We present measurements of the decays B0->Ds(*)+D*-, using data recorded by the BABAR detector in 1999 and 2000, consisting of 20.8 fb^-1. The analysis is conducted with a partial reconstruction technique, in which only the Ds(*)+ and the…
We present the CDF results using 1.0 fb^{-1} of data on the mixing frequency measurement in the B_s system and the lifetime measurements of several B hadrons. We obtain \Delta m_s=17.77 +- 0.1 +- 0.07 ps^{-1} and c\tau(\Lambda_b)=473.8 +-…
