We present a measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in decays of neutral B mesons to the final states D*-+ pi+-, using approximately 232 million BBbar events recorded by the BABAR experiment at the PEP2 e+e- storage…

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…

We point out that the measurement of just the two branching fractions \linebreak $B(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu)$ and $B(K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu)$ can in a theoretically clean manner determine $\sin 2\beta$ almost independently of $m_t$ and…

We study the rare decays $B_s^0\to D^\pm \pi^\mp$ and $\bar B_s^0\to D^\mp \pi^\pm$, which can occur only via annihilation type $W$ exchange diagrams in the standard model. The time-dependent decay rates of the four channels can provide…

It is well known that $\sin(2\beta)$, where $\beta$ is one of the angles of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix, can be determined in a theoretically clean way by measuring mixing-induced CP violation in the decay $B_d \to J/\psi K_S$.…

We discuss several issues related to direct CP violation in rare $B$ meson decays. We review the use of CP asymmetries in extracting information of strong and weak phases, how the experimental data fit into the overall picture, and the…

Various strategies for extracting or constraining the weak phase gamma with controlled theoretical uncertainties are reviewed. Measurements of the rates for the hadronic decays B^+- -> pi K provide largely model-independent information on…

We consider the possibility of studying the CP properties of various B(s) decays at an electro-positron machine tuned to the Upsilon(5s). Since decay modes of the B(s) with definite CP are relatively rare, we suggest that the use of more…

We present preliminary results of a time-dependent measurement of CP-violating asymmetry in fully reconstructed B0->D^(*)+-pi-+ decays in a data sample of approximately 88 million Y(4S)->BB decays collected with the BaBar detector at the…

At the first PPPP workshop, I gave a review talk on physics of B and CP-phases. In my talk, I explained DRG method and our extension to extract CP angles $\alpha$ and $\gamma$ from measurements of the decay rates of $B_{d,s}^0 \to \pi\pi,…

The presence of a sizeable CP-violating phase in B_s^0-B_s^0-bar mixing would be an unambiguous signal of physics beyond the Standard Model. We analyse various possibilities to detect such a new phase considering both tagged and untagged…

We re-examine the time-dependent rates of $\bs(t) \to K^+ K^-$ and $\obs(t) \to K^+ K^-$, including a lifetime difference between neutral $\bs$ mass eigenstates. The two rates, normalized by the rate of $\bs \to \ko \ok$, are used to obtain…

We consider the possibility of extracting the CKM angle $\gamma$ with $B_c$ decays. The modes $B_c^\pm \to (D^0) D_s^\pm \to (K^{*+}K^-) D_s^\pm $ and $B_c^\pm \to (\bar D^0) D_s^\pm \to (K^{*+}K^-) D_s^\pm $ are found to be well suited for…

The decays D^* -> D\pi and D^* -> D\gamma are well described by heavy meson chiral perturbation theory. With the recent measurement of Br(D^{*+} -> D^+ \gamma), the D^{*0}, D^{*+}, and D_s^* branching fractions can be used to extract the…

We show that it is possible to determine the weak phase \gamma \equiv \arg (- V^*_{ub} V_{ud} / V^*_{cb} V_{cd}) of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa flavor mixing matrix only from the measurement of the color-allowed B^{\pm}_u \to D K^{\pm}…

The three body decays $B \to D^{(*)} \bar{D}^{(*)} K_s$ may be used to measure both $\sin{2\beta}$ and $\cos{2\beta}$. Crucial to the $\cos{2\beta}$ measurement is the resonant contribution to the three body decay from p-wave excited $D_s$…

An improved flavor SU(3) method is presented for determining the weak angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle using decay rates for $B^+\to K\pi, B^+\to K^+\bar K^0$ and $B^+\to \pi^+\eta$ (or $B^0\to K\pi$ and $B_s\to K \pi$), their…

Recent results obtained from B decays on the phases of weak couplings described by the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix are discussed, with particular emphasis on $\alpha$ and $\gamma = \pi - \beta - \alpha$.

We present a measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in fully reconstructed $B^0->D^{(*)\pm}\pi^\mp$ decays in a data sample of approximately 88 million $Y(4S)\to B\bar{B}$ decays collected with the BaBar detector at the…

The weak phase $\gamma$ is extracted from three-body charmless decays of $B$ mesons following a method proposed by Bhattacharya, Imbeault \& London. The result is obtained by combining the BABAR amplitude analyses for the processes $B^0…
