A search for mixing in the neutral D meson system was performed using semileptonic D^0 -> K- e+ nu decays. The flavor of neutral D mesons at production was tagged by the charge of the slow pion from the decay D*+ -> D^0 \pi+. The…

We present a measurement of the B^0-B^0bar mixing parameter Delta m_d using neutral B meson pairs in a 29.1 fb^{-1} data sample collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider. We…

We consider the gluino-mediated SUSY contributions to B0 - B0 bar mixing, B -> J/psi K_S and B -> X_d gamma in the mass insertion approximation. We find the LL mixing parameter can be as large as |delta_{13}^d_{LL}| < 2*10^-1, but the LR…

Based on an 87-fb$^{-1}$ dataset collected by the Babar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$-Factory, a search for $D^{0}$--$\bar{D}^{0}$ mixing has been made using the semileptonic decay modes $D^{*+} \to \pi^{+} D^{0}, D^{0} \to…

We describe a measurement of B^0-B^0bar mixing parameters exploiting a method of partial reconstruction of the decay chains B0 -> D^{*-}\pi^+ and B0 -> D^{*-}\rho^+. Using 9.6 x 10^6 BBbar pairs collected at the Cornell Electron Storage…

We measure the B0 lifetime \tau_{B0} and the B0-B0bar oscillation frequency \Delta m_d with a sample of approximately 14,000 exclusively reconstructed B0 --> D*- l+ nu signal events, selected from 23 million BBbar pairs recorded at the…

We present measurements of the branching fraction and time-dependent CP asymmetries in B0->J/Psi pi0 decays based on (231.8 +/- 2.6)*10^6 Upsilon(4S) -> BBbar decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B…

I summarize the observables constraining the B_s-B_s-bar mixing complex and present a new calculation of the element Gamma_{12}^s of the decay matrix. Gamma_{12}^s enters the prediction of the width difference Delta Gamma_s, for which we…

We present updated measurements of the branching fractions for the modes B0->pi0pi0, B+ -> pi+pi0, and B+ -> K+pi0. We also measure the time-integrated asymmetry C_pi0pi0 and the charge asymmetries A_CP(pi+pi0) and A_CP(K+pi0). Based on a…

We report the result of a search for D0 - D0_bar mixing in the data from hadroproduction experiment E791 at Fermilab. We use the D* tag and semileptonic decay vertices of D0 to look for wrong-sign decays with mixing time dependence.

The B meson decay modes B --> D p pbar and B --> D* p pbar have been studied using 29.4 fb^{-1} of data collected with the Belle detector at KEKB. The B0bar --> D0 p pbar and B0bar --> D*0 p pbar decays have been observed for the first time…

We propose a scheme for the measurement of the s-wave scattering length $a$ of an atom or molecule with significant dipole-dipole interaction with an accuracy at the percent level. The frequencies of the collective oscillations of a…

A width difference of the order of 20\% has previously been predicted for the two mass eigenstates of the $B_s$ meson. The dominant contributor to the width difference is the $b\rightarrow c\bar c s$ transition, with final states common to…

The search for $D^0\bar{D}^0$ mixing carries a large discovery potential for new physics since the $D^0\bar{D}^0$ mixing rate is expected to be very small in the Standard Model. The past decade has seen significant experimental progress in…

$B^0_d$-$\bar{B}{}^0_d$ oscillations are observed in ``self-tagged'' samples of partially reconstructed $B$ mesons decaying into a lepton and a charmed meson collected in $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.8$ TeV. A flavor tagging…

In this letter, we consider the constraints imposed by the recent measurement of B_s - bar B_s mixing on the new physics contribution to the rare decay B_s --> mu+ mu-. New physics in the form vector and axial-vector couplings is already…

Measurements of the $B_s^0$--$\bar{B}_s^0$ mixing phase $\phi_s$ appear to be converging towards the SM prediction, suggesting that contributions from New Physics (NP), if present, are small. This poses the question of whether smallish NP…

A search has been made for the decays B+ -> phi pi+ and B0->to phi pi0 in a data sample of approximately 232 x 10^6 B Bbar pairs recorded at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II B-meson Factory at SLAC. No…

Heavy, as yet undiscovered particles, can affect measurements of CP violation in the B system. Measuring CP violation in the Bs system provides an excellent place to observe such effects since Standard Model sources are predicted to produce…

Recent CDF and D0 measurements of B^0_s-\bar{B}^0_s mixing make it possible to search for CP violation and test CPT symmetry in a variety of B_s decays. Considering both coherent B^0_d\bar{B}^0_d decays at the \Upsilon (4S) resonance and…
