We report on a preliminary measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in B0 --> J/psi K0S and B0 --> psi(2S) K0S decays recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. The data sample consisted of 9.0…
CP violation in $\tau\to K_S \pi\nu_\tau$ decays has attracted a lot of attention recently, due to the BaBar anomaly in the corresponding rate asymmetry. Within an effective field theory formalism, only extreme fine-tuning would allow to…
We present measurements of the branching fraction and CP-violating asymmetries for neutral B decays to D*+-D-+. The measurement uses a data sample of approximately 88 million Y(4S) --> B Bbar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the…
Motivated by recent indications that the rates of colour-allowed non-leptonic channels are not in agreement with their Standard Model expectations based on QCD factorisation, we investigate the potential to study CP asymmetries with these…

We analyze the decay B0 --> K+ K- K0 using 383 million B-Bbar events collected by the BaBar detector at SLAC to extract CP violation parameter values over the Dalitz plot. Combining all K+ K- K0 events, we find A_CP = -0.015 +/- 0.077 +/-…
We present preliminary measurements of the CP asymmetry parameters in B^0 -> K^0_S K^0_S K^0_S decays, reconstructing two of the K^0_S into pi^+pi^- and one into pi^0pi^0. In a sample of 227M $B\bar B$ pairs collected by the BABAR detector…
We search for the decays B- -> phi K- gamma and B0bar -> phi K0bar gamma in a data sample of 228 million BBbar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector. We measure the branching fraction B(B- -> phi K- gamma) =…
We study CP violation in b-baryon decays of $\Xi_b^- \to \Xi^- D$ with $D = D^0, \bar{D}^0$ and $D_i~(i=1,2)$. We find that these baryonic decay processes provide an ideal opportunity to measure the weak phase due to the absence of the…

We compute CP asymmetries of one-particle inclusive B(s) --> D(s) X decay rates. We find that the weak angle gamma could in principle be extracted from these asymmetries although they are very small. Taking the decay width difference into…
