Abstract

We report the first observation of B0 → X(3872) (K+π-) and evidence for B+ → X(3872) (K0π+). The product of branching fractions for the former decay mode is measured to be \cal B(B0 → X(3872) (K+ π-)) × \cal B(X(3872) → J/ψπ+ π-) = (7.9 ± 1.3(stat.)± 0.4(syst.)) × 10-6 and also find that B0→ X(3872) K*(892)0 does not dominate the B0→ X(3872)K+π- decay mode in contrast to other charmonium states like ψ'. The product of branching fractions for the latter decay mode is measured to be \cal B(B+ → X(3872) (K0 π+)) × \cal B(X(3872) → J/ψπ+ π-) = (10.6 ± 3.0(stat.) ± 0.9(syst.)) × 10-6. This study is based on the full and final data sample of 711~fb-1 (772× 106 B B pairs) collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB collider.
