Abstract: (arXiv)
We report the results of a study of charged B decays to the D+- pi-+ pi-+ and D*+- pi-+ pi-+ final states using complete D(*) reconstruction. The contributions of two-body B => D** pi decays with narrow (j=3/2) and broad (j=1/2) D** states have been determined and the masses and widths of four D** states have been measured. This is the first observation of the broad D*0_0 and D'0_1 mesons. The analysis is based on a data sample of 65 million B barB pairs collected in the Belle experiment.
