Abstract

The results of a high-statistics study of inclusive muon spectra at PETRA are reported. Improved mass limits have been obtained for heavy quarks, heavy leptons, and charged Higgs particles. It is shown that the fragmentation properties of b quarks and c quarks are different, with the mean fragmentation variables zb=0.750.030.06, zc=0.460.020.05 and the average semileptonic branching ratio for the B and C hadrons R (B)=(10.51.51.3)%, R(C)=(11.51.01.7)%.
