Abstract

We present measurments of the branching fractions for the three-body decays B-0 -> D((*) -/+)K(0)pi(+/-) and their resonant submodes B0 -> D(*)K-/+*(+/-) usinga sample of approximately 88 x 10(6) B (B) over bar pairs collected by the BABER detector at the SLAC PEP-II assymetric energy storage ring. We measure: B(B-0-> D(-/+)K(0)pi(+/-)) = (4.9 +/- 0.7(stat) +/- 0.5(syst)) x 10(-4), B(B-0 -> D*(-/+)K(0)pi(+/-)) = (3.0 +/- 0.7(stat) +/- 0.3(syst)) x 10(-4), B(B-0 -> D-/+K*(+/-)) = (4.6 +/- 0.6(stat) +/- 0.5(syst)) x 10(-4), B(B-0 -> D*K-/+*(+/-) = (3.2 +/- 0.6(stat) +/- 0.3(syst)) x 10(-4). From these measurements we determine the fractions of resonant events to be f(B0 -> D+/-K*(-/+)) = 0.63 +/- 0.08(stat) +/- 0.04(syst) and f(B-0 -> D*K-/+*(+/-)) = 0.72 +/- 0.14(stat) +/- 0.05(syst).
