We analyze the decay B0 --> K+ K- K0 using 383 million B-Bbar events collected by the BaBar detector at SLAC to extract CP violation parameter values over the Dalitz plot. Combining all K+ K- K0 events, we find A_CP = -0.015 +/- 0.077 +/-…

The e^+e^- annihilation data recorded with the BABAR detector has been used to study B decays to D_s^(*) and D^* mesons. The production fraction of inclusive D_s^(*) and the corresponding momentum spectra have been determined. Exclusive…

We present updated measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries in fully-reconstructed neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates containing a charmonium meson. The measurements use a data sample of (383 +/- 4) x 10^6 Y(4S)-> BBbar decays…

We search for decays of a B meson into a neutral D meson and a kaon, with the D meson decaying into K+pi-pi0. This final state can be reached through the b --> c transition B- -> D0K- followed by the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed D0 -->…

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 (re)examine CP violation in the decays B_d -> D K_s, where D represents D^0, D(bar), or one of their excited states. The quantity $\sin^2(2\beta + \gamma)$ can be extracted from the time-dependent rates for $B_d(t) -> {\bar D}^{**0} K_s$…
