We report observations of the Cabibbo-suppressed decays B→ D(*)K and an upper limit for the decay branching fraction for [Formula: see text] using a 5.3fb-1 data sample accumulated at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- asymmetric collider.

We report results of a search for B→τν in a sample of 9.7 million charged B meson decays. The search uses both πν and [Formula: see text] decay modes of the τ, and demands exclusive reconstruction of the companion [Formula: see text] decay to suppress background. We set an upper limit on the branching fraction ℬ(B→τν)<8.4×10-4 at 90% confidence level. With slight modification to the analysis we also establish [Formula: see text] at 90% confidence level.

We have investigated radiative B meson decays with the CLEO detector. An updated result on the branching fraction ℬ(b→sγ)=(3.15±0.35±0.32 ±0.26)×10-4 is reported. We report on a search for CP asymmetry in b→sγ decays, determining that -0.27<ACP<+0.010 at 90% CL. The measurement of the branching fraction for the exclusive mode B→K*(892)γ has been updated with a value of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] and a first measurement of [Formula: see text] is reported with a value of [Formula: see text]. A search for CP asymmetry in B→K*(892)γ decays yields a measurement of ACP=+0.08±0.13±0.03. We find no significant evidence for the decays B→(ρ/ω)γ and we limit ℬ(B →(ρ/ω)γ)/ℬ(B→K*(892)γ)<0.32 at 90% CL. In addition we find no evidence for the non-penguin decays B0→ϕγ and B0→D*0γ.

We present results for measurements of the decays to charmless final states of B0 meson to ηK0, ηω, [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], and of B+ to ηρ+, η′π+. Analyses are based on data taken with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric e+e- collider at SLAC. We measure the following branching fractions in units of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text]. The charge asymmetries are [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. First error is statistical, the second systematic. All results are preliminary.
