Abstract
The Beijing Spectrometer (BES) Collaboration has observed exclusive pa ir production of D-s mesons at the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider (BEPC) at a center-of-mass energy of 4.03 GeV. The D-s mesons are dete cted in the phi pi(+), (K) over barK-0(+), and (K) over bar(0)K(+) de cay modes; two fully reconstructed events yield the value (3.9 (-1.9 - 1.1) (+5.1 +1.8))% for the D-s branching fraction to phi pi. This is t he first direct, model-independent measurement of this quantity.
