Branching fractions have been measured for the inclusive production of the charmonium mesons (Formula presented) (Formula presented) (Formula presented) and (Formula presented) The branching fractions are also presented as a function of the center-of-mass momentum of the mesons and of the helicity of the (Formula presented) © 2003 The American Physical Society.

We report a study of the processes e+e-→ηγ and e+e-→η′γ at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV, using a 232fb-1 data sample collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider at SLAC. We observe 20-5+6ηγ and 50-7+8η′γ events over small backgrounds, and measure the cross sections σ(e+e- →ηγ)=4.5-1.1+1.2±0.3fb and σ(e+e- →η′γ)=5.4±0.8±0.3fb. The corresponding transition form factors at q2=112GeV2 are q2|Fη(q2)|=0.229±0. 030±0.008GeV, and q2|Fη′(q2)|=0.251±0.019±0. 008GeV, respectively. © 2006 The American Physical Society.

Using 385fb-1 of e+e- collisions, we study the amplitudes of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay D0→K-K+π0. We measure the strong phase difference between the D̄0 and D0 decays to K*(892)+K- to be -35.5°±1.9°(stat)±2.2°(syst), and their amplitude ratio to be 0.599±0.013(stat)±0.011(syst). We observe contributions from the Kπ and K-K+ scalar and vector amplitudes, and analyze their angular moments. We find no evidence for charged κ, nor for higher spin states. We also perform a partial-wave analysis of the K-K+ system in a limited mass range. © 2007 The American Physical Society.

We search for the decay Υ(1S)→γA0, A0→gg or ss̄, where A0 is the pseudoscalar light Higgs boson predicted by the next-to-minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. We use a sample of (17.6±0.3)×106 Υ(1S) mesons produced in the BABAR experiment via e+e -→Υ(2S)→π+π-Υ(1S). We see no significant signal and set 90%-confidence-level upper limits on the product branching fraction B(Υ(1S)→γA0)·B(A0→gg or ss̄) ranging from 10-6 to 10-2 for A0 masses in the range 0.5-9.0 GeV/c2. © 2013 American Physical Society.

Semileptonic B̄ decays to DXν̄ (=e or μ) are selected by reconstructing D0 and D+ combinations from a sample of 230×106 Υ(4S)→BB̄ decays recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- collider at SLAC. A global fit to these samples in a three-dimensional space of kinematic variables is used to determine the branching fractions B(B-→D0ν̄)=(2.34±0.03±0.13)% and B(B-→D *0ν̄)=(5.40±0.02±0.21)% where the errors are statistical and systematic, respectively. The fit also determines form-factor parameters in a parametrization based on heavy quark effective theory, resulting in ρD2=1.20±0.04±0.07 for B̄→Dν̄ and ρD*2=1.22±0.02±0.07 for B̄→D*ν̄. These values are used to obtain the product of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |Vcb| times the form factor at the zero recoil point for both B̄→Dν̄ decays, G(1)|Vcb|=(43.1±0.8±2.3) ×10-3, and for B̄→D*ν̄ decays, F(1)|Vcb|=(35.9±0.2±1.2)×10-3. © 2009 The American Physical Society.

We measure the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B0→KS0π0γ decays for two regions of KS0-π0 invariant mass, m(KS0π0), using the final BABAR data set of 467×106 BB̄ pairs collected at the PEP-II e+e- collider at SLAC. We find 339±24 B0→K*0γ candidates and measure SK*γ=-0.03±0.29±0.03 and CK*γ=-0. 14±0.16±0.03. In the range 1.1

We study the lepton forward-backward asymmetry AFB and the longitudinal K∗ polarization FL, as well as an observable P2 derived from them, in the rare decays B→K∗+, where + is either e+e- or μ+μ-, using the full sample of 471 million BB-events collected at the (4S) resonance with the BABAR, detector at the PEP-II e+e- collider. We separately fit and report results for the K∗0(892)+ and K∗+(892)+ final states, as well as their combination K∗+, in five disjoint dilepton mass-squared bins. An angular analysis of B+→K∗++ decays is presented here for the first time.

We report on a study of the decay B̄0→D*+ωπ- with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B-factory at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Based on a sample of 232×106 BB̄ decays, we measure the branching fraction B(B̄0→D*+ωπ-)=(2.88±0. 21(stat.)±0.31(syst.))×10-3. We study the invariant mass spectrum of the ωπ- system in this decay. This spectrum is in good agreement with expectations based on factorization and the measured spectrum in τ-→ωπ-ντ. We also measure the polarization of the D*+ as a function of the ωπ- mass. In the mass region 1.1 to 1.9 GeV we measure the fraction of longitudinal polarization of the D*+ to be ΓL/Γ=0.654±0.042(stat.)±0.016(syst.). This is in agreement with the expectations from heavy-quark effective theory and factorization assuming that the decay proceeds as B̄0→ D*+ρ(1450)-, ρ(1450)-→ωπ-. © 2006 The American Physical Society.

We present results of a search for the X(3872) in B0→X(3872)KS0, X(3872)→J/ψπ+π-, improved measurements of B-→X(3872)K-, and a study of the J/ψπ+π- mass region above the X(3872). We use 232×106 BB̄ pairs collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- asymmetric-energy storage rings. The results include the 90% confidence interval 1.34×10-6

The BaBar detector operated successfully at the PEP-II 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. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.
