Abstract

The production of D* and D mesons has been studied in e+e- annihilations at √s=29 GeV. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 300 pb-1, were obtained using the HRS detector at PEP. The cross section is measured to be R (D0+D+)=2.40±0.35 and we determine the electroweak asymmetry to be -9.9±2.7%, which corresponds to an axial vector coupling constant product gegc=0.26±0.07.
