"Search for exotics in baryonic B decays at BaBar" by Tetiana Hryn'Ova

Thursday 27 Mar 2008, 11:00 → 12:00 Europe/Paris

Salle 9

This talk presents measurements of branching fractions of the charmless three-body decays of B meson into p pbar h final states, where h=Ï^À^+,K+,KS0,K*0 and K*+. The distribution of the three final-state particles is of particular interest since it can provide information on the possible presence of exotic intermediate states such as the hypothetical pentaquark states Î^Ø*++ and Î^Ø+ in the mpK+ and mpKS0 spectra, respectively, or glueball states (such as the tensor glueball fJ(2220)) in the mppbar spectrum.
