We report on investigations of B-meson decays into baryons with the BABAR detector. The comparison of different decay channels reveals that higher multiplicities are preferred for these decays. Furthermore, an enhancement in the invariant baryon-antibaryon mass distribution can be observed in several baryonic decay modes. In addition, the study of baryon resonances seen in baryonic B-meson decays is presented.

Babar Detector

Recent BaBar results on rare B decays involving flavor changing neutral currents are presented. New measurements of the CP asymmetries in b→sγ and B→K*γ decays are reported as well as B→K(*)l+l- and b→sl+l- branching ratio measurements. The data sample comprises [Formula: see text] decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II e+e- storage ring.

Charged B Meson

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 report preliminary results on searches for radiative and charmless hadronic B meson decay modes using 5.27 million [Formula: see text] pairs recorded on the ϒ(4S) resonance by the Belle experiment at KEKB. Both inclusive b → sγ and exclusive B → K*γ modes are observed and limits are set on the ratio B → ργ/ B→ K*γ. We see evidence for the [Formula: see text] mode B+ → ϕ K+, and several pseudo-scalar + pseudo-scalar modes. Significant signals are observed in the K+ π-, K+ π0, and K0π0 modes. We see evidence for the K0π+, π+π-, and π+ π0 modes however, the significance is small. No signal is observed in either the K+K- or K0K+ modes.
