Results on a number of rare hadronic B decays are presented. A data sample of $29.1 {\rm fb}^{-1}$ accumulated using the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric $e^+e^-$ collider operating at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance is used.
In a sample of 6.6 million produced B mesons we have observed decays B -> eta' K, with branching fractions BR(B+ -> eta' K+ = 6.5 +1.5 -1.4 +- 0.9) x $10^{-5}$ and BR(B0 -> eta' K0 = 4.7 +2.7 -2.0 +- 0.9) x $10^{-5}$. We have searched with…
We present new measurements of CP-violation parameters in B0->phi/Ks, K+K-Ks, f0(980)Ks, eta'Ks, omega/Ks, Pi0/Ks, and K*0(KsPi0)/gamma decays based on a sample of 275x10^6 BBbar pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle…
We search for B meson decays into two-body combinations of eta, eta', omega, and phi mesons from 89 million B B-bar pairs collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at SLAC. We find the branching…
We present improved measurements of CP-violation parameters in the decays $B^0 \to \pi^+ \pi^-$, $B^0 \to K^+ \pi^-$, and $B^0 \to \pi^0 \pi^0$, and of the branching fractions for $B^0 \to \pi^0 \pi^0$ and $B^0 \to K^0 \pi^0$. The results…
We present updated measurements of branching fractions and CP-violating asymmetries for neutral B meson decays to two-body final states of charged pions and kaons. The results are obtained from a data sample of about 60 million Y(4S) to BB…
We have studied two-body charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into the final states $\pi\pi$, $K \pi$, and $KK$. Using 3.3 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the CLEO-II detector, we have made the first observation of the decays…
We report a study of B -> D*K decays with D* decaying to D pi0 or D gamma, using 383 * 10**6 B Bbar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector at the SLAC PEP-II B-Factory. The D meson decays under study include a…
We report a preliminary study of the branching fractions and $q^2$ distributions of exclusive charmless semileptonic B decays, using events tagged by fully reconstructing one of the $B$ mesons in a hadronic decay mode. These results are…

We have studied charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into two-body final states with kaons and pions and observe three new processes with the following branching fractions: BR(B-> pi+ pi-) = (4.3^{+1.6}_{-1.4} \pm 0.5) \times 10^{-6},…

We report the first observation of a number of decay modes of the B meson, namely $B^0 \to D^{*-} (5\pi)^+$, $B^+ \to D^{*-} (4\pi)^{++}$ and $B^+ \to \bar{D}^{*0} (5\pi)^+$, where $(n\pi)$ implies the combination of n charged pions. The…

A search for the decays $B^+ \rightarrow h_c K^+$ and $B^0 \rightarrow h_c K_S^0$ is performed. Evidence for the decay $B^+ \rightarrow h_c K^+$ is found; its significance is $4.8\sigma$. No evidence is found for $B^0 \rightarrow h_c…
