Abstract: We report on the first search for electron-muon lepton flavor violation (LFV) in the decay of a b quark and b antiquark bound state. We look for the LFV decay ϒ(3S)→e±μ∓ in a sample of 118 million ϒ(3S) mesons from 27 fb−1 of data collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II e+e− collider operating with a 10.36 GeV center-of-mass energy. No evidence for a signal is found, and we set a limit on the branching fraction B[ϒ(3S)→e±μ∓]<3.6×10−7 at 90% C. L. This result can be interpreted as a limit ΛNP/gNP2>80 TeV on the energy scale ΛNP divided by the coupling-squared gNP2 of relevant new physics (NP).

Abstract: International audience; We report on the first search for electron-muon lepton flavor violation (LFV) in the decay of a b quark and b antiquark bound state. We look for the LFV decay ϒ(3S)→e±μ∓ in a sample of 118 million ϒ(3S) mesons from 27 fb-1 of data collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II e+e- collider operating with a 10.36 GeV center-of-mass energy. No evidence for a signal is found, and we set a limit on the branching fraction B[ϒ(3S)→e±μ∓]<3.6×10-7 at 90% C. L. This result can be interpreted as a limit ΛNP/gNP2>80 TeV on the energy scale ΛNP divided by the coupling-squared gNP2 of relevant new physics (NP).

Abstract: We study the processes $\gamma \gamma \to \eta_c \to \eta' K^+ K^-$, $\eta' \pi^+ \pi^-$, and $\eta \pi^+ \pi^-$ using a data sample of 519 $fb^{-1}$ recorded with the BaBar detector operating at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider at center-of-mass energies at and near the $\Upsilon(nS)$ ($n = 2,3,4$) resonances. This is the first observation of the decay $\eta_c \to \eta' K^+ K^-$ and we measure the branching fraction $\Gamma(\eta_c \to \eta' K^+ K^-)/(\Gamma(\eta_c \to \eta' \pi^+ \pi^-)=0.644\pm 0.039_{\rm stat}\pm 0.032_{\rm sys}$. Significant interference is observed between $\gamma \gamma \to \eta_c\to \eta \pi^+ \pi^-$ and the non-resonant two-photon process $\gamma \gamma \to \eta \pi^+ \pi^-$. A Dalitz plot analysis is performed of $\eta_c$ decays to $\eta' K^+ K^-$, $\eta' \pi^+ \pi^-$, and $\eta \pi^+ \pi^-$. Combined with our previous analysis of $\eta_c \to K \bar K \pi$, we measure the $K^*_0(1430)$ parameters and the ratio between its $\eta' K$ and $\pi K$ couplings. The decay $\eta_c \to \eta' \pi^+ \pi^-$ is dominated by the $f_0(2100)$ resonance, also observed in $J/\psi$ radiative decays. A new $a_0(1700) \to \eta \pi$ resonance is observed in the $\eta_c \to \eta \pi^+ \pi^-$ channel. We also compare $\eta_c$ decays to $\eta$ and $\eta'$ final states in association with scalar mesons as they relate to the identification of the scalar glueball., Comment: 25 pages, 18 figures

Abstract: We study the processes e+e−→π+π−π0π0π0π0γ and π+π−π0π0π0ηγ in which an energetic photon is radiated from the initial state. The data were collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. About 7300 and 870 events, respectively, are selected from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 469 fb−1. The invariant mass of the hadronic final state defines the effective e+e− center-of-mass energy. The center-of-mass energies range from threshold to 4.5 GeV. From the mass spectra, the first ever measurements of the e+e−→π+π−π0π0π0π0 and the e+e−→π+π−π0π0π0η cross sections are performed. The contributions from ωπ0π0π0, ηπ+π−π0, ωη, and other intermediate states are presented. We observe the J/ψ and ψ(2S) in most of these final states and measure the corresponding branching fractions, many of them for the first time. publishedVersion

