Abstract

A search was made among v_μ charged current events collected in the NOMAD experiment for the reaction: V_μ + N → μ^- + D^*- + hadrons D⁰+ π⁺ K^- π⁺. A high purity D ^*+ sample composed of 35 events was extracted. The ^D*+ yield in V^μ charged current interactions was measured to be T = (0.79 ± 0.17(stat.) ± 0.10(syst.))%. The mean fraction of the hadronic jet energy taken by the D^*+ is 0.67 ± 0.02(stat.) ± 0.02(syst.). The distributions of the fragmentation variables z, P_T² and xF for D ^*+ are also presented.
