Measurement of the J/Psi Meson and b-Hadron Production Cross Sections in ppbar Collisions at sqrt s = 1960 GeV

D. Acosta, CDF Collaboration

We present a new measurement of the inclusive and differential production cross sections of mesons and -hadrons in proton-antiproton collisions at GeV. The…

Limit on the B0->rho0rho0 Branching Fraction and Implications for the CKM Angle alpha

The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert et al

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- coll…

Estimation of pure qubit states with collective and individual measurements

E. Bagan, A. Monras, R. Munoz-Tapia

We analyze the estimation of a qubit pure state by means of local measurements on identical copies and compare its averaged fidelity for an isotropic prior probability distribu…

Measurement of Branching Fractions and Charge Asymmetries for Exclusive B Decays to Charmonium

B. Aubert, BABAR Collaboration

We report measurements of branching fractions and charge asymmetries of exclusive decays of neutral and charged B mesons into two-body final states containing a charmonium state an…

Homotopy invariance of higher signatures and 3-manifold groups

Michel Matthey, Hervé Oyono-Oyono, Wolfgang Pitsch

For closed oriented manifolds, we establish oriented homotopy invariance of higher signatures that come from the fundamental group of a large class of orientable 3-manifolds, inclu…

Search for a Charged Partner of the X(3872) in the B Meson Decay B --> X- K, X- --> J/psi pi- pi0

B. Aubert, BaBar Collaboration

We search for a charged partner of the X(3872) in the decay B --> X- K, X- --> J/psi pi- pi0, using 234 million BBbar events collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BaBar detecto…
