We present a search for D0--anti-D0 mixing in the decays D0 --> K+ pi- pi+ pi- using 230.4 fb-1 of data collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II e+ e- collider at SLAC. Assuming CP conservation, we measure the time-integrated mixing…
The BaBar detector and SLAC PEP-II asymmetric e+e- collider tuned to the Y(4s) resonance has collected around 23M B0 anti-B0 pairs in year 2000. The total data sample for run 1 is 20.7fb-1, using this data we present the study of sin2beta,…
Oscillations of B0s mesons have been studied in samples selected from about 3.5 million hadronic Z decays detected by DELPHI between 1992 and 1995. One analysis uses events in the exclusive decay channels: B0s -> Ds- pi+ or Ds- a1+ and B0s…

We report a study of semileptonic B decays to P-wave D** mesons. Semileptonic decay to D*_2 meson is observed for the first time and its product branching ratio is measured to be Br(B+ -> anti-D*0_2 l+nu) x Br(anti-D*0_2 -> D- pi+) = 0.22…
With 12.3 fb-1 collected by the BaBar experiment in 2001, the mixing parameter y = Delta(Gamma)/(2 Gamma) is determined from the ratio of the D0 lifetimes measured in the D0 --> K- pi+ and in the D0 --> K- K+ decay modes. The preliminary…

We measure the mass difference, $\Delta m_+$, between the $D^{*}(2010)^+$ and the $D^+$ using the decay chain $D^{*}(2010)^+\to D^+ \pi^0$ with $D^+\to K^-\pi^+\pi^+$. The data were recorded with the BABAR detector at center-of-mass…
