Abstract: (Springer)

Data collected with the OPAL detector during 1990–1994 are used to measure the time dependence of$$B_d^0\leftrightarrow

electron positron: colliding beams
electron positron: annihilation
Z0: electroproduction
Z0: hadronic decay
B0 anti-B0: oscillation
time: oscillation
B0: mass difference
B0: decay modes
final state: (D*(2010) lepton)
D*(2010): hadronic decay
