Abstract: Background and ObjectiveTo test the hypothesis that a multicenter-validated computer deep learning algorithm detects MRI-negative focal cortical dysplasia (FCD).MethodsWe used clinically acquired 3-dimensional (3D) T1-weighted and 3D fluid-attenuated inversion recovery MRI of 148 patients (median age 23 years [range 2–55 years]; 47% female) with histologically verified FCD at 9 centers to train a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier. Images were initially deemed MRI-negative in 51% of patients, in whom intracranial EEG determined the focus. For risk stratification, the CNN incorporated bayesian uncertainty estimation as a measure of confidence. To evaluate performance, detection maps were compared to expert FCD manual labels. Sensitivity was tested in an independent cohort of 23 cases with FCD (13 ± 10 years). Applying the algorithm to 42 healthy controls and 89 controls with temporal lobe epilepsy disease tested specificity.ResultsOverall sensitivity was 93% (137 of 148 FCD detected) using a leave-one-site-out cross-validation, with an average of 6 false positives per patient. Sensitivity in MRI-negative FCD was 85%. In 73% of patients, the FCD was among the clusters with the highest confidence; in half, it ranked the highest. Sensitivity in the independent cohort was 83% (19 of 23; average of 5 false positives per patient). Specificity was 89% in healthy and disease controls.DiscussionThis first multicenter-validated deep learning detection algorithm yields the highest sensitivity to date in MRI-negative FCD. By pairing predictions with risk stratification, this classifier may assist clinicians in adjusting hypotheses relative to other tests, increasing diagnostic confidence. Moreover, generalizability across age and MRI hardware makes this approach ideal for presurgical evaluation of MRI-negative epilepsy.Classification of EvidenceThis study provides Class III evidence that deep learning on multimodal MRI accurately identifies FCD in patients with epilepsy initially diagnosed as MRI negative.

Abstract: International audience; BACKGROUND: Patients who have had a stroke with unknown time of onset have been previously excluded from thrombolysis. We aimed to establish whether intravenous alteplase is safe and effective in such patients when salvageable tissue has been identified with imaging biomarkers. METHODS: We did a systematic review and meta-analysis of individual patient data for trials published before Sept 21, 2020. Randomised trials of intravenous alteplase versus standard of care or placebo in adults with stroke with unknown time of onset with perfusion-diffusion MRI, perfusion CT, or MRI with diffusion weighted imaging-fluid attenuated inversion recovery (DWI-FLAIR) mismatch were eligible. The primary outcome was favourable functional outcome (score of 0-1 on the modified Rankin Scale [mRS]) at 90 days indicating no disability using an unconditional mixed-effect logistic-regression model fitted to estimate the treatment effect. Secondary outcomes were mRS shift towards a better functional outcome and independent outcome (mRS 0-2) at 90 days. Safety outcomes included death, severe disability or death (mRS score 4-6), and symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage. This study is registered with PROSPERO, CRD42020166903. FINDINGS: Of 249 identified abstracts, four trials met our eligibility criteria for inclusion: WAKE-UP, EXTEND, THAWS, and ECASS-4. The four trials provided individual patient data for 843 individuals, of whom 429 (51%) were assigned to alteplase and 414 (49%) to placebo or standard care. A favourable outcome occurred in 199 (47%) of 420 patients with alteplase and in 160 (39%) of 409 patients among controls (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 1·49 [95% CI 1·10-2·03]; p=0·011), with low heterogeneity across studies (I(2)=27%). Alteplase was associated with a significant shift towards better functional outcome (adjusted common OR 1·38 [95% CI 1·05-1·80]; p=0·019), and a higher odds of independent outcome (adjusted OR 1·50 [1·06-2·12]; p=0·022). In the alteplase group, 90 (21%) patients were severely disabled or died (mRS score 4-6), compared with 102 (25%) patients in the control group (adjusted OR 0·76 [0·52-1·11]; p=0·15). 27 (6%) patients died in the alteplase group and 14 (3%) patients died among controls (adjusted OR 2·06 [1·03-4·09]; p=0·040). The prevalence of symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage was higher in the alteplase group than among controls (11 [3%] vs two [\textless1%], adjusted OR 5·58 [1·22-25·50]; p=0·024). INTERPRETATION: In patients who have had a stroke with unknown time of onset with a DWI-FLAIR or perfusion mismatch, intravenous alteplase resulted in better functional outcome at 90 days than placebo or standard care. A net benefit was observed for all functional outcomes despite an increased risk of symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage. Although there were more deaths with alteplase than placebo, there were fewer cases of severe disability or death. FUNDING: None.

Abstract: We present a test platform for the Athena X-IFU detection chain, which will serve as the first demonstration of the representative end-to-end detection and readout chain for the X-IFU, using prototypes of the future flight electronics and currently available subsystems. This test bench, housed in a commercial two-stage ADR cryostat, includes a focal plane array placed at the 50 mK cold stage of the ADR with a kilopixel array of transition-edge sensor microcalorimeter spectrometers and associated cold readout electronics. Prototype room temperature electronics for the X-IFU provide the readout, and will evolve over time to become more representative of the X-IFU mission baseline. The test bench yields critical feedback on subsystem designs and interfaces, in particular the warm readout electronics, and will provide an in-house detection system for continued testing and development of the warm readout electronics and for the validation of X-ray calibration sources. In this paper, we describe the test bench subsystems and design, characterization of the cryostat, and current status of the project., Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures, to appear in Proc.

Abstract: Vivipary, wherein seeds germinate prior to dispersal while still associated with the maternal plant, is an adaptation to extreme environments. It is normally inhibited by the establishment of dormancy. The genetic framework of vivipary has been well studied; however, the role of epigenetics in vivipary remains unknown. Here, we report that silencing ofMETHYLTRANSFERASE1(SlMET1) promoted precocious seed germination and seedling growth within the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) epimutantColorless non-ripening(Cnr) fruits. This was associated with decreases in abscisic acid concentration and levels of mRNA encoding 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid-dioxygenase (SlNCED), which is involved in abscisic acid biosynthesis. Differentially methylated regions were identified in promoters of differentially expressed genes, includingSlNCED.SlNCEDknockdown also induced viviparous seedling growth inCnrfruits. Strikingly,Cnrripening reversion suppressed vivipary. Moreover, neitherSlMET1/SlNCED-virus-induced gene silencing nor transgenicSlMET1-RNA interference produced vivipary in wild-type tomatoes; the latter affected leaf architecture, arrested flowering, and repressed seed development. Thus, a dual pathway in ripening andSlMET1-mediated epigenetics coordinates the blockage of seed vivipary.Analysis of a unique tomato epiallele reveals an epigenetic pathway that, along with the ripening process, modulates vivipary in tomato fruits.

