The measured ratio is B(B0{\textrightarrow}D*-$\tau$+$\nu$$\tau$)/B(B0{\textrightarrow}D*-$\pi$+$\pi$-$\pi$+)=1.70{\textpm}0.10+0.11-0.10, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is related to systematic effects. Using established branching fractions for the B0{\textrightarrow}D*-$\pi$+$\pi$-$\pi$+ and B0{\textrightarrow}D*-$\mu$+$\nu$$\mu$ modes, the lepton universality test R(D*-)=B(B0{\textrightarrow}D*-$\tau$+$\nu$$\tau$)/B(B0{\textrightarrow}D*-$\mu$+$\nu$$\mu$) is calculated, R(D*-)=0.247{\textpm}0.015{\textpm}0.015{\textpm}0.012, where the third uncertainty is due to the uncertainties on the external branching fractions. This result is consistent with the Standard Model prediction and with previous measurements.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=6088), last updated on Fri, 26 Apr 2024 14:51:22 +0000", doi="10.1103/PhysRevD.108.012018", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.01463", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.108.012018" }
