Abstract:

The branching fraction of the τ-→3h-2h+ντ decay (h=π,K) is measured with the BABAR detector to be (8.56±0.05±0.42) ×10-4, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. The observed structure of this decay is significantly different from the phase space prediction, with the ρ resonance playing a strong role. The decay τ-→f1(1285)π-ντ, with the f1(1285) meson decaying to four charged pions, is observed and the branching fraction is measured to be (3.9±0.7±0.5)×10-4. © 2005 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We present a Dalitz-plot analysis of charmless B± decays to the final state π±π±π using 210fb-1 of data recorded by the BABAR experiment at s=10.58GeV. We measure the branching fractions B(B±→π±π±π)=(16.2±1.2±0.9) ×10-6 and B(B±→ρ0(770)π±)=(8.8±1. 0±0.6-0.7+0.1)×10-6. Measurements of branching fractions for the quasi-two-body decays B±→ρ0(1450)π±, B±→f0(980)π± and B±→f2(1270)π± are also presented. We observe no charge asymmetries for the above modes, and there is no evidence for the decays B±→χc0π±, B±→f0(1370)π± and B±→σπ±. © 2005 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

A Dalitz plot analysis of approximately 12500 D0 events reconstructed in the hadronic decay D0→K̄0K+K- is presented. This analysis is based on a data sample of 91.5fb-1 collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- storage rings at SLAC running at center-of-mass energies on and 40 MeV below the Υ(4S) resonance. The events are selected from e+e-→cc̄ annihilations using the decay D*+→D0π+. The following ratio of branching fractions has been obtained: BR= Γ(D0→K̄0K+K-)Γ(D0→K̄0π+π-)=(15.8±0. 1(stat.)±0.5(syst.))×10-2. Estimates of fractions and phases for resonant and nonresonant contributions to the Dalitz plot are also presented. The a0(980)→K̄K projection has been extracted with little background. A search for CP asymmetries on the Dalitz plot has been performed. © 2005 The American Physical Society.