Abstract: The process e+e−→π+π−π0γ is studied at a center-of-mass energy near the Υ(4S) resonance using a data sample of 469 fb−1 collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider. We have performed a precise measurement of the e+e−→π+π−π0 cross section in the center-of-mass energy range from 0.62 to 3.5 GeV. In the energy regions of the ω and ϕ resonances, the cross section is measured with a systematic uncertainty of 1.3%. The leading-order hadronic contribution to the muon magnetic anomaly calculated using the measured e+e−→π+π−π0 cross section from threshold to 2.0 GeV is (45.86±0.14±0.58)×10−10. From the fit to the measured 3π mass spectrum we have determined the resonance parameters Γ(ω→e+e−)B(ω→π+π−π0)=(0.5698±0.0031±0.0082) keV, Γ(ϕ→e+e−)B(ϕ→π+π−π0)=(0.1841±0.0021±0.0080) keV, and B(ρ→3π)=(0.88±0.23±0.30)×10−4. The significance of the ρ→3π signal is greater than 6σ. For the J/ψ resonance we have measured the product Γ(J/ψ→e+e−)B(J/ψ→3π)=(0.1248±0.0019±0.0026) keV. publishedVersion

Abstract: We study the processes $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ and $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0\eta\gamma$ in which an energetic photon is radiated from the initial state. The data were collected with the BaBar detector at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. About 7300 and 870 events, respectively, are selected from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 469~$fb^{-1}$. The invariant mass of the hadronic final state defines the effective $e^+e^-$ center-of-mass energy. The center-of-mass energies range from threshold to 4.5~GeV. From the mass spectra, the first ever measurements of the $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0$ and the $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0\eta$ cross sections are performed. The contributions from $\omega\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0$, $\eta\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$, $\omega\eta$, and other intermediate states are presented. We observe the $J/\psi$ and $\psi(2S)$ in most of these final states and measure the corresponding branching fractions, many of them for the first time., Comment: 20 pages, 27 figures

Abstract: LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a next-generation dark matter direct detection experiment that will operate 4850 feet underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, South Dakota, USA. Using a two-phase xenon detector with an active mass of 7 tonnes, LZ will search primarily for low-energy interactions with weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), which are hypothesized to make up the dark matter in our galactic halo. In this paper, the projected WIMP sensitivity of LZ is presented based on the latest background estimates and simulations of the detector. For a 1000 live day run using a 5.6-tonne fiducial mass, LZ is projected to exclude at 90% confidence level spin-independent WIMP-nucleon cross sections above 1.4 × 10-48cm2 for a 40 GeV/c2 mass WIMP. \ud Additionally, a 5σ discovery potential is projected, reaching cross sections below the exclusion limits of recent experiments. For spin-dependent WIMP-neutron(-proton) scattering, a sensitivity of 2.3 × 10−43 cm2 (7.1 × 10−42 cm2) for a 40 GeV/c2\ud mass WIMP is expected. With underground installation well underway, LZ is on track for commissioning at SURF in 2020.

Abstract: We report on a precision measurement of the ratio ${\cal R}_{\tau\mu}^{\Upsilon(3S)} = {\cal B}(\Upsilon(3S)\to\tau^+\tau^-)/{\cal B}(\Upsilon(3S)\to\mu^+\mu^-)$ using data collected with the BaBar detector at the SLAC PEP-II $e^+e^-$ collider. The measurement is based on a 28 fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected at a center-of-mass energy of 10.355 GeV corresponding to a sample of 122 million $\Upsilon(3S)$ mesons. The ratio is measured to be ${\cal R}_{\tau\mu}^{\Upsilon(3S)} = 0.966 \pm 0.008_\mathrm{stat} \pm 0.014_\mathrm{syst}$ and is in agreement with the Standard Model prediction of 0.9948 within 2 standard deviations. The uncertainty in ${\cal R}_{\tau\mu}^{\Upsilon(3S)}$ is almost an order of magnitude smaller than the only previous measurement., Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables

Abstract: The BaBar Collaboration has operated a system covering over 2000 [m.sup.2] with resistive plate chambers for nearly three years. The chambers are constructed of bakelite sheets separated by 2 mm. The inner surfaces are coated with linseed oil. This system provides muon and neutral hadron detection for BaBar. Installation and commissioning were completed in 1998, and operation began mid-1999. While initial performance of the system reached design, over time, a significant fraction of the resistive plate chambers demonstrated significant degradation, marked by increased currents and reduced efficiency. A coordinated investigative effort has identified many of the elements responsible for the degradation. Index Terms--Gas discharge, particle tracking, radiation detectors.

