We introduce a new method for the determination of the ratio of production fractions $R^{\pm0}=\mathcal B(\Upsilon(4S)\to B^+B^-)/\mathcal B(\Upsilon(4S)\to B^0\bar B^0)$ based on $\bar B\to D^{(*)}\ell\bar \nu$ decays. Given the importance…

Evidence for the decays $B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{0}\phi$ and $B^{0} \rightarrow \bar{D}^{*0}\phi$ is reported with a significance of 3.6$\,\sigma$ and 4.3$\,\sigma$, respectively. The analysis employs $pp$ collision data at centre-of-mass…
A non-standard CP-odd Higgs boson could induce a slight (but observable) lepton universality breaking in Upsilon leptonic decays. Moreover, mixing between such a pseudoscalar Higgs boson and $\eta_b$ states might shift their mass levels,…
We report improved measurements of branching fractions for charmless hadronic two-body {\it B} meson decays containing an $\omega$ meson in the final state. The results are based on a data sample of 78 fb$^{-1}$ collected on the…
