2 Meeting BaBar Italia, Capri 10/04/03 Alfio Lazzaro2 Physics Motivation Analysis Strategy: Samples, Event Selection, ML fits Results on Branching Fractions and Charge asymmetries ConclusionOverview

3 Meeting BaBar Italia, Capri 10/04/03 Alfio Lazzaro3 Measurements of Branching Fractions allow constraints on phenomenological models Charge asymmetries (A ch ) expected large (>20%) in B K (Soni, PRL 43, 242 (1979)) and B (Gronau, PRL 79, 4333 (1997)) Physics Motivation Need precise measurements Previous Measured Branching Fractions ( 10 6 ):

4 Meeting BaBar Italia, Capri 10/04/03 Alfio Lazzaro4 Data Samples and Sub-channels We considered 3 channels: Reconstructed in We have used 81.9 fb on-resonance (88.9 millions of BB pairs) _ (23%)(39%)

5 Meeting BaBar Italia, Capri 10/04/03 Alfio Lazzaro5 Event selection Beam energy to constraint B mass and energy: Event shapes to distinguish B events from continuum udsc: Fisher discriminant combining 4 variables: direction of B thrust axis wrt beam direction direction of B momentum wrt beam direction 2 Legendre moments of the energy flow of rest of event wrt B thrust axis |cos ( thrust )| < 0.9 Loose cuts based on shapes variables, PID and kinematical quantities of secondary daughters, Cherenkov angle cut for h selection. We prepare the input to Maximum Likelihood Fit
