We present a study of three ${B}^{0}$ decay modes useful for time-dependent $\mathrm{CP}$ asymmetry measurements. From a sample of $9.7\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{6} B\overline{B}$ meson pairs collected with the CLEO detector, we have reconstructed ${B}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}J/\ensuremath{\psi}{K}_{S}^{0},$ ${B}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c1}{K}_{S}^{0},$ and ${B}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}J/\ensuremath{\psi}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$ decays. The latter two decay modes have been observed for the first time. We describe …
