Results of recent searches for new physics in CP violation in charm decays from the BABAR experiment are presented. These results include a measurement of $D^0$ - $\bar{D}^0$ mixing and searches for CP violation in two-body $D^0$ decays, a…
We perform a model-independent measurement of the $D^0$-$\overline{D}{}^0$ mixing parameters using samples of $e^+e^-$-collision data collected by the Belle and Belle II experiments that have integrated luminosities of $951\ \text{fb}^{-1}$…
The phenomenon of mixing in neutral meson systems has now been observed in all flavours, but only in the past year in the D0 system. The standard model anticipated that, for the charm sector, the mixing rate would be small, and also that CP…
The main challenge in the Standard Model calculation of the mass and width difference in the D0-D0bar system is to estimate the size of SU(3) breaking effects. We prove that D meson mixing occurs in the Standard Model only at second order…
We report a study of the suppressed B meson decay B^- -> D K^- followed by D -> K^+ \pi^-, where D indicates a D^0 or \bar{D}^0 state. The two decay paths interfere and provide information on the CP-violating angle \phi_3. We use a data…
We report a measurement of the $D^0$-$\bar{D}{}^0$ mixing parameter $y_{CP}$ using 23.4 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected near the $\Upsilon$(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at KEKB. $y_{CP}$ is measured from the lifetime difference of…
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 present selected new results on leptonic B meson decays from the BaBar experiment: searches for the decays B0->l+l-, B+->l+nu and B0->l+tau-, and B->Knunubar, where l=e or mu. The decay modes imply also their charge conjugations. We…
We reconstruct B0bar --> Ds-D+ decays using a sample of 449 x 10^6 BBbar pairs recorded by the Belle experiment, and measure the branching fraction to be Br(B0bar --> Ds-D+)=[7.5 +- 0.2(stat) +- 0.8(syst) +- 0.8(Br's)] x 10^(-3). A search…
The Standard Model contribution to D0-anti-D0 mixing is dominated by the contributions of light s and d quarks. Neglecting the tiny effects due to b quark, both mass and lifetime differences vanish in the limit of SU(3) symmetry. Thus, the…
We report a measurement of the $B^0-\bar{B}^0$ mixing parameter $\Delta m_d$ based on a $\rm 29.1~fb^{-1}$ sample of $\Upsilon (4S)$ resonance decays collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collider. We use events…
We present a search for the decays of $B^0$ mesons into a final state containing a $\Lambda$ baryon and missing energy. These results are obtained from a $711\text{fb}^{-1}$ data sample that contains $772 \times 10^6$ $B{\kern…
We report on a search for D0-D0bar mixing made by a study of the `wrong-sign' process D0 -> K+pi-. The data come from 9.0 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity of e+e- collisions at sqrt{s} approximately 10 GeV produced by CESR and accumulated…
The D^0 mixing parameter y = Delta Gamma/2 Gamma was determined by measuring the D^0 lifetime separately for the K^-pi^+ decay mode and the K^-K^+ decay mode with 12.4 fb^{-1} of data collected by the BABAR experiment in 2001. Backgrounds…
We report on a search for D0-D0bar mixing made by a study of the `wrong-sign' process D0 -> K+pi-. The data come from an integrated luminosity of e+e- collisions at sqrt{s} of about 10 GeV consisting of 9.0 1/fb recorded with the CLEO-II.V…
We review results from FNAL E791 concerning D0-D0bar mixing and CP violation in D meson decays. We have searched for mixing in semileptonic D0 -> K+\ell-\bar{\nu} decays and in hadronic D0 -> K+\pi- and D0 -> K+\pi-\pi+\pi- decays. We have…
$D-\bar D$ mixing is the source of the largest theoretical uncertainty in the extraction of $\gamma$ from $B\to D K$ decays. In the Standard Model, the mixing can have a rate close to its current experimental upper bound and is…
We present a search for the decay of a B0 or B0bar meson to a K*0bar K0 or K*0 K0bar final state, using a sample of approximately 232 million BBbar events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric energy e+e- collider at…
