We study the decays B- --> D*0 pi- and B- --> D*0 K-, where the D*0 decays into D0 pi0, with the D0 reconstructed in the CP-even (CP+) eigenstates K- K+ and pi- pi+ and in the (non-CP) channels K- pi+, K- pi+ pi+ pi-, and K- pi+ pi0. Using…

We report observations of radiative B meson decays into the K+pi-gamma and K+pi-pi+gamma final states. In the B0 -> K+pi-gamma channel, we present evidence for decays via an intermediate tensor meson state with a branching fraction of B(B0…

We present preliminary measurements of the CP asymmetry parameters in B^0 -> K^0_S K^0_S K^0_S decays, reconstructing two of the K^0_S into pi^+pi^- and one into pi^0pi^0. In a sample of 227M $B\bar B$ pairs collected by the BABAR detector…

We perform a time-dependent amplitude analysis of $B^0 \to K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$ decays to extract the CP violation parameters of $f_0(980) K^0_S$ and $\rho^0(770) K^0_S$ and the direct CP asymmetry of $K^{*+}(892) \pi^-$. The results are…

We report a study of the decay $B^0\rightarrow D K^+\pi^-$ followed by $D\rightarrow K^-\pi^+$, where $D$ indicates $D^0$ or $\bar{D}^0$. We reconstruct the $D K^+\pi^-$ state in a phase space corresponding to $D K^{*}(892)^0$. The…

We analyse the B -> pi pi, pi K modes in the light of the most recent B-factory data, and obtain the following new results: (i) the B0 -> pi+ pi-, pi- K+ modes prefer gamma=(74+-6)deg, which - together with |V_ub/V_cb| - allows us to…
