B Decays and CP Violation from BABAR
نویسنده
چکیده
We present some recent BABAR measurements of the magnitudes of the elements Vub and Vcb of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark-mixing matrix, and of the angles α and γ of the unitary triangle of the standard model of the electroweak interactions. Most of the measurements presented here are based on the full BABAR Υ(4S) dataset, consisting of about 467 × 106 BB pairs.

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 ...
متن کاملCP Violation in B Decays and the CKM Matrix
Results by the BaBar and Belle experiments of the measurements sin 2α, sin 2β and sin(2β + γ) along with the CKM matrix elements Vcb and Vub are presented. The BaBar and Belle experiments b → scc̄ results for sin 2β are in good agreement with each other, comfortably establishing CP violation within B decays. However, there is a 3.5 standard deviation between this result and sin 2β measured by th...
متن کاملSearch for direct CP violation in B → K π , ππ , KK , Quasi - Two - Body B decays and B → K ∗ γ with the BABAR detector at the PEP - II collider ∗
A sample of 23 million BB events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider is used in a search for direct CP violation in charmless two-body B decays, quasi two-body B decays, and the radiative penguin decays B → K∗γ. No evidence for direct CP violation is found in the considered modes and 90% confidence level limits are reported. We also present a limit on the branching fraction...
متن کاملCP-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...

متن کاملDirect CP Violation in Charmless B Decays
We report the updated results of direct CP violation measurements from Belle and BaBar for the following modes: B → h+h−/h±π0, B → η( )h± and B → K±π±π∓, where h stands for a charged kaon or pion. The data used in these studies are up to 386 million BB̄ pairs for Belle and 232 million BB̄ pairs for BaBar. The current significant measurements include: ACP (B → K +π−) = −0.108 ± 0.016, ACP (B → ρ 0...