Abstract: We report the observation of the rare charm decay $D^0\rightarrow K^-\pi^+e^+e^-$, based on $468$ fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected at or close to the center-of-mass energy of the $Y(4S)$ resonance with the BaBar detector at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. We find the branching fraction in the invariant mass range $0.675< m(e^+e^-) < 0.875 GeV/c^2$ of the electron-positron pair to be ${\cal B}(D^0\rightarrow K^-\pi^+e^+e^-) = (4.0\pm0.5\pm0.2\pm0.1) \times 10^{-6}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic, and the third due to the uncertainty in the branching fraction of the decay $D^0\rightarrow K^-\pi^+\pi^+\pi^-$ used as a normalization mode. The significance of the observation corresponds to 9.7 standard deviations including systematic uncertainties. This result is consistent with the recently reported $D^0\rightarrow K^-\pi^+\mu^+\mu^-$ branching fraction, measured in the same invariant mass range, and with the value expected in the Standard Model. In a set of regions of $m(e^+e^-)$ where long-distance effects are potentially small, we determine a 90% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction ${\cal B}(D^0\rightarrow K^-\pi^+e^+e^-) < 3.1 \times 10^{-6}$., Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures

Abstract: An angular analysis of the decay ${\overline{B} \rightarrow D^\ast \ell^- \overline{\nu}_\ell}$, $\ell\in\{e,\mu\}$, is reported using the full $e^+e^-$ collision data set collected by the \babar experiment at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance. One $B$ meson from the ${\Upsilon(4S)\to B\overline{B}}$ decay is fully reconstructed in a hadronic decay mode, which constrains the kinematics and provides a determination of the neutrino momentum vector. The kinematics of the semileptonic decay is described by the di-lepton mass squared, $q^2$, and three angles. The first unbinned fit to the full four-dimensional decay rate in the Standard Model is performed in the so-called Boyd-Grinstein-Lebed approach, which employs a generic $q^2$ parameterization of the underlying form factors based on crossing symmetry, analyticity and QCD dispersion relations for the amplitudes. A fit using the more model-dependent Caprini-Lellouch-Neubert (CLN) approach is performed as well. Our form factor shapes show deviations from previous fits based on the CLN parameterization. The latest form factors also provide an updated prediction for the branching fraction ratio $\mathcal{R}(D^\ast)\equiv \mathcal{B}(\overline{B}\to D^\ast \tau^- \bar{\nu}_\tau)/\mathcal{B}({\overline{B} \rightarrow D^\ast \ell^- \overline{\nu}_\ell})=0.253 \pm 0.005$. Finally, using the well measured branching fraction for the ${\overline{B} \rightarrow D^\ast \ell^- \overline{\nu}_\ell}$ decay, a value of $|V_{cb}|=(38.36\pm 0.90)\times10^{-3}$ is obtained that is consistent with the current world average for exclusive ${\overline{B}\to D^{(\ast)}\ell^- \overline{\nu}_\ell}$ decays and remains in tension with the determination from inclusive semileptonic $B$ decays to final states with charm.

Abstract: We study the process $e^+e^- \to \pi^+\pi^-\eta \gamma$, where the photon is radiated from the initial state. About 8000 fully reconstructed events of this process are selected from the BaBar data sample with an integrated luminosity of 469~fb$^{-1}$. Using the $\pi^+\pi^-\eta$ invariant mass spectrum we measure the $e^+e^- \to \pi^+\pi^-\eta$ cross section in the $e^+e^-$ center-of-mass energy range from 1.15 to 3.5 GeV. The cross section is well described by the Vector-Meson Dominance model with four $\rho$-like states. We observe $49\pm9$ events of the $J/\psi$ decay to $\pi^+\pi^-\eta$, and measure the product $\Gamma_{J/\Psi \to e^+e^-} \text{B}_{J/\Psi \to \pi^+\pi^-\eta} = 2.34 \pm 0.43_{\text{stat}} \pm 0.16_{\text{syst}}$~eV., Comment: 17 pages, 21 postscript figues, submitted to Phys.

