The decay is observed with a high significance and its branching fraction relative to the B-0 -> D*(+/-) D--/+ decay is measured to be B(B-s(0) -> D*D-+/-(-/+))/B(B-0 -> D*D-+/-(-/+)) = 0.137 +/- 0.017 +/- 0.002 +/- 0.006, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third is due to the uncertainty on the ratio of the B-s(0) and B-0 hadronisation fractions. %K B physics %K Branching fraction %K Flavor physics %K Hadron-Hadron scattering (experiments) %R 10.1007/JHEP03(2021)099 %U https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.11341 %U https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP03(2021)099 %P 099-19pp
