We report the first observation of a b -> u type charmless baryonic B decay, B+ -> p pbar pi+, as well as b -> s type B0 -> p pbar K0 and B+ -> p pbar K*+ decays. The analysis is based on a 78fb^{-1} data sample recorded on the Upsilon(4S)…
The {\it BaBar} experiment has recorded the decays of more than 465$\times 10^6 B\bar{B}$ pairs since 1999, and is reaching an unprecedented precision in the measurement of hadronic B decays. The following results are presented: tests of…
We present a new result from Belle and many new results from BABAR for rare hadronic B decays. These include measurements of decays involving baryons, a Dalitz plot analysis of the three-charged-kaon system, many new results for B decays to…
I report on recent measurements from the Belle and BaBar collaborations on the decay of the B-meson to hadronic final states without a charm quark.
We report about the studies of the decay channels B- -> D0 K-, B0 -> D*- a1+ and B0 -> Ds(*)- pi+ with a sample of 62.10^6 Upsilon(4S) decays into B meson pairs collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP II asymmetric e+ e- collider.
We report the observation of the baryonic decay $\bar{B}^0 \to \Lambda^+_c \bar{p} K^- K^+$ using a data sample of $471 \times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs produced in $e^+e^-$ annihilations at $\sqrt{s}=10.58 \mathrm{\,GeV}$. This data sample…
We have studied charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into two-body final states with kaons and pions and observe three new processes with the following branching fractions: BR(B-> pi+ pi-) = (4.3^{+1.6}_{-1.4} \pm 0.5) \times 10^{-6},…

We present recent results from the Belle experiment on rare hadronic B meson decays. The results are based on a 78 fb^{-1} data sample and consist of branching fractions, CP asymmetries, and polarization amplitudes. The decays studied…
We report a search for the charmless baryonic decay $B^0\to p\bar{p}\pi^0$ with a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711~$\rm fb^{-1}$ containing $(772\pm 10)\times 10^6$ $B^0\bar{B}^0$ pairs. The data was collected by…
We report several new and updated results from Belle and BABAR for rare hadronic B decays. These include many new results for B decays to eta'X and omegaX and new measurements of the longitudinal polarisation in the decays B -> rho K*.
We study exclusive B decays to final states containing a charmed baryon within the pole model framework. Since the strong coupling for $\Lambda_b\bar B N$ is larger than that for $\Sigma_b \bar BN$, the two-body charmful decay…
We report recent results in the search for the rare B meson decays B-->rho gamma and B0-->pi0 pi0. These results are based on 56.4 1/fb collected by the BaBar Collaboration at the SLAC PEP-II e+e- B Factory. We set new 90% confidence level…

We report on recent measurements, from the BaBar and Belle experiments, of B-meson decays to purely hadronic final states that do not contain charm. The studies are based on large samples of BBbar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) or…
We present a search for semileptonic B decays to the charmed baryon Lambda_c+ based on 420 fb-1 of data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II $e^+e^-$ storage rings. By fully reconstructing the…
Recent measurements of branching fractions and CP-violating partial-rate asymmetries for rare hadronic B-meson decays by the asymmetric-energy B-factory experiments, Belle and BaBar, are reviewed.
The huge datasets collected at the two B factories, Belle and BaBar, have made it possible to explore the radiative penguin process b --> s gamma, the electroweak penguin process b --> s l+ l- and the suppressed radiative process b --> d…
We study for the first time the three-body charmless baryonic decays $\bar B^0_s\to \bar p \Lambda M^+ (p \bar \Lambda M^-)$, with $M=\pi, K$. We find that the branching ratios of $\bar B^0_s\to (\bar p \Lambda K^+$ and $p\bar \Lambda K^-)$…
