Abstract
We report on the inclusive branching fractions of and of mesons decaying to , , , , , , , , based on a sample of events recorded with the BABAR detector at the resonance. Events are selected by completely reconstructing one and searching for a reconstructed charmed particle in the rest of the event. We measure the number of charmed and of anticharmed particles per decay and derive the total charm yield per decay and per decay , where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third reflects the charm branching-fraction uncertainties.