Abstract: A study of the two body decays $B^\pm\rightarrow X_{c\bar c}K^\pm$, where X$_{c\bar c}$ refers to one charmonium state, is reported by BaBar collaboration using a data sample of 424 fb$^{-1}$. The absolute determination of branching fractions for these decays are significantly improved compared to previous BaBaR measurements. Evidence is found for the decay $B^+\rightarrow X(3872)K^+$ at the $3\sigma$ level. The absolute branching fraction ${\cal B}(B^+\rightarrow X(3872)K^+) = (2.1\pm0.6({\rm stat})\pm0.3({\rm syst}))\times 10^{-4}$ is measured for the first time. It follows that ${\cal B}(X(3872)\rightarrow J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-)=(4.1\pm1.3)\%$, supporting the hypothesis of a molecular component for this resonance., Comment: 8 pages 6 figures

Abstract: Comment inThe yin and yang of magnesium and calcium: New genetic insights for stroke? [Neurology. 2019]; International audience; Objective To determine whether serum magnesium and calcium concentrations are causally associated with ischemic stroke or any of its subtypes using the mendelian randomization approach. Methods Analyses were conducted using summary statistics data for 13 single-nucleotide polymorphisms robustly associated with serum magnesium (n = 6) or serum calcium (n = 7) concentrations. The corresponding data for ischemic stroke were obtained from the MEGASTROKE consortium (34,217 cases and 404,630 noncases). Results In standard mendelian randomization analysis, the odds ratios for each 0.1 mmol/L (about 1 SD) increase in genetically predicted serum magnesium concentrations were 0.78 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.69-0.89; p = 1.3 × 10 −4) for all ischemic stroke, 0.63 (95% CI 0.50-0.80; p = 1.6 × 10 −4) for cardioembolic stroke, and 0.60 (95% CI 0.44-0.82; p = 0.001) for large artery stroke; there was no association with small vessel stroke (odds ratio 0.90, 95% CI 0.67-1.20; p = 0.46). Only the association with cardioembolic stroke was robust in sensitivity analyses. There was no association of genetically predicted serum calcium concentrations with all ischemic stroke (per 0.5 mg/dL [about 1 SD] increase in serum calcium: odds ratio 1.03, 95% CI 0.88-1.21) or with any subtype. Conclusions This study found that genetically higher serum magnesium concentrations are associated with a reduced risk of cardioembolic stroke but found no significant association of genetically higher serum calcium concentrations with any ischemic stroke subtype.

Abstract: Objective: Determinants of the increased risk of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in SLE are unclear. Using data from a recent lymphoma genomewide association study (GWAS), we assessed whether certain lupus-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were also associated with DLBCL. Methods: GWAS data on European Caucasians from the International Lymphoma Epidemiology Consortium (InterLymph) provided a total of 3857 DLBCL cases and 7666 general-population controls. Data were pooled in a random-effects meta-analysis. Results: Among the 28 SLE-related SNPs investigated, the two most convincingly associated with risk of DLBCL included the CD40 SLE risk allele rs4810485 on chromosome 20q13 (OR per risk allele=1.09, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.16, p=0.0134), and the HLA SLE risk allele rs1270942 on chromosome 6p21.33 (OR per risk allele=1.17, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.36, p=0.0362). Of additional possible interest were rs2205960 and rs12537284. The rs2205960 SNP, related to a cytokine of the tumour necrosis factor superfamily TNFSF4, was associated with an OR per risk allele of 1.07, 95% CI 1.00 to 1.16, p=0.0549. The OR for the rs12537284 (chromosome 7q32, IRF5 gene) risk allele was 1.08, 95% CI 0.99 to 1.18, p=0.0765. Conclusions: These data suggest several plausible genetic links between DLBCL and SLE. © 2017 BMJ Publishing Group. All rights reserved.

Abstract: Landscape ecologists are often interested in measuring the effects of an environmental variable on a biological response; however, the strength and direction of effect depend on the size of the area within which the environmental variable is measured. Thus a central objective is to identify the optimal spatial extent within which to measure the environmental variable, i.e. the “scale of effect”. Our objectives are (1) to provide a comprehensive summary of the hypotheses concerning what determines the scale of effect, (2) to provide predictions that can be tested in empirical studies, and (3) to show, with a review of the literature, that most of these predictions have so far been inadequately tested. We propose 14 predictions derived from five hypotheses explaining what determines the scale of effect, and review the literature (if any) supporting each prediction. These predictions involve five types of factors: (A) species traits, (B) landscape variables, (C) biological responses (e.g. abundance vs. occurrence), (D) indirect influences, and (E) regional context of the study. We identify methodological issues that hinder estimation of the scale of effect. Of the 14 predictions, only nine have been tested empirically and only five have received some empirical support. Most support is from simulation studies. Empirical evidence usually does not support predictions. The study of the spatial scale at which landscape variables influence biological outcomes is in its infancy. We provide directions for future research by clarifying predictions concerning the determinants of the scale of effect.

Abstract: Naturally-occurring epimutants are rare and have mainly been described in plants. However how these mutants maintain their epigenetic marks and how they are inherited remain unknown. Here we report that CHROMOMETHYLASE3 (SlCMT3) and other methyltransferases are required for maintenance of a spontaneous epimutation and its cognate Colourless non-ripening (Cnr) phenotype in tomato. We screened a series of DNA methylation-related genes that could rescue the hypermethylated Cnr mutant. Silencing of the developmentally-regulated SlCMT3 gene results in increased expression of LeSPL-CNR, the gene encodes the SBP-box transcription factor residing at the Cnr locus and triggers Cnr fruits to ripen normally. Expression of other key ripening-genes was also up-regulated. Targeted and whole-genome bisulfite sequencing showed that the induced ripening of Cnr fruits is associated with reduction of methylation at CHG sites in a 286-bp region of the LeSPL-CNR promoter and a decrease of DNA methylation in differentially-methylated regions associated with the LeMADS-RIN binding sites. Our results indicate that there is likely a concerted effect of different methyltransferases at the Cnr locus and the plant-specific SlCMT3 is essential for sustaining Cnr epi-allele. Maintenance of DNA methylation dynamics is critical for the somatic stability of Cnr epimutation and for the inheritance of tomato non-ripening phenotype.

