Abstract

The resonant substructure of B0s→D¯0K-π+ decays is studied with the Dalitz plot analysis technique. The study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb-1 of pp collision data recorded by LHCb. A structure at m(D¯0K-) ≈ 2.86 GeV/c2 is found to be an admixture of spin-1 and spin-3 resonances. The masses and widths of these states and of the Ds2(2573)- meson are measured, as are the complex amplitudes and fit fractions for all the D¯0K- and K-π+ components included in the amplitude model. In addition, the Ds2(2573)- resonance is confirmed to be spin 2.