Abstract: We study the processes $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ and $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0\eta\gamma$ in which an energetic photon is radiated from the initial state. The data were collected with the BaBar~ detector at SLAC. About 14\,000 and 4700 events, respectively, are selected from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 469~$fb^{-1}$. The invariant mass of the hadronic final state defines the effective $e^+e^-$ center-of-mass energy. From the mass spectra, the first precise measurement of the $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0\pi^0$ cross section and the first measurement ever of the $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0\eta$ cross section are performed. The center-of-mass energies range from threshold to 4.35~GeV. The systematic uncertainty is typically between 10 and 13\%. The contributions from $\omega\pi^0\pi^0$, $\eta\pi^+\pi^-$, and other intermediate states are presented. We observe the $J/\psi$ and $\psi(2S)$ in most of these final states and measure the corresponding branching fractions, many of them for the first time., Comment: 24 pages, 37 figures

Abstract: The decay $\tau^{-}\to K^{-}K_S\nu_{\tau}$ has been studied using $430\times10^6$ $e^+e^-\to \tau^+\tau^-$ events produced at a center-of-mass energy around 10.6 GeV at the PEP-II collider and studied with the BABAR detector. The mass spectrum of the $K^{-}K_S$ system has been measured and the spectral function has been obtained. The measured branching fraction ${\cal B}(\tau^{-}\to K^{-}K_S\nu_{\tau}) = (0.739\pm 0.011(\rm stat.)\pm 0.020(\rm syst.))\times 10^{-3}$ is found to be in agreement with earlier measurements., Comment: 12 pages, 13 figures, submitted to Phys.

Abstract: The process $e^+e^- \to \pi^+\pi^-2\pi^0\gamma$ is investigated by means of the initial-state radiation technique, where a photon is emitted from the incoming electron or positron. Using $454.3 \rm{fb}^{-1}$ of data collected around a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 10.58 \rm{GeV}$ by the BaBar experiment at SLAC, approximately 150000 signal events are obtained. The corresponding non-radiative cross section is measured with a relative uncertainty of $3.6\%$ in the energy region around $1.5 \rm{GeV}$, surpassing all existing measurements in precision. Using this new result, the channel's contribution to the leading order hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon is calculated as $(g_\mu^{\pi^+\pi^-2\pi^0}-2)/2 = (17.9 \pm 0.1_\mathrm{stat} \pm 0.6_\mathrm{syst}) \times 10^{-10}$ in the energy range $0.85\rm{GeV} < E_\mathrm{CM} < 1.8\rm{GeV}$. In the same energy range, the impact on the running of the fine structure constant at the $Z^0$-pole is determined as $\Delta\alpha^{\pi^+\pi^-2\pi^0}(M^2_\mathrm{Z}) = (4.44 \pm 0.02_\mathrm{stat} \pm 0.14_\mathrm{syst}) \times 10^{-4}$. Furthermore, intermediate resonances are studied and especially the cross section of the process $e^+e^- \to \omega\pi^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-2\pi^0$ is measured., Comment: Version accepted by PRD. 19 pages, 21 figures

Abstract: The processes $e^+e^-\to K^0_{\scriptscriptstyle S}K^\pm\pi^{\mp}\pi^0$ and $e^+e^-\to K^0_{\scriptscriptstyle S}K^\pm\pi^{\mp}\eta$ are studied over a continuum of energies from threshold to 4 GeV with the initial-state photon radiation method. Using 454 fb$^{-1}$ data collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II storage ring, the first measurements of the cross sections for these processes are obtained. The intermediate resonance structures from $K^{*0}(K\pi)^0$, $K^{*}(892)^\pm(K\pi)^\mp$ and $K^0_{\scriptscriptstyle S}K^\pm\rho^{\mp}$ are studied. The $J/\psi$ is observed in all of these channels, and corresponding branching fractions are measured., Comment: 19 pages, 38 figures

