چکیده

We present results on time-dependentCP asymmetries in neutralB decays. The measurements use a data sample of about 88 million Υ (4S) → BB decays collected between 1999 and 2002 with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. We study events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a final state and the other B meson is determined to be either a B or B from its decay products. Final states considered include B → J/ψK S , B → J/ψK L , B → J/ψπ, B → DD, B → φK S , B → ππ, and B → ρπ.

Babar - the Detector for the Pep Ii B Factory at Slac

BABAR refers to the detector that is being designed for the PEP II B-Factory at SLAC to perform a comprehensive study of CP violation in B meson decays. The design requirements and the principal detector components are briefly described. A summary of the expected physics performance is presented.

The Babar Detector

BABAR, the detector for the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric e + e − B Factory operating at the Υ (4S) resonance, was designed to allow comprehensive studies of CP-violation in B-meson decays. Charged particle tracks are measured in a multi-layer silicon vertex tracker surrounded by a cylindrical wire drift chamber. Electromagnetic showers from electrons and photons are detected in an array of CsI crysta...

Measurements of Lifetimes, Mixing and CP Violation of B Mesons with the BABAR Detector

Using a data sample of 62 million Υ (4S) → BB decays collected between 1999 and 2001 by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC we study events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a final state containing a charmonium meson and the flavour of the other neutral B meson is determined from its decay products. The amplitude of the CP-violating asymmet...

CP Violation in B decays to Charmonium and Charm Final States at BABAR

In the Standard Model (SM), CP violation is described by the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing matrix, V [1]. In particular an irreducible complex phase in the 3 × 3 mixing matrix is the source of all the SM CP violation. Measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries in the B meson decays, through the interference between decays with and without B −B0 mixing, have provides stringent ...

CP-violation in b → s Penguin Decays at BaBar

We present the new and updated BABAR measurements of CP -violation studies for many b → s penguin decay modes. We report the first observation of mixing-induced CP -violation in B → η ′ K with a significance (including systematic uncertainties) of 5.5σ. We also present the first observation of the decay B → ρK. Using the time-dependent Dalitz plot analysis of B → KKK decay, the CP -parameters A...

The decay of B mesons to open charm and charmonium provides an excellent laboratory for the study of hadronic B decays. With about 88 millions of B pairs, the BABAR experiment has collected a sample of data that enable to test models of B decay in more modes and with greater precision than ever before. In this note we present some examples. In section 2 a test on non-relativistic QCD is describ...
