Understand

We present a measurement of the branching fraction $B(D_s^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu)$ using a 548 fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider.

The $D_s$ momentum is determined by reconstruction of the system recoiling against $DK\gamma X$ in events of the type $e^+e^-\to D_s^\ast DKX, D_s^\ast \to D_s\gamma$, where $X$ represents additional pions or photons from fragmentation.
The full reconstruction method provides high resolution in the neutrino momentum and thus good background separation, equivalent to that reached by experiments at the tau-charm factories.
We obtain the branching fraction $B(D_s^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu) = (6.44 \pm 0.76({\rm stat}) \pm 0.57({\rm syst})) \cdot 10^{-3}$, implying a $D_s$ decay constant of $f_{D_s} = (275 \pm 16({\rm stat}) \pm 12({\rm syst}))$ MeV.

It has been found that events with additional kaons or more than one photon have a poor signal/background ratio and have been therefore excluded

The upper limit of 9 is chosen because the bin n X T = 9 n^{T}_{X}=9 has some overlap with n X R ≤ 8 n^{R}_{X}\leq 8 . The corresponding fitted weight turns out to be negligible and is neglected in the further analysis
