New Tagging Method of B Flavor of Neutral B Meson in CP Violation Measurement in Asymmetric B-Factory Experiment

In CP violation measurements in asymmetric B-factory experiments, a determination of the B flavor of the neutral B mesons is necessary. A new method to this purpose using only three vectors of charged particles has been developed. This method (weighted charge method) does not require either lepton identification or charged-kaon identification. The tagging efficiency, probability for incorrect tagging, and effective tagging efficiency of this method are 43.1, 18.3, and 17.3\%, respectively.
