We report the observation of the baryonic B decay B0bar --> Lambda_c^+ anti-Lambda K- with a significance larger than 7 standard deviations based on 471x10^6$ BBbar pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage ring at SLAC. We measure the branching fraction for the decay B0bar --> Lambda_c^+ anti-Lambda K- to be (3.8 pm 0.8_{stat} pm 0.2_{sys} pm 1.0_{Lambda_c^+})x10^{-5}. The uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and due to the uncertainty in the Lambda_c^+ branching fraction. We find that the Lambda_c^+ K^- invariant mass distribution shows an enhancement above 3.5 GeV/c^2.

We report the study of OK and SK using a $772 times 10^6$ $Bbar{B}$ pair data sample recorded on the $Upsilon({rm 4S})$ resonance with the Belle detector at KEKB. The following branching fractions are measured: $mathcal{B}$(OKPHSP) $=$ $(4.22^{+0.45}_{-0.44}pm 0.51)times10^{-6}$, $mathcal{B}$(SKPHSP) $=$ $(3.81^{+0.39}_{-0.37} pm 0.45)times 10^{-6}$, $mathcal{B}$(ETACD+c.c.) $=$ $(2.91^{+0.37}_{-0.35}pm 0.36)times 10^{-3}$ and $mathcal{B}$(PLPHI) $=$ $(8.18 pm 2.15 pm 0.79)times10^{-7}$, where c.c. denotes the corresponding charge-conjugation process. The intermediate resonance decays are excluded in the four-body decay measurements. We also found evidences for $mathcal{B}$(ETACS+c.c.) $=$ $(3.59 pm 1.52 pm 0.47) times 10^{-3}$ and $mathcal{B}$(LLKO) $=$ $(2.30 pm 0.65 pm 0.25) times 10^{-6}$. No significant signals are found for JPSIS+c.c. and LLKS ; we set the 90% confidence level upper limits on their decay branching fractions as $< 1.85times10^{-3}$ and $< 2.14times10^{-6}$, respectively.
We report on a search for B0bar --> D0 K(*)0bar decays based on 85 10^6 BBar events collected with the Belle detector at KEKB. The B0bar --> D0 K0bar and B0bar --> D0 K*0bar decays have been observed for the first time with the branching fractions Br(B0bar --> D0 K0bar) = (5.0^{+1.3}_{-1.2}+- 0.6) 10^{-5} and Br(B0bar --> D0 K*0bar) = (4.8^{+1.1}_{-1.0}+- 0.5) 10^{-5}. No significant signal has been found for the B0bar --> D*0 K(*)0bar and B0bar --> D(*)0bar K*0bar decay modes, and upper limits at 90% CL are presented.
First observations of the Cabibbo suppressed decays B0bar -->D+ K- pi+ pi- and B- --> D0 K- pi+ pi- are reported using 35 pb^{-1} of data collected with the LHCb detector. Their branching fractions are measured with respect to the corresponding Cabibbo favored decays, from which we obtain B(B0bar --> D+ K- pi+ pi-)/B(B0bar --> D+ pi- pi+ pi-)=(5.9pm1.1pm0.5) x 10^{-2} and B(B- --> D0 K- pi+ pi-)/B(B- --> D0 pi- pi+ pi-)=(9.4pm1.3pm0.9) x 10^{-2}, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The B- --> D0 K- pi+ pi- decay is particularly interesting, as it can be used in a similar way to B- --> D0 K- to measure the CKM phase gamma.
A search for the $B^{0}to K^{+}K^{-}$ decay is performed using $pp$-collision data collected by LHCb. The data set corresponds to integrated luminosities of 1 and 2 fb$^{-1}$ at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, respectively. This decay is observed for the first time, with a significance of more than five standard deviations. The analysis also results in an improved measurement of the branching fraction for the $B_s^0to pi^+pi^-$ decay. The measured branching fractions are $BR(B^0to K^+K^-) = (7.80 pm 1.27 pm 0.81 pm 0.21) times 10^{-8}$ and $BR(B_s^0topi^+pi^-) = (6.91 pm 0.54 pm 0.63 pm 0.19 pm 0.40) times 10^{-7}$. The first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, the third is due to the uncertainty on the $B^0to K^+pi^-$ branching fraction used as a normalization. For the $B_s^0$ mode, the fourth accounts for the uncertainty on the ratio of the probabilities for $b$ quarks to hadronize into $B_s^0$ and $B^0$ mesons.
The $B^+ to D^{*-}K^+pi^+$ decay potentially provides an excellent way to investigate charm meson spectroscopy. The decay is searched for in a sample of proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3~{rm fb}^{-1}$. A clear signal is observed, and the ratio of its branching fraction to that of the $B^+ to D^{*-}pi^+pi^+$ normalisation channel is measured to be begin{equation*} frac{mathcal{B}(B^+ to D^{*-}K^+pi^+)}{mathcal{B}(B^+ to D^{*-}pi^+pi^+)} = left( 6.39 pm 0.27 pm 0.48 right) times 10^{-2} , , end{equation*} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This is the first observation of the $B^+ to D^{*-}K^+pi^+$ decay.
