Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using 90.4/fb of data taken at the BABAR experiment in the years 1999 to 2002, the decays Ds*+ -> Ds+ pi0 and Ds*+ -> Ds+ gamma have been reconstructed with two different methods. Signal Monte Carlo events as well as D*0 decays have been used to determine the reconstruction efficiencies. Thereby, the partial widths ratio Gamma(Ds*+ -> Ds+ pi0) / Gamma(Ds*+ -> Ds+ gamma) has been measured in four different ways. Additionally, the partial widths ratio Gamma(D*0 -> D0 pi0) / Gamma(D*0 -> D0 gamma) has been measured.
