Measurement of the Branching Fraction and Photon Energy Moments ofB→XsγandACP(B→Xs+dγ)
2006
The photon spectrum in B -> X-s gamma decay, where X-s is any strange hadronic state, is studied using a data sample of 88.5x10(6) e(+)e(-)->Upsilon(4S)-> B(B) over bar decays collected by the BABAR experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The partial branching fraction, Delta B(B -> X-s gamma)=(3.67 +/- 0.29(stat)+/- 0.34(syst)+/- 0.29(model))x10(-4), the first moment =2.288 +/- 0.025 +/- 0.017 +/- 0.015 GeV, and the second moment =0.0328 +/- 0.0040 +/- 0.0023 +/- 0.0036 GeV2 are measured for the photon energy range 1.9 GeV 1.6 GeV. In addition, the direct CP asymmetry A(CP)(B -> Xs+d gamma) is measured to be -0.110 +/- 0.115(stat)+/- 0.017(syst).
The BaBar detector: Upgrades, operation and performance
2013
The BABAR detector operated successfully at the PEP-Il asymmetric e(+) e(-) collider at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory from 1999 to 2008. This report covers upgrades, operation, and performance of the collider and the detector systems, as well as the trigger, online and offline computing, and aspects of event reconstruction since the beginning of data taking.