Abstract: Concern with the environmental, economic, and social impacts of the post-WWII model of agricultural intensification has led to renewed interest in grazing as a feeding strategy for temperate livestock farming systems. Putting grass back at the core of livestock feeding not only requires technical knowledge but also reconsideration of the importance of uncertainty in management choices. We developed a simple stochastic model of grassland dynamics to quantify both robustness and production of alternative management strategies under continuous grazing and management-intensive rotational grazing. The model was calibrated on data from cool-season grasslands in south-central Wisconsin. We defined robustness as the probability that a given management strategy did not lead to overgrazing, while the production indicator was number of livestock unit days per hectare enabled by the grazing strategy. Robustness was strongly dependent on the timing and intensity of grazing, and the highest levels of production were incompatible with a high value of robustness. Beyond a certain threshold of production, we observed a trade-off between robustness and production, where robustness decreased regularly until the maximum possible production. This trade-off did not significantly differ between continuous grazing and rotational grazing. We identified key management practices that led to both high production and high robustness, but to attain these results will require not only acquisition of new technical knowledge but also a change in the way the system is managed: from controlling environmental variability with external inputs to understanding and managing stochastic systems in a way that reduces negative externalities while increasing production efficiencies.

Abstract: International audience; Prostate cancer disparities have been reported in men of African descent who show the highest incidence, mortality, compared with other ethnic groups. Few studies have explored the genetic and environmental factors for prostate cancer in men of African ancestry. The glutathione-S-transferases family conjugates carcinogens before their excretion and is expressed in prostate tissue. This study addressed the role of GSTM1 and GSTT1 deletions on prostate cancer risk in populations of African descent. This multi-institutional case-control study gathered data from the Genetic Susceptibility to Environmental Carcinogens (GSEC) database, the African-Caribbean Cancer Consortium (AC3) and Men of African Descent and Carcinoma of the Prostate Consortium (MADCaP). The analysis included 10 studies (1715 cases and 2363 controls), five in African-Americans, three in African-Caribbean and two in African men. Both the GSTM1 and the GSTT1 deletions showed significant inverse associations with prostate cancer [odds ratio (OR): 0.90, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.83-0.97 and OR 0.88, 95% CI: 0.82-0.96, respectively]. The association was restricted to Caribbean and African populations. A significant positive association was observed between GSTM1 deletion and prostate cancer in smokers in African-American studies (OR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.01-1.56), whereas a reduced risk was observed in never-smokers (OR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.46-0.95). The risk of prostate cancer increased across quartiles of pack-years among subjects carrying the deletion of GSTM1 but not among subjects carrying a functional GSTM1. Gene-environment interaction between smoking and GSTM1 may be involved in the etiology of prostate cancer in populations of African descent.

Abstract: We present two models for estimating the probabilities of future earth- quakes in California, to be tested in the Collaboratory for the Study of Earthquake Predictability (CSEP). The first is a time-independent model of adaptively smoothed seismicity that we modified from Helmstetter et al. (2007). The model provides five- year forecasts for earthquakes with magnitudes M ≥ 4:95. We show that large earthquakes tend to occur near the locations of small M ≥ 2 events, so that a high- resolution estimate of the spatial distribution of future large quakes is obtained from the locations of the numerous small events. We further assume a universal Gutenberg- Richter magnitude distribution. In retrospective tests, we show that a Poisson distri- bution does not fit the observed rate variability, in contrast to assumptions in current earthquake predictability experiments. We therefore issued forecasts using a better- fitting negative binomial distribution for the number of events. The second model is a time-dependent epidemic-type aftershock sequence (ETAS) model that we modified from Helmstetter et al. (2006) and that provides next-day forecasts for M ≥ 3:95. In this model, the forecasted rate is the sum of a background rate (propor- tional to the time-independent model rate) and of the expected rate of triggered events due to all prior earthquakes. Each earthquake triggers events with a rate that increases exponentially with its magnitude and decays in time according to the Omori-Utsu law. An isotropic kernel models the spatial density of aftershocks for small (M ≤ 5:5) events, while for larger quakes, we smooth early aftershocks to forecast later events. We estimate parameter values by optimizing retrospective forecasts and find that the short-term model realizes a probability gain of about 6.0 per earthquake over the time-independent model. Online Material: Identification of explosions and ETAS parameters.

Abstract: We present a study of the inclusive $D^{*\pm}$ production in the decay of $\Upsilon(1S)$ using $(98.6 \pm 0.9)\times 10^6$ $\Upsilon(2S)$ mesons collected with the BaBar detector at the $\Upsilon(2S)$ resonance. Using the decay chain $\Upsilon(2S)\to \pi^+ \pi^- \Upsilon(1S), \Upsilon(1S) \to D^{*\pm} X$, where X is unobserved, we measure the branching fraction $\BR[\Upsilon(1S)\to D^{*\pm} X] = (2.52 \pm 0.13({\rm stat}) \pm 0.15({\rm syst}))%$ and the $D^{*\pm}$ momentum distribution in the rest frame of the $\Upsilon(1S)$. We find evidence for an excess of $D^{*\pm}$ production over the expected rate from the virtual photon annihilation process $\Upsilon(1S)\to\gamma^*\to c\bar c\to D^{*\pm} X$., Comment: 8 pages, 4 postscript figures, published in PRD-RC

Abstract: We present a study of 649 \pm 35 e+e- --> ccbar events produced at sqrt{s}~10.6 GeV containing both a Lambda_c baryon and a Lambda_c antibaryon. The number observed is roughly four times that expected if the leading charmed hadron types are uncorrelated, confirming an observation by the CLEO Collaboration. We find a 2-jet topology in these events but very few additional baryons, demonstrating that the primary c and cbar are predominantly contained in a correlated baryon-antibaryon system. In addition to the charmed baryons we observe on average 2.6 \pm 0.2 charged intermediate mesons, predominantly pions, carrying 65% of the remaining energy., Comment: 8 pages, 3 postscript figures, submitted to Phys.Rev D-RC

