This book was released on 2008 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study B° 2![rho]°[rho]° decays in a sample of 465 x 106 [Upsilon](4S) 2!B{bar B} events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy ee− collider located at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). We measure the branching fraction [Beta] = (0.92 ± 0.32 ± 0.14) x 10−6 and longitudinal polarization fraction f{sub L} = 0.75{sub -0.14}{sup +0.11} ± 0.04, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The evidence for the B° 2![rho]°[rho]° signal has a significance of 3.1 standard deviations, including systematic uncertainties. We investigate the proper-time dependence of the longitudinal component in the decay and measure the CP-violating coefficients S{sub L}°° = (0.3 ± 0.7 ± 0.2) and C{sub L}°° = (0.2 ± 0.8 ± 0.3). They study the implication of these results for the unitarity triangle angle [alpha].

This book was released on 2014-03-28 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis describes the thorough analysis of the rare B meson decay into φ K* on data taken by the Belle Collaboration at the B-meson-factory KEKB over 10 years. This reaction is very interesting, because it in principle allows the observation of CP-violation effects. In the Standard Model however, no CP violation in this reaction is expected. An observation of CP asymmetries thus immediately implies new physics. This thesis presents an amplitude analysis of this decay and the search for CP violation in detail and discusses methods to solve related problems: The quantification of multivariate dependence and the improvement of numeric evaluation speed of normalization integrals in amplitude analysis. In addition it provides an overview of the theory, experimental setup, (blind) statistical data analysis and estimation of systematic uncertainties.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We report the first reconstruction in hadron collisions of the suppressed decays B-2!D(2!K+[pi]- )K- and B-2!D(2!K+[pi]- )[pi]- decays, sensitive to the CKM phase [gamma], using data from 7 fb-1 of integrated luminosity collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron collider. We reconstruct a signal for the B-2!D(2!K+[pi]- )K- suppressed mode with a significance of 3.2 standard deviations, and measure the ratios of the suppressed to favored branching fractions R(K) = [22.0 " 8.6(stat) " 2.6(syst)] x 10-3, R+(K) = [42.6 " 13.7(stat) " 2.8(syst)] x 10-3, R-(K) = [3.8 " 10.3(stat) " 2.7(syst)] x 10-3 as well as the direct CP-violating asymmetry A(K) = -0.82"0.44(stat)"0.09(syst) of this mode. Corresponding quantities for B- 2!D(2!K+[pi]- )[pi]- decay are also reported.

Book excerpt: The authors present preliminary results of improved measurements of the CP-violating asymmetries and branching fractions in the decays B° →??−, B° → K+?−, B° →?°?°, and B° → K°?°. This update includes all data taken at the?(4S) resonance by the BABAR experiment at the asymmetric PEP-II B-meson factory at SLAC, corresponding to 467 ± 5 million B{bar B} pairs.

They observe CP violation with a significance of 6.7? in B° → {pi}− and 6.1? in B° → K+{pi}−. Constraints on the Unitarity Triangle angle? are determined from the isospin relation between all B → {pi}{pi} rates and asymmetries.
