Abstract
We present a direct measurement of {ital A}{sub {ital c}}=2{ital v}{sub {ital c}}{ital a}{sub {ital c}}/({ital v}{sup 2}{sub {ital c}}+{ital a}{sup 2}{sub {ital c}}) from the left-right forward-backward asymmetry of {ital D}{sup *}+ and {ital D}{sup +} mesons in {ital Z}{sup 0} events produced with the longitudinally polarized SLAC Linear Collider beam. These {ital Z}{sup 0}{r_arrow}{ital c} over bar events are tagged on the basis of event kinematics and decay topology from a sample of hadronic {ital Z}{sup 0} decays recorded by the SLAC Large Detector. We measure {ital A}{sup 0}{sub {ital c}} = 0.73 {plus_minus} 0.22(stat) {plus_minus} 0.10(syst). {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital The} {ital American} {ital Physical} {ital Society}.