Abstract: Charged lepton flavor violating processes are unobservable in the standard model, but they are predicted to be enhanced in several extensions to the standard model, including supersymmetry and models with leptoquarks or compositeness. We present a search for such processes in a sample of 99M Y(2S) decays and 117M Y(3S) decays collected with the BABAR detector. We place upper limits on the branching fractions BF(Y(nS) -> e tau) and BF(Y(nS) -> mu tau) (n = 2, 3) at the 10^(-6) level and use these results to place lower limits of order 1 TeV on the mass scale of charged lepton flavor violating effective operators., 8 pages, 3 figures, submitted to PRL

Abstract: A search for the Z(3930) resonance in gamma gamma production of the DDbar system has been performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 384 fb^-1 recorded by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy electron-positron collider. The DDbar invariant mass distribution shows clear evidence of the Z(3930) state with a significance of 5.8 sigma. We determine mass and width values of (3926.7 +- 2.7 +- 1.1) MeV/c^2 and (21.3 +- 6.8 +- 3.6) MeV, respectively. A decay angular analysis provides evidence that the Z(3930) is a tensor state with positive parity and C-parity (J^PC = 2^++); therefore we identify the Z(3930) state as the chi_c2(2P) meson. The value of the partial width Gamma_(gamma gamma)xB(Z(3930)-> DDbar) is found to be (0.24 +- 0.05 +- 0.04) keV., Comment: 16 pages, 4 tables, 26 postscript figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.

Abstract: We present a search for the decay $B^+ \to \ell^+ \nu_{\ell}$ ($\ell = e,\mu\tau$) in $(458.9 \pm 5.1) \times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B-Factory. We search for these B decays in a sample of $B^+B^-$ events where one $B$-meson is reconstructed as $B^- \to D^0 \ell^- \nu X$. Using the method of Feldman and Cousins, we obtain $\mathcal{B}(B^+ \to \tau^+ \nu) = (1.7 \pm 0.8 \pm 0.2) \times 10^{-4}$, which excludes zero at $2.3\sigma$. We interpret the central value in the context of the Standard Model and find the B meson decay constant to be $f^2_B = (62 \pm 31) \times 10^3 \mathrm{MeV}^2$. We find no evidence for $B^+ \to e^+ \nu_{e}$ and $B^+ \to \mu^+ \nu_{\mu}$ and set upper limits at the 90% C.L. $\mathcal{B}(B^+ \to e^+ \nu_{e}) < 0.8 \times 10^{-5}$ and $\mathcal{B}(B^+ \to \mu^+ \nu_{\mu}) < 1.1 \times 10^{-5}$., Comment: 8 pages, 8 postscript figures, submitted to Physical Review D (Rapid Communications)

Abstract: We present a model for estimation of the probabilities of future earthquakes of magnitudes m ≥ 4.95 in Italy. This model is a modified version of that proposed for California, USA, by Helmstetter et al. [2007] and Werner et al. [2010a], and it approximates seismicity using a spatially heterogeneous, temporally homogeneous Poisson point process. The temporal, spatial and magnitude dimensions are entirely decoupled. Magnitudes are independently and identically distributed according to a tapered Gutenberg-Richter magnitude distribution. We have estimated the spatial distribution of future seismicity by smoothing the locations of past earthquakes listed in two Italian catalogs: a short instrumental catalog, and a longer instrumental and historic catalog. The bandwidth of the adaptive spatial kernel is estimated by optimizing the predictive power of the kernel estimate of the spatial earthquake density in retrospective forecasts. When available and reliable, we used small earthquakes of m ≥ 2.95 to reveal active fault structures and 29 probable future epicenters. By calibrating the model with these two catalogs of different durations to create two forecasts, we intend to quantify the loss (or gain) of predictability incurred when only a short, but recent, data record is available. Both forecasts were scaled to five and ten years, and have been submitted to the Italian prospective forecasting experiment of the global Collaboratory for the Study of Earthquake Predictability (CSEP). An earlier forecast from the model was submitted by Helmstetter et al. [2007] to the Regional Earthquake Likelihood Model (RELM) experiment in California, and with more than half of the five-year experimental period over, the forecast has performed better than the others., Annals of Geophysics, 53 (3), ISSN:1593-5213

Abstract: We present an update of the search for the flavor-changing neutral current B+ -> K+vv decay using 351 x 10^6 BB pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II B factory. Due to the presence of two neutrinos in the final state, we require the reconstruction of the companion B in the event through the decay channel B- -> D0l-v. We find 38 candidates in the data with an expected background of 31 +/- 12. This allows us to set an upper limit on the branching fraction for B+ -> K+vv of 4.5 x 10^-5 at 90% confidence level., Comment: 11 pages, 6 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. D

21. Tissue, ontogenic and sex-related diVerences in 13C and 15N values of the oceanic squid Todarodes Wlippovae (Cephalopoda: Ommastrephidae)

Abstract: International audience; Stable isotopes are increasingly used in the study of trophic interactions of many aquatic animals and most recently cephalopods. To evaluate the application of the method to squids, it is important to assess isotopic diVerences among and within consumer tissues that may confound the resolution of ecological relationships. Interand intra-tissue isotopic variation was examined in 55 individuals of the oceanic squid Todarodes Wlippovae that were collected at the beginning of April 2000 in the southwestern Indian Ocean (between 44°S, 76°E, and Saint Paul and Amsterdam islands, 38°S, 78°E). Delipidated soft tissues (mantle, arm, buccal mass, gill and reproductive organs) showed small 13C and 15N diVerences, which were probably tissue-speciWc. A lower carbon value was observed in the digestive gland as a consequence of incomplete lipid removal. Hard tissues, such as beaks and gladii, had lower 15N values than soft tissues, which can be explained by the presence of chitin, a 15N-depleted molecule. Females (n = 38) and males (n = 17) had identical 13C values, but females showed higher 15N values than males. The diVerence was size-related rather than sex-related, however, as females were generally larger than males. A comparison of similar-sized females and males produced identical nitrogen values. These data suggest dietary shifts from lower to higher trophic levels during growth, because 15N values of large T. Wlippovae were much higher than that of small specimens. As expected, nitrogen values of lower beaks and gladii of large squids increased from the oldest to the most recently formed region, reXecting the progressive growth of chitinized tissues in parallel with dietary changes. Sequential sampling along the growth increments of squid beaks and gladii can likely be used to produce a chronological record of dietary information throughout an individual's history.

