TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used three techniques to identify leptons from semileptonic B-particle Z decays, including the charge of the lepton in the opposite hemisphere or using a jet-charge technique.
Abstract: Time-dependent \({{\rm B^{0}}\mbox{-}\bar{{\rm B}}^{0}}\) mixing is studied using about two million hadronic Z decays registered by L3 in 1994 and 1995. For this study three techniques are used. Tagging of the b-quark charge at decay time is performed by identifying leptons from semileptonic B decays. The flavour of the b quark at production time is determined from the charge of the lepton in the opposite hemisphere or by using a jet-charge technique. The proper time of the B-particle decay is obtained by reconstructing the production and decay vertices or by a measurement of the lepton impact parameter. The combined result for the frequency of \({{\rm B_d^0}}\) meson oscillations is \(\)
