Measurement of the branching ratios Γ(Ds*+→Ds+π0)/ Γ(Ds*+→Ds+γ) and Γ(D*0→D0π0)/ Γ(D*0→D0γ)

Abstract:

Data samples corresponding to the isospin-violating decay Ds*+→Ds+π0 and the decays Ds*+→Ds+γ, D*0→D0π0 and D*0→D0γ are reconstructed using 90.4 fb-1 of data recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The following branching ratios are extracted: Γ(Ds*+→Ds+π0)/Γ(Ds*+→Ds+γ)=0. 062±0.005(stat.)±0.006(syst.) and Γ(D*0→D0π0)/ Γ(D*0→D0γ)=1.74±0.02(stat.)±0.13(syst.). Both measurements represent significant improvements over present world averages. © 2005 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We perform a search for the exclusive radiative decay B0→γ, which is dominated by b̄d annihilation, in a sample of 124×106 BB̄ events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- storage ring at SLAC. No significant signal is seen. We set an upper limit on the branching fraction of B(B0→γ)<8. 5×10-7 at the 90% confidence level. © 2005 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We report a Dalitz-plot analysis of the charmless hadronic decays of charged B mesons to the final state K±π π±. Using a sample of 226.0±2.5 million BB̄ pairs collected by the BABAR detector, we measure the magnitudes and phases of the intermediate resonant and nonresonant amplitudes for both charge-conjugate decays. We present measurements of the corresponding branching fractions and their charge asymmetries that supersede those of previous BABAR analyses. We find the charge asymmetries to be consistent with zero. © 2005 The American Physical Society.