Abstract: Using a sample of 383 million $B\bar{B}$ events collected by the $BaBar$ experiment, we measure sums of seven exclusive final states $B\to X_{d(s)}\gamma$, where $X_d$($X_s$) is a non-strange (strange) charmless hadronic system in the mass range $0.6-1.8$ GeV$/c^2$. After correcting for unmeasured decay modes in this mass range, we obtain a branching fraction for $b \to d \gamma$ of $(7.2\pm 2.7(stat.)\pm 2.3(syst.))\times 10^{-6}$. Taking the ratio of $X_d$ to $X_s$ we find $\Gamma(b \to d \gamma)/\Gamma(b \to s \gamma) = 0.033 \pm 0.013 (stat.) \pm 0.009 (syst.),$ from which we determine $|V_{td}/V_{ts}|=0.177\pm 0.043$., Comment: 7 pages, 2 postscript figures, submitted to PRL, contributed to ICHEP2008.

Abstract: We have performed a search for the eta_b(1S) meson in the radiative decay of the Upsilon(2S) resonance using a sample of 91.6 million Upsilon(2S) events recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B factory at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. We observe a peak in the photon energy spectrum at E_gamma = 609.3 {+4.6} {-4.5} (stat) +/- 1.9 (syst) MeV, corresponding to an eta_b(1S) mass of 9394.2 {+4.8} {-4.9} (stat) +/- 2.0 (syst) MeV/c^2. The branching fraction for the decay Upsilon(2S) --> gamma eta_b(1S) is determined to be [3.9 +/-1.1 (stat) {+1.1} {-0.9} (syst)] x 10^(-4). We find the ratio of branching fractions B[Upsilon(2S) --> gamma eta_b(1S)]/B[Upsilon(3S) --> gamma eta_b(1S)] = 0.82 +/- 0.24 (stat) {+0.20}{-0.19} (syst)., 7 pages, 2 figures; published version

Abstract: We present constraints on the angle gamma of the Unitarity Triangle with a Dalitz analysis of neutral D decays to K_Spi^+pi^- from the processes B^0 -> barD^0 K^*0 (barB^0 -> D^0 barK^*0) and B0 -> D0 K*0 (barB^0 -> barD^0 barK^*0) with K^*0 -> K^+pi^- (barK^*0 -> K^-pi^+). Using a sample of 371 10^6 BBbar pairs collected with the Babar detector at PEP-II, we measure the angle gamma as a function of r_S, the magnitude of the average ratio between b -> u and b -> c amplitudes. Combining this result with the available information on r_S, we obtain gamma = (162 +- 56) degrees or (342 +- 56) degrees and r_S, Comment: 8 pages (authors list included), 8 postscript figures.

Abstract: We present a study of the charmless semileptonic B-meson decays B+ -> omega l+ nu and B+ -> eta l+ nu. The analysis is based on 383 million BBbar pairs recorded at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector. The omega mesons are reconstructed in the channel omega -> pi+ pi- pi0 and the eta mesons in the channels eta -> pi+ pi- pi0 and eta -> gamma gamma. We measure the branching fractions B(B+ -> omega l+ nu) = (1.14 +- 0.16 (stat) +- 0.08 (syst)) x 10^-4 and B(B+ -> eta l+ nu) = (0.31 +- 0.06 (stat) +- 0.08 (syst)) x 10^-4., Comment: 8 pages, 8 postscript figures, Editorial changes for publication in PRD, Published in Phys.

Abstract: We present measurements of the branching fraction and fraction of longitudinal polarization for the decay B+ -> K*0bar K*+ with a sample of 467 +/- 5 million BBbar pairs collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. We obtain the branching fraction Br(B+ -> K*0bar K*+) = (1.2 +/- 0.5 +/- 0.1) x 10^{-6} with a significance of 3.7 standard deviations including systematic uncertainties. We measure the fraction of longitudinal polarization f_L = 0.75+0.16-0.26 +/- 0.03. The first error quoted is statistical and the second is systematic., Comment: 8 pages, 14 postscript figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. D. RC

Abstract: A precise measurement of the cross section of the process e+ e- to pi+ pi- (gamma) from threshold to an energy of 3 GeV is obtained with the initial state radiation (ISR) method using 232 fb^-1 of data collected with the BABAR detector at e+ e- center-of-mass energies near 10.6 GeV. The ISR luminosity is determined from a study of the leptonic process e+ e- to mu+ mu- gamma (gamma). The leading-order hadronic contribution to the muon magnetic anomaly calculated using the pi pi cross section measured from threshold to 1.8 GeV is (514.1 +-2.2(stat} +-3.1(syst}) x 10^{-10}., Comment: 7 pages, 1 figure, 1 table, submitted to Physical Review Letters

Abstract: We present measurements of the time-dependent CP-violation parameters S and C in the decays omega K0S, eta'K0, reconstructed as eta'K0S and eta'K0L, and pi0K0S. The data sample corresponds to the full BABAR dataset of 467 x 10^6 BB pairs produced at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The results are S_{omega K0S} = 0.55^{+0.26}_{-0.29} +/- 0.02, C_{omega K0S} = -0.52^{+0.22}_{-0.20} +/- 0.03, S_{eta' K0} = 0.57 +/- 0.08 +/- 0.02, C_{eta' K0} = -0.08 +/- 0.06 +/- 0.02, S_{pi0 K0S} = 0.55 +/- 0.20 +/- 0.03, and C_{pi0 K0S} = 0.13 +/- 0.13 +/- 0.03, where the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. These results are consistent with our previous measurements and the world average of sin2beta measured in B0 -> J/psi K0S., 18 pages, 9 postscript figures, submitted to PRD; changes in v02 address comments of PRD referee

