|q/p| Measurement from B0->D*l nu Partial Reconstruction

We present a new measurement of CP violation induced by B0 B0bar oscillations, based on the full data set collected by the BaBar experiment at the PEPII collider. We use a sample of about 6 million B0->D* l nu decays selected with partial reconstruction of the D* meson. The charged lepton identifies the flavor of the first B meson at its decay time, the flavor of the other B is determined by kaon tagging. We determine the parameter dCP = 1 - |q/p| = (0.29+-0.84+1.78/-1.61) 10^-3.

Heavy-flavour production in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC, measured with the ALICE detector

We present the first results from the ALICE experiment on the nuclear modification factors for heavy-flavour hadron production in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt{s_NN}=2.76 TeV. Using proton-proton and lead-lead collision samples at sqrt{s}=7 TeV and sqrt{s_NN}=2.76 TeV, respectively, nuclear modification factors R_AA(pt) were measured for D mesons at central rapidity (via displaced decay vertex reconstruction), and for electrons and muons, at central and forward rapidity, respectively.
