We present recent results from the BABAR collaboration of the time-dependent analysis of B0 meson decays to KsKsKs, the Dalitz-plot analysis of B0->K+K-Ks and the time-dependent CP asymmetry of partially reconstructed B0->D*+D*- decays.
We demonstrate that time-dependent studies of angular distributions for $B_s$ decays caused by $\bar b\to\bar cu\bar s$ quark-level transitions extract cleanly and model-independently the CKM angle $\gamma$. This CKM angle could be cleanly…
We report a measurement of CP-violating asymmetries in B0-->(rhopi)0-->pi+pi-pi0 decays using a time-dependent Dalitz plot analysis. The results are obtained from a data sample of 375 million Y(4S) --> BBbar decays, collected by the BaBar…
A variety of CP violating asymmetries in $B^0$ decays is predicted in the Standard Model in terms of CKM (Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa) complex phases. These phases can also be determined from rate measurements of certain $B^+$ and $B^-$…
We discuss, in detail, the K* polarization states in the exclusive B meson decay B0-> K*0(-> K-pi+)l^+l^- (l=e, \mu, \tau) in the low dilepton mass region. We focus on the study of the angular distribution of this decay that provides…
The time-dependent $CP$ asymmetry in $B^0 \to K_{\rm res} \gamma \to \pi^+ \pi^- K^0_{\scriptscriptstyle S} \gamma$ is sensitive to the photon polarisation in the quark level process $b \to s \gamma$. While this polarisation is…
This work investigates the prospects for performing a time-dependent angular analysis of $B_s^0 \rightarrow \phi \mu^+\mu^-$ decays at hadron colliders, and introduces new optimised angular observables associated with $B_s^0$-mixing in the…
We present updated results on time-dependent CP asymmetries in fully reconstructed B0->D(*)+-pi-+ and B0->D+-rho-+ decays in approximately 232 million Y(4S)->BBbar events collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B…
At present, the measurements of $R_{D^{(*)}}$ and $R_{J/\psi}$ hint at new physics (NP) in $b \to c \tau^- {\bar\nu}$ decays. The angular distribution of ${\bar B} \to D^* (\to D \pi) \, \tau^{-} {\bar\nu}_\tau$ would be useful for getting…
I discuss three B physics results with potential for exhibiting new flavour-changing interactions: (1) the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B\to J/\psi K_S decay; (2) branching fractions and CP asymmetries in B\to \pi\pi, \pi K decays; (3)…
The short-distance Hamiltonian describing b->s(d)e^-e^+ in the standard model is used to obtain the decay spectrum of \bar{B}->K^-pi^+e^-e^+ and \bar{B}->pi^-pi^+e^-e^+, assuming the Kpi and pipi systems to be the decay products of K^* and…
The $B_s^0-\bar{B}_s^0$ system can be used to look for new sources of CP violation. Time-dependent CP violation measurements of beauty mesons allow the determination of the mixing induced CP-violating phase, $\phi_s$. The angular analysis…
Time-dependent CP asymmetries in $B^0$ decays from interference of $B^0$-$\bar B^0$ mixing and $b\to c\bar cs, u\bar ud, sq\bar q$, and direct asymmetries from interference of $b\to c\bar us$ and $b\to u\bar cs$ are studied, improving…
We present the most general (six-helicity) angular analysis of Bs -> V_1 (-> P_1P'_1) V_2 (-> P_2P'_2) (V_i is a vector meson, and P_i, P'_i are pseudoscalars). We focus on final states accessible to both Bs and Bsbar -- these are mainly…
The time-dependent angular distributions of decays of neutral $B$ mesons into two vector mesons contain information about the lifetimes, mass differences, strong and weak phases, form factors, and CP violating quantities. A statistical…
Since the CP violation in the $B$ system has been investigated up to now only through processes related to the $B$--$\bar{B}$ mixing, urgently required is new way of study for the CP violation and establishing its origin in the $B$ system…
Exploiting $B$-meson decays for Standard Model tests and beyond requires a precise understanding of the strong final-state interactions that can be provided model-independently by means of dispersion theory. This formalism allows one to…
We revisit the decay $\Lambda_b^0\to \Lambda_c^+ \ell^-\bar\nu$ ($\ell = e,\mu,\tau$) with a subsequent two-body decay $\Lambda_c^+ \to \Lambda^0 \pi^+$ in the Standard Model and in generic New Physics models. The decay's joint…
We show that an angular analysis of B -> V1 V2 decays yields numerous tests for new physics in the decay amplitudes. Many of these new-physics observables are nonzero even if the strong phase differences vanish. For certain observables,…
The noteworthy BaBar and Belle evidence for $D^0$-$\bar{D}^0$ mixing motivates us to study its impact on $D^0\to K^{*\pm} K^\mp$ decays and their CP-conjugate processes. We show that both the $D^0$-$\bar{D}^0$ mixing parameters ($x$ and…
