Abstract

We calculate the fully-differential rate of the decays B→Pτ(→μν¯ν)ν¯B→Pτ(→μν¯ν)ν¯ where P=D,πP=D,π , background to the semimuonic decays B→Pμν¯B→Pμν¯ . The decays with a 3ν3ν final state can have a sizable impact on the experimental analyses of the ratios RDRD and RπRπ , depending on the event selection in the analysis. We outline a strategy which permits the extraction of RP(τ→μν¯ν)RPB(τ→μν¯ν) from the neutrino-inclusive rate. Our analytic results can also be used to test both existing and upcoming experimental analyses. We further provide Monte Carlo samples of the 5D rate of the neutrino-inclusive decays B→PμXν¯B→PμXν¯
