks to be heavy. This yields a series in inverse powers of the parameter m b ⫺m c . The numerator of the expansion param-

eter is a typical QCD scale for the light degrees of freedom. Thus the expansion parameters are ⌳ QCD /(m b ⫺m c ), 1/N C and ␣ s (m c ) and hence corrections to our calculation could be fairly large, in the worst case of the order of 30%. We have studied the leading term of this expansion which still contains a number of unknown nonperturbative functions. These functions have to be parametrized. In the same way as in the semileptonic case, we reduce the number of functions appearing in the right charm contributions to a single nonperturbative function which can be related to the Isgur Wise function, once we assume that most of the rate is saturated by the decays into the two ground state mesons h D h and D * . For the wrong charm case we suggest two models corresponding to two different ways of contracting the spinor indices. Both models have a single nonperturbative form factor, which we adjust to the experimental wrong charm yield.

perimental rates are above the theoretical ones, it would be interesting to investigate which exclusive channels contribute in the small momentum region.

Although our method should work best close to the nonrecoil point, we also calculate total rates in order to discuss the total number of h D mesons in B decays and the spin and charge counting. While the well-known problem of spin counting, see, e.g., the review 关18兴, is not solved by our ansatz, charge counting seems to work well, once we properly take the D * →D decays into account. The shapes of the decay spectra into vector mesons are already described quite satisfactorily, in particular in the low momentum region, while the h D mesons spectra are off in this region. Furthermore, our model reproduces the normalization of the h D * spectra, such that the spin counting problem manifests itself in a deficit of h D mesons. Since the ex-
