We report results from an updated study of the suppressed decays ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ and ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{*}{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ followed by $D\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, where ${D}^{(*)}$ indicates a ${D}^{(*)0}$ or a ${\overline{D}}^{(*)0}$ meson, and ${D}^{*}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$ or ${D}^{*}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D\ensuremath{\gamma}$. These decays are sensitive to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa unitarity triangle angle $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ due to interference between the $b\ensuremath{\rightarrow}c$ transition ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensure…
Branching Fractions andCPAsymmetries inB0→π0π0,B+→π+π0, andB+→K+π0Decays and Isospin Analysis of theB→ππSystem
We measure the branching fractions and CP asymmetries in the decays B0-->K(+)K(-)K(0)(S) and B+-->K(+)K(0)(S)K(0)(S) using a sample of approximately 122x10(6) BB pairs collected by the BABAR detector. From a time-dependent analysis of the K(+)K(-)K(0)(S) sample that excludes phiK(0)(S), the values of the CP-violation parameters are S=-0.56+/-0.25+/-0.04 and C=-0.10+/-0.19+/-0.10, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. We confirm that the final state is nearly purely CP even and extract the standard model parameter sin(2beta=0.57+/-0.26+/-0.04(+0.17)(-0) where the last error is due to uncertainty on the CP content. We present the first measurement of the CP-…
Measurement of Time-DependentCPAsymmetries inB0→D(*)±D∓Decays
We present updated results on time-dependent CP asymmetries in fully reconstructed B-0 -> D-(*)+/-pi(-/+) and B-0 -> D-+/-rho(-/+) decays in approximately 232x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-> B (B) over bar events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC. From a time-dependent maximum-likelihood fit we obtain for the parameters related to the CP violation angle 2 beta+gamma: a(D pi)=-0.010 +/- 0.023 +/- 0.007, c(lep)(D pi)=-0.033 +/- 0.042 +/- 0.012, a(D*)pi=-0.040 +/- 0.023 +/- 0.010, c(lep)(D*)pi=0.049 +/- 0.042 +/- 0.015,a(D rho)=-0.024 +/- 0.031 +/- 0.009, c(lep)(D rho)=-0.098 +/- 0.055 +/- 0.018, where the first error is statistical and the second is syste…