Abstract: We measure the rate of D0-D0bar mixing with the observable yCP=(tauKpi/tauKK)-1, where tauKK and tauKpi are respectively the mean lifetimes of CP-even D0->K+K- and CP-mixed D0->K-pi+ decays, using a data sample of 384/fb collected by the Babar detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory. From a sample of D0 and D0bar decays where the inital flavor of the decaying meson is not determined, we obtain yCP = [1.12 +/- 0.26 (stat) +/- 0.22 (sys)]%, which excludes the no-mixing hypothesis at 3.3 sigma, including both statistical and systematic uncertainties. This result is in good agreement with a previous Babar measurement of yCP obtained from a sample of D*+->D0pi+ events, where the D0 decays to K-pi+, K+K-, and pi+pi-, which is disjoint with the untagged D0 events used here. Combining the two results taking into account statistical and systematic uncertainties, where the systematic uncertainties are assumed to be 100% correlated, we find yCP = [1.16 +/- 0.22 (stat) +/- 0.18 (sys)]%, which excludes the no-mixing hypothesis at 4.1 sigma., Comment: 8 pages, 4 postscript figures, submitted to PRD-RC

Abstract: We perform a time-dependent amplitude analysis of $B^0 \to K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$ decays to extract the CP violation parameters of $f_0(980) K^0_S$ and $\rho^0(770) K^0_S$ and the direct CP asymmetry of $K^{*+}(892) \pi^-$. The results are obtained from a data sample of $(383 \pm 3) \times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ decays, collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$ factory at SLAC. We find two solutions, with an equivalent goodness-of-fit. Including systematic and Dalitz plot model uncertainties, the combined confidence interval for values of the CP parameter $\beta_{eff}$ in $B^0$ decays to $f_0(980) K^0_S$ is $18^o < \beta_{eff} < 76^o$ at 95% confidence level (C.L). CP conservation in $B^0$ decays to $f_0(980) K^0_S$ is excluded at $3.5\sigma$ including systematic uncertainties. For $B^0$ decays to $\rho^0(770) K^0_S$, the combined confidence interval is $-9^o < \beta_{eff} < 57^o$ at 95% C.L. In decays to $K^{*+}(892) \pi^-$ we measure the direct CP asymmetry to be $A_{CP}=-0.20 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.01 \pm 0.02$. The measured phase difference (including $B^0\bar{B}^0$ mixing) between decay amplitudes of $B^0 \to K^{*+}(892) \pi^-$ and $\bar{B}^0 \to K^{*-}(892) \pi^+$, excludes the interval $-137^o < \Delta\Phi(K^{*+}(892) \pi^-) < -5^o$ at 95% C.L., Comment: 30 pages, 42 postscript figures, submitted to Phys.

Abstract: We report e+e- --> b anti-b cross section measurements by the BABAR experiment performed during an energy scan in the range of 10.54 to 11.20 GeV at the PEP-II e+e- collider. A total relative error of about 5% is reached in more than three hundred center-of-mass energy steps, separated by about 5 MeV. These measurements can be used to derive precise information on the parameters of the Y(10860) and Y(11020) resonances. In particular we show that their widths may be smaller than previously measured., Comment: 7 pages, 2 postscript figures

Abstract: We observe the decays $ $D^*_{s1}(2710)^+ \to D^*K$ and $D^*_{sJ}(2860)^+ \to D^*K$ and measure their branching fractions relative to the $D K$ final state. We also observe, in the $D^*K$ mass spectrum, a new broad structure at a mass of $(3044 \pm 8_{stat} (^{+30}_{-5})_{syst})$ $MeV/c^2$ having a width $\Gamma=(239 \pm 35_{stat} (^{+46}_{-42})_{syst})$ $MeV$. To obtain this result we use 470 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of data recorded by the BaBar detector at the PEPII asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ storage rings at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center running at center-of-mass energies near 10.6 GeV., Comment: 15 pages, 9 postscript figures, submitted to Phys.

Abstract: We study the decay $B^-\to DK^{*-}$ using a sample of 379$\times 10^6$ $\Upsilon(4S)\to B\bar{B}$ events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II $B$-factory. We perform a "GLW" analysis where the $D$ meson decays into either a CP-even ($CP+$) eigenstate ($K^+K^-$, $\pi^+\pi^-$), CP-odd ($CP-$) eigenstate ($K^0_S\pi^0$, $K^0_S\phi$, $K^0_S\omega$) or a non-CP state ($K^-\pi^+$). We also analyze $D$ meson decays into $K^+\pi^-$ from a Cabibbo-favored $\bar{D}^0$ decay or doubly suppressed $D^0$ decay ("ADS" analysis). We measure observables that are sensitive to the CKM angle $\gamma$: the partial-rate charge asymmetries ${\cal A}_{CP\pm}$, the ratios ${\cal R}_{CP\pm}$ of the B-decay branching fractions in $CP\pm$ and non-CP decay, the ratio ${\cal R}_{ADS}$ of the charge-averaged branching fractions, and the charge asymmetry ${\cal A}_{ADS}$ of the ADS decays: ${\cal A}_{CP+}= 0.09\pm0.13 \pm 0.06$, ${\cal A}_{CP-}=-0.23\pm 0.21\pm 0.07$, ${\cal R}_{CP+} =2.17 \pm 0.35 \pm 0.09$,${\cal R}_{CP-} =1.03\pm 0.27\pm 0.13$, ${\cal R}_{ADS}=0.066\pm0.031\pm0.010$, and ${\cal A}_{ADS}=-0.34\pm0.43\pm 0.16$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Combining all the measurements and using a frequentist approach yields the magnitude of the ratio between the Cabibbo-suppressed and favored amplitudes, $r_B$ = 0.31 with a one (two) sigma confidence level interval of [0.24, 0.38] ([0.17, 0.43]). The value $r_B=0$ is excluded at the 3.3 sigma level. A similar analysis excludes values of $\gamma$ in the intervals $[0, 7]^{\circ}, [55, 111]^{\circ}$, and $[175, 180]^{\circ}$ ([85, 99]$^{\circ}$) at the one (two) sigma confidence level., Comment: 15 pages, 13 figures (.eps), to be submitted to PRD

Abstract: 7 pages, 1 postscript figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett; We present measurements of the semileptonic decays B- --> D0 tau- nubar, B- --> D*0 tau- nubar, B0bar --> D+ tau- nubar, and B0bar --> D*+ tau- nubar, which are potentially sensitive to non--Standard Model amplitudes. The data sample comprises 232x10^6 Upsilon(4S) --> BBbar decays collected with the BaBar detector. From a combined fit to B- and B0bar channels, we obtain the branching fractions B(B --> D tau- nubar) = (0.86 +/- 0.24 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.06)% and B(B --> D* tau- nubar) = (1.62 +/- 0.31 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.05)% (normalized for the B0bar), where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and normalization-mode-related.