Abstract: We study the processes $e^+ e^- \to \ \gamma_{\rm ISR} J/\psi$ where $J/\psi \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$, $J/\psi \to K^+ K^- \pi^0$, and $J/\psi \to K^0_S K^{\pm} \pi^{\mp}$ using a data sample of 519 $fb^{-1}$ recorded with the BaBar detector operating at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider at center-of-mass energies at and near the $\Upsilon(nS)$ ($n = 2,3,4$) resonances. We measure the ratio of branching fractions $R_1 = \frac{B(J/\psi \ \to \ K^+ K^- \pi^0)}{B(J/\psi \ \to \ \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0)}$ and $R_2 = \frac{B(J/\psi \ \to \ K^0_S K^{\pm} \pi^{\mp})}{B(J/\psi \ \to \ \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0)}$. We perform Dalitz-plot analyses of the three $J/\psi$ decay modes and measure fractions for resonances contributing to the decays. We also analyze the $J/\psi \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$ decay using the Veneziano model. We observe structures compatible with the presence of $\rho(1450)$ in all the three $J/\psi$ decay modes and measure the relative branching fraction: $R(\rho(1450)) = \frac{B(\rho(1450) \ \to \ K^+ K^-)}{B(\rho(1450) \ \to \ \pi^+ \pi^-)} = 0.307 \pm 0.084 ({\rm stat}) \pm 0.082 ({\rm sys})$., Comment: 22 pages, 17 postscript figures, to be published in Phys.

Abstract: International audience; We measure the mass difference, Δm+, between the D*(2010)+ and the D+ using the decay chain D*(2010)+→D+π0 with D+→K-π+π+. The data were recorded with the BABAR detector at center-of-mass energies at and near the ϒ(4S) resonance, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of approximately 468 fb-1. We measure Δm+=(140 601.0±6.8[stat]±12.9[syst]) keV. We combine this result with a previous BABAR measurement of Δm0≡m(D*(2010)+)-m(D0) to obtain ΔmD=m(D+)-m(D0)=(4824.9±6.8[stat]±12.9[syst]) keV. These results are compatible with and approximately five times more precise than the Particle Data Group averages.

Abstract: We report a measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry of B[over ¯]^{0}→D_{CP}^{(*)}h^{0} decays, where the light neutral hadron h^{0} is a π^{0}, η, or ω meson, and the neutral D meson is reconstructed in the CP eigenstates K^{+}K^{-}, K_{S}^{0}π^{0}, or K_{S}^{0}ω. The measurement is performed combining the final data samples collected at the ϒ(4S) resonance by the BABAR and Belle experiments at the asymmetric-energy B factories PEP-II at SLAC and KEKB at KEK, respectively. The data samples contain (471±3)×10^{6} BB[over ¯] pairs recorded by the BABAR detector and (772±11)×10^{6} BB[over ¯] pairs recorded by the Belle detector. We measure the CP asymmetry parameters -η_{f}S=+0.66±0.10(stat)±0.06(syst) and C=-0.02±0.07(stat)±0.03(syst). These results correspond to the first observation of CP violation in B[over ¯]^{0}→D_{CP}^{(*)}h^{0} decays. The hypothesis of no mixing-induced CP violation is excluded in these decays at the level of 5.4 standard deviations.

Abstract: We present a search for B decays to charmless final states involving charged or neutral a0 mesons. The data sample corresponds to 89 million BBbar pairs collected with the BABAR detector operating at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. We find no significant signals and determine the following 90% C.L. upper limits: BR(B0 -> a0-pi+) < 5.1x10{-6}, BR(B0 -> a0-K+) < 2.1x10{-6}, BR(B- -> a0-K0bar) < 3.9x10{-6}, BR(B+ -> a00pi+) < 5.8x10{-6}, BR(B+ -> a00K+) < 2.5x10{-6}, and BR(B0 -> a00K0) < 7.8x10{-6}, where in all cases BR indicates the product of branching fractions for B -> a0X and a0 -> etapi, where X indicates K or pi., 7 pp, 3 Post figs, Revised version for PRD Rapid Comm

Abstract: We have performed a search for the rare leptonic decays \Bp \to \ellp \nul ($l=e,\mu$), using data collected at the \FourS resonance by the \babar\ detector at the \pep2 storage ring. In a sample of 468 million \BB pairs we find no evidence for a signal and set an upper limit on the branching fractions $\BR(\bmunu) < 1.0\times10^{-6}$ and $\BR(\benu) < 1.9\times10^{-6}$ at the 90% confidence level, using a Bayesian approach., Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures

Abstract: Charged lepton-flavor violating processes are extremely rare in the Standard Model, but they may occur in several beyond-the-Standard Model theories, including Supersymmetry or models with leptoquarks or compositeness. We present a search for such processes in a sample of 117M Upsilon(3S) decays recorded with the BaBar detector. We place upper limits on the branching fractions BF(Upsilon(3S) -> e tau) < 5.0e-6 and BF(Upilon(3S) -> mu tau) < 4.1e-6 at 90% confidence level. These results are used to place lower limits on the mass scale of beyond-the-Standard Model physics contributing to lepton-flavor violating decays of the Upsilon(3S)., Comment: 15 pages, 4 postscript figures, submitted to QWG6

Abstract: We present a study of two states decaying to Lambda_c^+K^-pi^+ using the BaBar detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy e^+e^- storage rings. We use an integrated luminosity of 288.5 fb^{-1} collected at the center-of-mass energy sqrt{s} = 10.58 GeV, near the peak of the Upsilon(4S) resonance, plus 27.2 fb^{-1} collected approximately 40 MeV below this energy. We search for the particles Xi_{c}(2980)^+ and Xi_{c}(3077)^+, recently discovered by the Belle Collaboration, in their decays to Lambda_c^+K^-pi^+, where Lambda_c^+rightarrow pK^-pi^+. We find a signal with 7.0 sigma significance for the Xi_c(2980)^+ state with a mass difference with respect to the Lambda_c^+ of (680.6pm1.9pm1.0) MeV/c^2 (first error is statistical and second error is systematic). The measured width for this state is (23.6pm2.8pm1.3) MeV, and the yield is 284pm45pm46 events. We find a signal with 8.6 sigma significance for the Xi_c(3077)^+ state with a mass difference with respect to the Lambda_c^+ of (790.0pm0.7pm0.2) MeV/c^2, a width of (6.2pm1.6pm0.5) MeV, and a yield of 204pm35pm12 events. The Xi_{c}(2980)^+ is found to decay resonantly through the intermediate state Sigma_c(2455)^{++}K^- with 4.9 sigma significance and non-resonantly to Lambda_c^+K^-pi^+ with 4.1 sigma significance. With 5.8 sigma significance, the Xi_c(3077)^+ is found to decay resonantly through Sigma_c(2455)^{++}K^-, and with 4.6 sigma significance, it is found to decay through Sigma_c(2520)^{++}K^-. The significance of the signal for the non-resonant decay Xi_c(3077)^+rightarrow Lambda_c^+K^-pi^+ is 1.4 sigma. These results are preliminary.

Abstract: A measurement of the spin of the Omega^- hyperon produced through the exclusive process Xi_c^0 --> Omega^- K^+ is presented using a total integrated luminosity of 116 fb^-1 recorded with the BABAR detector at the e^+ e^- asymmetric-energy B-Factory at SLAC. Under the assumption that the Xi_c^0 has spin 1/2, the angular distribution of the Lambda from Omega^- --> Lambda K^- decay is inconsistent with all half-integer Omega^- spin values other than 3/2. Lower statistics data for the process Omega_c^0 --> Omega^- pi^+ from a 230 fb^-1 sample are also found to be consistent with Omega^- spin 3/2. If the Xi_c^0 spin were 3/2, an Omega^- spin of 5/2 cannot be excluded., 7 pages, 6 postscript figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett

Abstract: 18 pages, 16 postscript figures, submitted to Phys.Rev.D; We present a simultaneous measurement of the B0bar lifetime tau_B0 and B0B0bar oscillation frequency Delta_md. We use a sample of about 50000 partially reconstructed B0bar --> D*+ ell- nu-bar decays identified with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- storage ring at SLAC. The flavor of the other B meson in the event is determined from the charge of another high-momentum lepton. The results are tau_B0 = (1.504 +/- 0.013 (stat) {+0.018}/{-0.013} (syst)) ps, Delta_md = (0.511 +/- 0.007 (stat) {+0.007}/{-0.006} (syst)) ps-1

