Abstract

We measure the inclusive branching fractions of charm mesons into three mesons with large s (s) over bar content, namely, the eta, eta(') and phi. Data were accumulated with the CLEO-c detector. For D-0 and D+ rates, we use 281 pb(-1) taken on the psi(3770) resonance, and for D-s(+) rates, we use 195 pb(-1) taken at 4170 MeV. We find that the production rates of these particles are larger in D-s(+) decays than in D-0 and D+ decays. The phi rate, in particular, is 15 times greater. These branching fractions can be used to measure B-s yields either at the Upsilon(5S) resonance or at hadron colliders.