Abstract: 7 pages, 5 postscript figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett. Now contains references to recent results; We report the observation of the b -> d penguin-dominated decay B0 -> K*0 K*0bar with a sample of 383.2 +/- 4.2 million BBbar pairs collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The measured branching fraction is Br(B0 -> K*0 K*0bar) = [0.49^{+0.16}_{-0.13} +/- 0.05] x 10^{-6} and the fraction of longitudinal polarization f_L (B0 -> K*0 K*0bar) = 0.81^{+0.10}_{-0.12} +/- 0.06. The first error quoted is statistical and the second systematic. We also obtain an upper limit at the 90% confidence level on the branching fraction for Br(B0 ->K*0 K*0) < 0.18 x 10^{-6}.

Abstract: 27 pages, 59 Postscript Figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. D; This paper reports measurements of processes: e+e- -> gamma KsK+pi-, e+e- -> gamma K+K-pi0, e+e- -> gamma phi eta, and e+e- -> gamma phi pi0. The initial state radiated photon allows to cover the hadronic final state in the energy range from thresholds up to ~4.6 GeV. The overall size of the data sample analyzed is 232 fb-1, collected by the BaBar detector running at the PEP-II e+e- storage ring. From the Dalitz plot analysis of the KsK+pi- final state, moduli and relative phase of the isoscalar and the isovector components of the e+e- -> K K*(892) cross section are determined. Parameters of phi and rho recurrences are also measured, using a global fitting procedure which exploits the interconnection among amplitudes, moduli and phases of the e+e- -> KsK+pi-, K+K-pi0, phi eta final states. The cross section for the OZI-forbidden process e+e- -> phi pi0, and the J/psi branching fractions to KK*(892) and K+K-eta are also measured.

Abstract: 7 pages, 2 postscript figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. D (Rapid Communications); We present measurements of the decays B+ -> X(3872) K+ and B0 -> X(3872) K0 with X(3872) -> Jpsi pi+ pi-. The data sample used, collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- asymmetric-energy storage ring, corresponds to 455 x 10^6 BBbar pairs. Branching fraction measurements of BF(B+ -> X(3872) K+) x BF(X(3872) -> Jpsi pi+ pi-) = (8.4 +/- 1.5 +/- 0.7) x 10^{-6} and BF(B0 -> X(3872) K0) x BF(X(3872) -> Jpsi pi+ pi- = (3.5 +/- 1.9 +/- 0.4) x 10^{-6} are obtained. We set an upper limit on the natural width of the X(3872) of Gamma < 3.3 MeV/c^2 at the 90% confidence level.

Abstract: We present the results of searches for decays of B mesons to final states with a b_1 meson and a neutral pion or kaon. The data, collected with the BABAR detector at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, represent 465 million BBbar pairs produced in e+e- annihilation. The results for the branching fractions are, in units of 1e-6, BR(B+ to b_1+K0) = 9.6+/-1.7+/-0.9, BR(B0 to b_10K0) = 5.1+/-1.8+/-0.5 (, Comment: 7 pages, 2 postscript figures, submitted to PRD RC

Abstract: We report the first observation of $e^+e^- \to \rho^+\rho^-$, in a data sample of 379 $fb^{-1}$ collected with the BABAR detector at the {PEP-II} $e^+e^-$ storage ring at center-of-mass energies near $\sqrt{s} = 10.58 GeV. We measure a cross section of $\sigma({e^+e^-\} \to \rho^+ \rho^-) = {19.5 \pm 1.6(stat) \pm 3.2(syst) fb}$. Assuming production through single-photon annihilation, there are three independent helicity amplitudes. We measure the ratios of their squared moduli to be $|{F}_{00}|^2 : |{F}_{10}|^2 : |{F}_{11}|^2 = 0.51 \pm 0.14(stat) \pm 0.07(syst) : 0.10 \pm 0.04(stat) \pm 0.01(syst) : 0.04 \pm 0.03(stat) \pm 0.01(syst)$. The $|{F}_{00}|^2$ result is inconsistent with the prediction of 1.0 made by QCD models with a significance of 3.1 standard deviations including systematic uncertainties., Comment: 8 pages, 4 postscript figures, submitted to PRD-RC

Abstract: We report a measurement of the branching fractions for Bbar -> D(*)(pi)l-nubar decays based on 341.1 fb-1 of data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the babar detector at the PEP-II e+e- storage rings. Events are tagged by fully reconstructing one of the B mesons in a hadronic decay mode. We obtain B(B- -> D0l-nubar) = (2.33 +/- 0.09(stat.) +/- 0.09(syst.))%, B(B- -> D*0l-nubar) = (5.83 +/- 0.15(stat.) +/- 0.30(syst.))%, B(B0bar -> D+l-nubar) = (2.21 +/- 0.11(stat.) +/- 0.12(syst.))%, B(B0bar -> D*+l-nubar) = (5.49 +/- 0.16(stat.) +/- 0.25(syst.))%, B(B- -> D+pi-l-nubar) = (0.42 +/- 0.06(stat.) +/- 0.03(syst.))%, B(B- -> D*+pi-l-nubar) = (0.59 +/- 0.05(stat.) +/- 0.04(syst.))%, B(B0bar -> D0pi+l-nubar) = (0.43 +/- 0.08(stat.) +/- 0.03(syst.))%, and B(B0bar -> D*0pi+l-nubar) = (0.48 +/- 0.08(stat.) +/- 0.04(syst.))%., Comment: 8 pages, 2 postscript figures, submitted to Phys.

Abstract: We present searches for the leptonic decays B+ -> l+ nu and the lepton flavor violating decays B0 -> l+ tau-, where l=e,mu, with data collected by the BaBar experiment at SLAC. This search demonstrates a novel technique in which we fully reconstruct the accompanying Bbar in Upsilon(4S)->BBbar events, and look for a monoenergetic lepton from the signal B decay. The signal yield is extracted from a fit to the signal lepton candidate momentum distribution in the signal B rest frame. Using a data sample of approximately 378 million BBbar pairs (342fb-1), we find no evidence of signal in any of the decay modes.

