New three-particle QCD kernels for the full Weak Effective Theory basis plus a first six-coupling global fit show that the b to c u q puzzle favors four-operator new-physics models over six-operator ones.

abstract
Using 355 pb^-1 of data collected by the CDF II detector in \ppbar collisions at sqrt{s} = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron, we study the fully reconstructed hadronic decays B -> D pi and B -> D pi pi pi. We present the first measurement of the ratio of branching fractions B(Bs -> Ds pi pi pi) / B(Bd -> Dd pi pi pi) = 1.05 pm 0.10 (stat) pm 0.22 (syst). We also update our measurement of B(Bs -> Ds pi) / B(Bd -> Dd pi) to 1.13 pm 0.08 (stat) pm 0.23 (syst) improving the statistical uncertainty by more than a factor of two. We find B(Bs -> Ds pi) = [3.8 pm 0.3 (stat) pm 1.3 (syst)] \times 10^{-3} and B(Bs -> Ds pi pi pi) = [8.4 pm 0.8 (stat) pm 3.2 (syst)] \times 10^{-3}.

Towards a Global Analysis of the $b\to c\bar{u} q$ Puzzle
New three-particle QCD kernels for the full Weak Effective Theory basis plus a first six-coupling global fit show that the b to c u q puzzle favors four-operator new-physics models over six-operator ones.
