We present measurements of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates. The measurement uses a data sample of 23 million Upsilon(4S)-->B-anti-B decays collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II…
Effects of CP violation and of final state interactions between pairs of pseudoscalar mesons are studied in three-body B+, B-, B0 and antiB0 decays into K pi pi. An alternative approach to the isobar model for three-body B decays is…
We investigate direct CP violation in neutral meson decays by reconstructing the associated density matrices and measuring their difference using the trace distance. Our results cover neutral kaon decays into two scalar triplets of isospin…
In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with complex parameters, one-loop corrections to the decay of a stop into a bottom-quark and a chargino can lead to a CP violating decay rate asymmetry. We perform a detailed numerical…
When studying B decays within the Standard Model, it is customary to use the unitarity of the CKM matrix in order to write the decay amplitudes in terms of only two of the three weak phases which appear in the various diagrams.…
Strangeness-changing decays of $B$ mesons to three-body final states of pions and kaons are studied, assuming that they are dominated by a $\Delta I=0$ penguin amplitude with flavor structure $\bar b \to \bar s$. Numerous isospin relations…
We make a systematic analysis of the effects of new physics in the B decay amplitudes on the CP asymmetries in neutral B decays. Although these are expected to be smaller than new physics effects on the mixing amplitude, they are easier to…
We discuss an improved theoretical description of the semi-inclusive B meson decays $B\to K(K^*)X$. The decay distributions are calculated. Their branching ratios are found to be appreciable. The CP asymmetries in the neutral B modes…
The decays $B \to PP$, where $P$ denotes a pseudoscalar meson, are analyzed, with emphasis on charmless final states. Numerous triangle relations for amplitudes hold within SU(3) symmetry, relating (for example) the decays $B^+ \to \pi^+…
We reexamine, update and extend a suggestion we made fifteen years ago for measuring the photon polarization in $b \to s\gamma$ by observing in $B \to K\pi\pi\gamma$ an asymmetry of the photon with respect to the $K\pi\pi$ plane.…
Anharmonic decay rates are calculated for a realistic atomic model of amorphous silicon. The results show that the vibrational states decay on picosecond timescales and follow the two-mode density of states, similar to crystalline silicon,…
We present measurements of branching fractions and \CP-violating asymmetries in decays of $B$ mesons to two-body final states containing a \Kz. The results are based on a data sample of approximately 88 million \upsbb decays collected with…
In the Standard Model with Minimal Supersymmetry, the Lagrangian contains complex parameters which lead to additional CP violation. We study CP violating asymmetries in the decays of the MSSM charged Higgs boson, induced by loop corrections…
Although two pion decays of $K$, $D$ and $B$ have similar isospin structures, there are dramatic differences in the ratios $R_K$ and $R_{D,B}$ of amplitudes from $\Delta I =3/2$ and $\Delta I =1/2$ interactions. In $K\to \pi\pi$ decays…
We propose a new set of observables that can be used as experimental null tests of the Standard Model in charged and neutral B decays. The CP asymmetries in hadronic decays of charged B mesons into inclusive final states containing at least…
We report an observation of the decay B^\pm -> \phi \phi K^\pm and evidence for B^0 -> \phi \phi K^0. These results are based on a 414 fb^{-1} data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider…
We report a measurement of the branching fraction and final-state asymmetry for the $\bar{B}^{0}\to K^{0}_{S}K^{\mp}\pi^{\pm}$ decays. The analysis is based on a data sample of 711 $\rm{fb}^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance…
We study the CP asymmetries in $B^+$, $D^+$, and $K^+$ decays into $\pi^+\pi^0$. These asymmetries are commonly known to vanish in the isospin limit. We clarify what is meant by the term ``isospin limit" in this context. We provide a…
We present a precise isospin analysis of the B -> Dbar(*) D(*) K decays using new recent experimental measurements on these final states. The decays B -> Dbar(*) D(*) K, originating from b -> c cbar s transitions, are linked by a rich set…
We review recent advances in the theory of strong-interaction effects and final-state interactions in hadronic weak decays of heavy mesons. In the heavy-quark limit, the amplitudes for most nonleptonic, two-body B decays can be calculated…
