EnglishThe partial decay width of the Z to <b(b)over bar> quark pairs has been measured by the DELPHI detector at LEP. B-hadrons, containing b-quarks, were tagged by several methods using tracks with large impact parameters to the primary vertex complemented sometimes by event shape variables or using leptons with high transverse momentum relative to the hadron, In order to reduce the systematic uncertainties, in all methods the b-tagging efficiency has been extracted directly from the data. Combining all methods, the value: Gamma(<b(b)over bar>)/Gamma(had) = 0.2216 +/- 0.0016(stat.) +/- 0.0021(syst.) was found, where the <c(c)over bar> production fraction was fixed to its Standard Model value.

| Abstract: | The partial decay width of the Z to <b(b)over bar> quark pairs has been measured by the DELPHI detector at LEP.

Combining all methods, the value: Gamma(<b(b)over bar>)/Gamma(had) = 0.2216 +/- 0.0016(stat.) +/- 0.0021(syst.) was found, where the <c(c)over bar> production fraction was fixed to its Standard Model value. | |