Abstract: 14 pages, 4 postscript figures, 2 tables, submitted to Physical Review D; We report a Dalitz-plot analysis of the charmless hadronic decays of charged B mesons to the final state K+/- pi+/- pi-/+. Using a sample of 383.2 +/- 4.2 million BBbar pairs collected by the BaBar detector, we measure CP-averaged branching fractions and direct CP asymmetries for intermediate resonant and nonresonant contributions. We find evidence for direct CP violation in the decay B+ -> rho0(770) K+, with a CP violation parameter A_CP = (+44 +/- 10 +/- 4 +5,-13)%.

Abstract: version 1: 8 pages, 1 postscript figure, submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett.; version 2: still some wording changes before submission to Phys. Rev.Lett; Using 226 million $B\bar{B}$ events recorded on the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the BABAR detector at the SLAC $e^+e^-$ PEPII storage rings, we reconstruct $B^- \to D^{*0} e^-\bar{\nu}_e$ decays using the decay chain $D^{*0} \to D^0\pi^0$ and $D^0 \to K^-\pi^+$. From the $w$ dependence of their differential rate, and using the form factor description by Caprini et al., we obtain the results $\rho_{A_1}^2 = 1.16\pm 0.06 \pm 0.08$, $F(1)\cdot|V_{cb}| =(35.9\pm 0.6 \pm 1.4)\cdot 10^{-3}$, and ${\cal{B}}(B^- \to D^{*0}e^-\bar{\nu}_e) = (5.56\pm 0.08\pm 0.41)%$.

Abstract: 7 pages, 4 postscript figures, submitted to PRL; We present partial branching fractions for inclusive charmless semileptonic B decays Bbar --> X_u ell nubar, and the determination of the CKM matrix element |V_{ub}|. The analysis is based on a sample of 383 million Y(4S) decays into B Bbar pairs collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II e+ e- storage rings. We select events using either the invariant mass M_X of the hadronic system, the invariant mass squared, q^2, of the lepton and neutrino pair, the kinematic variable P_+ or one of their combinations. We then determine partial branching fractions in limited regions of phase space: Delta B = (1.18 +- 0.09_{stat.} +- 0.07_{sys.} +- 0.01_{theo.}) x 10^{-3} (M_X < 1.55 GeV/c^2), Delta B = (0.95 +- 0.10_{stat.} +- 0.08_{sys.} +- 0.01_{theo.}) x 10^{-3} (P_+ < 0.66 GeV/c), and Delta B = (0.76 +- 0.08_{stat.} +- 0.07_{sys.} +- 0.02_{theo.}) x 10^{-3} (M_X < 1.7 GeV/c^2, q^2 > 8 GeV^2/c^4). Corresponding values of |V_{ub}| are extracted using several theoretical calculations.

Abstract: 8 pages, 5 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. D (Rapid Communications); We present for the first time a measurement of the weak phase 2b+g obtained from a time-dependent Dalitz plot analysis of B^0 -> D-(+) K0 Pi+(-) decays. Using a sample of approximately 347*10^{6} BBbar pairs collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy storage rings, we obtain 2b+g = (83 +/- 53 +/- 20) degrees and (263 +/- 53 +/- 20) degrees assuming the ratio r of the b -> u and b -> c decay amplitudes to be 0.3. The magnitudes and phases for the resonances associated with the b -> c transitions are also extracted from the fit.

Abstract: We present a study of resonances in exclusive decays of $B$ mesons to $\bar{D}^{(*)} D^{(*)} K$. We report the observation of the decays $B \to \Dbar^{(*)} D^+_{s1}(2536)$ where the $D^+_{s1}(2536)$ is reconstructed in the $D^{*0}K^+$ and $D^{*+} K^0_S$ decay channels. We report also the observation of the decays $B \to \psi(3770) K$ where the $\psi(3770)$ decays to $\Dbar^0 D^0$ and $D^- D^+$. In addition, we present the observation of an enhancement for the $\Dbar^{*0} D^0$ invariant mass in the decays $B \to \Dbar^{*0} D^0 K$, at a mass of $(3875.1 {}^{+0.7}_{-0.5} \pm 0.5)$ MeV/$c^2$ with a width of $(3.0 {}^{+1.9}_{-1.4} \pm 0.9)$ MeV (the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic). Branching fractions and spin studies are shown for the three resonances. The results are based on 347 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II $B$ factory., Comment: 8 pages, 2 figures; submitted to Phys. Rev. D (Rapid Communications); v2 corrects treatment of errors on X(3872) mass and width

Abstract: We present branching fraction measurements of the decays B^{+} -> a1(1260)^{+} K^{0} and B^{0} to a1(1260)^{-} K^{+} with a1(1260)^{+} -> pi^{-} pi^{+} pi^{+}. The data sample corresponds to 383 million B B-bar pairs produced in e^{+}e^{-} annihilation through the Y(4S) resonance. We measure the products of the branching fractions: B(B^{+}-> a1(1260)^{+} K^{0})B(a1(1260)^{+} -> pi^{-} pi^{+} pi^{+}) = (17.4 +/- 2.5 +/- 2.2) 10^{-6} B(B^{0}-> a1(1260)^{-} K^{+})B(a1(1260)^{-} -> pi^{+} pi^{-} pi^{-}) = (8.2 +/- 1.5 +/- 1.2) 10^{-6}. We also measure the charge asymmetries A_{ch}(B^{+} -> a1(1260)^{+} K^{0})= 0.12 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.02 and A_{ch}(B^{0} -> a1(1260)^{-} K^{+})= -0.16 +/- 0.12 +/- 0.01. The first uncertainty quoted is statistical and the second is systematic., 7 pages, 2 postscript figures. Submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett

Abstract: We report results of a search for CPT and Lorentz violation in B0-B0bar oscillations using inclusive dilepton events from 232 million Y(4S) --> BBbar decays recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B Factory at SLAC. We find 2.8sigma significance, compatible with no signal, for variations in the complex CPT violation parameter z at the Earth's sidereal frequency and extract values for the quantities \Delta(a_\mu) in the general Lorentz-violating standard-model extension. The spectral powers for variations in z over the frequency range 0.26/year to 2.1/day are also compatible with no signal., Comment: 7 pages, 3 postscript figures, submitted to Physical Review Letters
