B^0-anti-B^0 flavor oscillations are studied in e^+e^- annihilation data collected with the BABAR detector at center-of-mass energies near the Y(4S) resonance. One B is reconstructed in a hadronic or semileptonic decay mode, and the flavor…
$B^0_d$-$\bar{B}{}^0_d$ oscillations are observed in ``self-tagged'' samples of partially reconstructed $B$ mesons decaying into a lepton and a charmed meson collected in $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.8$ TeV. A flavor tagging…
We present a measurement of the B0 B0-bar oscillation frequency using a flavor tagging method based on correlations of B meson flavor with the charge of other particles produced in p p-bar collisions at sqrt{s} = 1.8 TeV. Such correlations…
The neutral $B$ mesons, $B^0$ and $B_s$, can oscillate between their particle and antiparticle states owing to flavor-changing weak interactions. In recent years, techniques to detect these oscillations as a function of the meson's decay…
We report the observation of $\B_s^0-\bar{B}_s^0$ oscillations performed by the CDF II detector using a data sample of 1 $fb^{-1}$ of $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96 \TeV$. We measure the probability as a function of proper decay…
We measure the B0 lifetime \tau_{B0} and the B0-B0bar oscillation frequency \Delta m_d with a sample of approximately 14,000 exclusively reconstructed B0 --> D*- l+ nu signal events, selected from 23 million BBbar pairs recorded at the…
A sample of Z decays containing b-flavoured hadrons is tagged using leptons, and events having precise proper time measurements are selected. These events are used to study Bs oscillations. using the lepton to tag the decay b-flavour and…
The production and decay of the X(3872) are analyzed under the assumption that the X is a weakly-bound molecule of the charm mesons D^0 \bar D^{*0} and D^{*0} \bar D^0. The decays imply that the large D^0 \bar D^{*0} scattering length has…
B^0-anti-B^0 flavor oscillations have been studied in 20.7 fb-1 of e^+e^- annihilation data collected in 1999 and 2000 with the BABAR detector at center-of-mass energies near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. The event sample consists of one B^0…
A brief review of checking the factorization hypothesis for matrix element of $B^0 - \bar B^0$ mixing within operator product expansion and QCD sum rules is given. Both perturbative and power corrections are considered.
Measurement of the B_s oscillation frequency via B_s mixing analyses provides a powerful constraint on the CKM matrix elements. The study of B_d oscillations is an important step towards B_s mixing and a preliminary measurement of Delta m_d…
We present a measurement of the mass difference Delta m_d for the B0 meson and the statistical power of the b flavor tagging methods used. The measurement uses 90 (1/pb) of data from p p-bar collisions at sqrt[s] = 1.8 TeV collected with…
We discuss the renormalization and factorization scale dependence of charm and bottom production both at fixed-target energies and at present and future colliders. We investigate whether distributions calculable at leading order can be…
Flavor oscillations of neutral $B$ mesons have been studied in $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected with the BABAR detector at center-of-mass energies near the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance. The data sample used for this purpose consists of…
Oscillations of cumulant moments of multiplicity distributions at high ranks, evolution of factorial moments with bin sizes (intermittency, fractality), zeros of the truncated generating functions of multiplicity distributions, and charge…
We measure the B0 lifetime tau_B0 and the B-Bbar oscillation frequency Deltam_d with a sample of approximately 14,000 exclusively reconstructed B0 -> D*- l+ nu_l signal events, selected from 23 million B-Bbar pairs recorded at the…
The interplay between flavour symmetries connecting Bs-->KK decays with the recently measured Bd--> K0 anti-K0 decay and QCD Factorisation opens new strategies to describe the decays Bs--> K0 anti-K0 and Bs--> K+ K- in the SM and in…
The $B^0$-$\bar B^0$ oscillation frequency has been measured with a sample of 23 million $\B\bar B$ pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. In this sample, we select events in which both B mesons…
We consider the hadronic B decays B0bar -> D0 eta, B0bar -> D*0 eta, B0bar -> D0 eta', B0bar -> D*0 eta' in the framework of a quark-flavour basis and factorization. The formalism allows to compute the decays to the eta meson and to relate…
The weak phase \gamma can be determined using untagged B^0\to DK_S or B_s\to D\phi, D\eta^{(')} decays. In the past, the small lifetime difference y\equiv \Delta\Gamma/(2\Gamma) has been neglected in B^0, while the CP violating parameter…
