Abstract
We present a model-independent measurement of beta(D-s(-) --> phi pi())/beta(D-0 --> K- pi(+)) by partially reconstructing the decay B-0 -- > (DDs-)-D-*+. Using data collected with the CLEO II detector at CESR , we determine beta(D-s(-) --> phi pi(-))/beta(D-0 --> K(-)pi(+)) = 0. 92 +/- 0.20(stat.) +/- 0.11(syst.). Our measurement of B(D-0 --> K(-)p i(+)) then gives beta(D-s(-) --> phi pi(-)) = (3.59 +/- 0.77 +/- 0.48) %.