Abstract: We present measurements of the branching fraction and time-dependent CP asymmetries in B0->J/Psi pi0 decays based on (231.8 +/- 2.6)*10^6 Upsilon(4S) -> BBbar decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC during the years 1999-2004. We obtain a branching fraction B(B0->J/Psi pi0) = (1.94 +/- 0.22 (stat) +/- 0.17 (syst))*10^-5. We also measure the CP asymmetry parameters C = -0.21 +/- 0.26 (stat) +/- 0.09 (syst) and S = -0.68 +/- 0.30 (stat) +/- 0.04 (syst). All results presented in this paper are preliminary., Comment: Contributed to International Europhysics Conference On High-Energy Physics (HEP 2005), 7/21--7/27/2005, Lisbon, Portugal

Abstract: We study the process $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$, with a hard photon radiated from the initial state. About 60,000 fully reconstructed events have been selected from 89 $fb^{-1}$ of BaBar data. The invariant mass of the hadronic final state defines the effective \epem center-of-mass energy, so that these data can be compared with the corresponding direct $e^+e^-$ measurements. From the $4\pi$-mass spectrum, the cross section for the process $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ is measured for center-of-mass energies from 0.6 to 4.5 $GeV/c^2$. The uncertainty in the cross section measurement is typically 5%. We also measure the cross sections for the final states $K^+ K^- \pi^+\pi^-$ and $K^+ K^- K^+ K^-$. We observe the $J/\psi$ in all three final states and measure the corresponding branching fractions. We search for X(3872) in $J/\psi (\to\mu^+\mu^-) \pi^+\pi^-$ and obtain an upper limit on the product of the $e^+e^-$ width of the X(3872) and the branching fraction for $X(3872) \to J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$., Comment: 25 pages, 30 figures

Abstract: We present measurements of the branching fraction and time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in $B^0 \to K^0_s K^0_s K^0_s$ decays based on 227 million $\Upsilon(4S) \to B \bar{B}$ decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$ Factory at SLAC. We obtain a branching fraction of $(6.9^{+0.9}_{-0.8}\pm 0.6)\times 10^{-6},$ and CP asymmetries $C = -0.34^{+0.28}_{-0.25} \pm 0.05$ and $S = -0.71^{+0.38}_{-0.32} \pm 0.04,$ where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic., Comment: 7 pages, 2 postscript figues, submitted to PRL

Abstract: We search for the rare flavor-changing neutral-current decay $B^+ \to K^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ in a data sample of 82 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the {\sl BABAR} detector at the PEP-II B-factory. Signal events are selected by examining the properties of the system recoiling against either a reconstructed hadronic or semileptonic charged-B decay. Using these two independent samples we obtain a combined limit of ${\mathcal B}(B^+ \to K^+ \nu \bar{\nu}), Comment: 7 pages, 8 postscript figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett

Abstract: Based on a sample of 227 million BBbar pairs collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC, we measure the branching fraction B(B0 -> pi0pi0) = (1.17 +- 0.32 +- 0.10) x 1e-6, and the asymmetry C(pi0pi0) = -0.12 +- 0.56 +- 0.06. The B0 -> pi0pi0 signal has a significance of 5.0 sigma. We also measure B(B+ -> pi+pi0) = (5.8 +- 0.6 +- 0.4) x 1e-6, B(B+ -> K+pi0) = (12.0 +- 0.7 +- 0.6) x 1e-6, and the charge asymmetries A(pi+pi0) = -0.01 +- 0.10 +- 0.02 and A(K+pi0) = 0.06 +- 0.06 +- 0.01. Using isospin relations we find an upper bound on the angle difference |alpha - alpha(eff)| of 35 degrees at the 90% C.L., Comment: 7 pages, 3 postscript figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett

Abstract: We present results on $B\to J/\psi\xspace K\pi$ decays using $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected with the BABAR detector at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance. The detector is located at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy storage ring facility at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Using approximately 88 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs, we measure the decay amplitudes for the flavor eigenmodes and observe strong-phase differences indicative of final-state interactions with a significance of 7.6 standard deviations. We use the interference between the $K\pi$ $S$-wave and $P$-wave amplitudes in the region of the $K^*(892)$ to resolve the ambiguity in the determination of these strong phases. We then perform an ambiguity-free measurement of $\cos2\beta$ using the angular and time-dependent asymmetry in $B\to J/\psi\xspace K^{*0}(K_S^0\pi^0$) dec With $\sin 2 \beta$ fixed at its measured value and $\cos 2 \beta$ treated as an in we find $\cos 2\beta=2.72_{-0.79}^{+0.50}\mathrm{(stat)} \pm 0.27\mathrm{(syst)}$, de sign of $\cos 2\beta$ to be positive at 86% CL.

