Abstract
We have searched for the decay B-->D-s1(+)(2536)X and measured an uppe r limit for the inclusive branching fraction of B(B-->(D) over bar(s1) (+)X)<0.96% at the 90% confidence level. This limit is small compared with the total expected B-->(D) over bar()D(*)KX rate. Assuming facto rization, the D-s1(+) decay constant is constrained to be f(Dsl+)<114 MeV at the 90% confidence level, at least 2.5 times smaller than that of D-s(+). [S0556-2821(98)01809-8].
