Book Description
The authors present preliminary results of the analyses of B[sup+][yields] h[sup+][pi][sup 0] (with H[sup+]=[pi][sup+], K[sup+]) and B[sup 0][yields] K[sup 0][pi][sup 0] decays from a sample of approximately 88 million b[bar B] pairs collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. They measure the[pi][sup+][pi][sup 0] branching fraction and they obtain[Beta](B[sup+][yields][pi][sup+][pi][sup 0])= (5.5[sub -0.9][sup+1.0][+-] 0.6) x 10[sup -6] with a significance of 7.7[sigma] including systematic uncertainties. The measure the K[sup+][pi][sup 0] and K[sup 0][pi][sup 0] branching fractions to be[Beta](B[sup+][yields] K[sup+][pi][sup 0])= (12.8[sub -1.1][sup+1.2][+-] 1.0) x 10[sup -6] and[Beta](B[sup 0][yields] K[sup 0][pi][sup 0])= (10.4[+-] 1.5[+-] 0.8) x 10[sup -6]. At the same time, the direct CP-violating asymmetries are investigated and they find[Alpha][sub[pi][sup+][pi][sup 0]]= -0.03[sub -0.17][sup+0.18][+-] 0.02, [Alpha][sub K[sup+][pi][sup 0]]= -0.09[+-] 0.09[+-] 0.01and[Alpha][sub K[sup 0][pi][sup 0]]= 0.03[+-] 0.36[+-] 0.09, where the errors are statistical and systematic, respectively.

Book Description
The authors present preliminary results of improved measurements of the CP-violating asymmetries and branching fractions in the decays B° →??−, B° → K+?−, B° →?°?°, and B° → K°?°. This update includes all data taken at the?(4S) resonance by the BABAR experiment at the asymmetric PEP-II B-meson factory at SLAC, corresponding to 467 ± 5 million B{bar B} pairs. They find S{sub??} = -0.68 ± 0.10 ± 0.03, C{sub??} = -0.25 ± 0.08 ± 0.02,?{sub K{sub?}} = -0.107 ± 0.016{sub -0.004}, {sup +0.006}, C{sub?°?°} = -0.43 ± 0.26 ± 0.05,?(B° →?°?°) = (1.83 ± 0.21 ± 0.13) x 10−6,?(B° → K°?°) = (10.1 ± 0.6 ± 0.4) x 10−6, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. They observe CP violation with a significance of 6.7? in B° → {pi}− and 6.1? in B° → K+{pi}−. Constraints on the Unitarity Triangle angle? are determined from the isospin relation between all B → {pi}{pi} rates and asymmetries.

Book Description
Based on a sample of 227 million B{bar B} pairs collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC, we measure the branching fraction?(B° →?°?°) = (1.17 ± 0.32 ± 0.10) x 10−6, and the asymmetry C{sub?°?°} = -0.12 ± 0.56 ± 0.06. The B° →?°?° signal has a significance of 5.0?. We also measure?(B →?+?°) = (5.8 ± 0.6 ± 0.4) x 10−6,?(B+ → K+?°) = (12.0 ± 0.7 ± 0.6) x 10−6, and the charge asymmetries?{sub?+{pi}°} = -0.01 ± 0.10 ± 0.02 and?{sub K{sup +}{pi}°} = 0.06 ± 0.06 ± 0.01. Using isospin relations we find an upper bound on the angle difference.

Book Description
We present measurements of the branching fraction and time-dependent CP asymmetries in B{sup 0} {yields} J/{psi}{pi}{sup 0} decays based on (231.8 {+-} 2.6) x 10{sup 6} {Upsilon}(4S) {yields} B{bar B} decays collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory. We obtain a branching fraction {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} J/{psi}{pi}{sup 0}) = (1.94 {+-} 0.22 (stat) {+-} 0.17 (syst)) x 10{sup -5}. We also measure the CP asymmetry parameters C = -0.21 {+-} 0.26 (stat) {+-} 0.06 (syst) and S = -0.68 {+-} 0.30 (stat) {+-} 0.04 (syst).

Book Description
The authors present preliminary measurements of the Cp asymmetries and branching fractions for B {yields} {pi}{pi} and B {yields} K{pi} decays. A total of 347 million B{bar B} events collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e{sup +}e{sup -} collider at SLAC are used for these results.