Abstract: We present results on time-dependent CP asymmetries in neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates. The measurements use a data sample of about 227 million Upsilon(4S) -> BBbar decays collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. The amplitude of the CP asymmetry, sin2Beta in the Standard Model, is derived from decay-time distributions from events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a final state containing a charmonium meson and the other $B$ meson is determined to be either a B0 or B0bar from its decay products. We measure sin2Beta = 0.722 +/- 0.040 (stat.) +/- 0.23 (syst.) in agreement with the Standard Model expectation., Comment: 7 pages, 2 postscript figues, submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett

Abstract: 05 BABAR; We present measurements of the branching fraction and CP-violating asymmetries in the decay $B^0 \to f_0(980)K^0_S$. The results are obtained from a data sample of $123\times10^6$ $\Upsilon(4S) \to B\bar{B}$ decays. From a time-dependent maximum likelihood fit we measure the branching fraction ${\cal B}(\Bz\to f_0(980)(\to\pi^+\pi^-)K^0)=(6.0\pm0.9\pm0.6\pm1.2)\times 10^{-6}$, the mixing-induced CP violation parameter $S=-1.62^{+0.56}_{-0.51} \pm 0.09\pm 0.04$ and the direct CP violation parameter $C=0.27\pm 0.36\pm 0.10 \pm 0.07 $, where the first errors are statistical, the second systematic and the third due to model uncertainties. We measure the $f_0(980)$ mass and width to be $m_{f_0(980)}=(980.6 \pm 4.1 \pm 0.5\pm 4.0){\rm MeV}/c^2$ and $\Gamma_{f_0(980)}=(43^{+12}_{-9} \pm 3 \pm 9){\rm MeV}/c^2$, respectively.

Abstract: We search for the decay B0 -> rho0 rho0 in a data sample of about 227 million Upsilon(4S)-> BBbar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at SLAC. We find no significant signal and set an upper limit of 1.1*10^-6 at 90% CL on the branching fraction. As a result, the uncertainty due to penguin contributions on the CKM unitarity angle alpha measured in B -> rho rho decays is 11 degrees at 68% CL., Comment: 7 pages, 4 postscript figures, submitted to Phys.

Abstract: A search for the nonconservation of lepton flavor number in the decay tau(+/-)->mu(+/-)gamma has been performed using 2.07 x 10(8) e(+)e(-)->tau(+)tau(-) events produced at a center-of-mass energy near 10.58 GeV with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage ring. We find no evidence for a signal and set an upper limit on the branching ratio of B(tau(+/-)->mu(+/-)gamma) < 6.8 x 10(-8) at 90% confidence level.

Abstract: We study the decays B- --> D*0 pi- and B- --> D*0 K-, where the D*0 decays into D0 pi0, with the D0 reconstructed in the CP-even (CP+) eigenstates K- K+ and pi- pi+ and in the (non-CP) channels K- pi+, K- pi+ pi+ pi-, and K- pi+ pi0. Using a sample of about 123 million BBbar pairs, we measure the ratios of decay rates R*(non-CP)=BR(B- --> D*0(non-CP) K-)/BR(B- --> D*0(non-CP) pi-) = 0.0813+-0.0040(stat)+0.0042-0.0031}(syst), and provide the first measurements of R*(CP+)= BR(B- --> D*0(CP+) K-)/BR(B- --> D*0(CP+) pi-) = 0.086+-0.021(stat)+-0. 007(syst), and of the CP asymmetry A*(CP+) = (BR(B- --> D*0(CP+) K-) - BR(B+ --> D*0(CP+) K+))/(BR(B- --> D*0(CP+) K-) + BR(B+ --> D*0(CP+) K+)) = -0.10+-0.23(stat)+0.03-0.04(syst).
