New BABAR results on B mesons and quarkonia are presented: an analysis of B+ --> X(3872)K+ and B0 --> X(3872)K0 decays with X(3872) --> J/Psi pi+pi-, a precise measurement of the B mass difference Delta mB = m(B0) - m(B+) and a study of…
We study the doubly charmful two-body and three-body baryonic B decays $\bar B\to \Lambda_c^+\bar \Lambda_c^-$ and $\bar B\to \Lambda_c^+\bar \Lambda_c^- \bar K$. As pointed out before, a naive estimate of the branching ratio ${\cal…

We will present the most recent results on leptonic B decays $B^{\pm(0)} \to K^{* \pm (0)} \nu \bar{\nu}$ and $B^{\pm} \to \mu^{\pm} \nu$, based on the data collected by the BaBar detector at PEP-II, an asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collider at the…
We study the charmful three-body baryonic B decays with $D^{(*)}$ or $J/\Psi$ in the final state. We explain the measured rates of $\bar B^0\to n\bar p D^{*+}$, $\bar B^0\to p\bar p D^{(*)0}$, and $B^-\to \Lambda \bar p J/\Psi$. In…
We report recent observations of baryonic B decays with charmless and charmed baryons in the final state. We show the angular distributions of the di-baryon low-mass enhancements in the charmless three-body baryonic B decays andthe…
We study three-body charmless baryonic B decays of $B \to \Lambda\bar\Lambda P$ with $P=\pi$ and $K$ in the standard model. We find that the branching ratios of the $K$ modes are about one order of magnitude larger than those of the…
