We present a study of Bs0 decays to the CP-odd final state J/[psi] f0(980) with J/[psi] 2!æ+æ- and f0(980) 2![pi]+[pi]-. Using pp̄ collision data with an integrated luminosity of 3.8 fb-1 collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron we measure a Bs0 lifetime of [tau](B0s 2!J/[psi] f0(980)) = 1.70-0.11+0.12(stat) " 0.03(syst) ps. This is the first measurement of the Bs0} lifetime in a decay to a CP eigenstate and corresponds in the standard model to the lifetime of the heavy Bs0 eigenstate. We also measure the product of branching fractions of B0s 2!J/[psi] f0(980) and f0(980) 2![pi]+[pi]- relative to the product of branching fractions of B0s 2!J/[psi][phi] and [phi]2!+K- to be Rf0/[psi] = 0.257 " 0.020(stat) " 0.014(syst), which is the most precise determination of this quantity to date.

We study the decays B[sup +] [yields] [eta][sub c]K[sup +] and B[sup 0] [yields] [eta][sub c]K[sup 0], where the [eta][sub c] is reconstructed in the K[sub S][sup 0] K[sup [+-]] [pi][sup [-+]] and K[sup +]K[sup -] [pi][sup 0] decay modes. Results are based on a sample of 86 million B[bar B] pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC e[sup +]e[sup -] B Factory. We measure the branching fractions [Beta](B[sup +] [yields] [eta][sub c]K[sup +]) = (1.34 [+-] 0.09 [+-] 0.13 [+-] 0.41) x 10[sup -3] and [Beta](B[sup 0] [yields] [eta][sub c]K[sup 0]) = (1.18 [+-] 0.16 [+-] 0.13 [+-] 0.37) x 10[sup -3], where the first error is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third reflects the [eta][sub c] branching fraction uncertainty. In addition, we search for B [yields] [eta][sub c]K events with [eta][sub c] [yields] 2(K[sup +]K[sup -]) and [eta][sub c] [yields] [phi][phi] and determine the [eta][sub c] decay branching fraction ratios [Beta]([eta][sub c] [yields] 2(K[sup +]K[sup -]))/[Beta]([eta][sub c] [yields] K[bar K][pi]) = (2.3 [+-] 0.7 [+-] 0.6) x 10[sup -2] and [Beta]([eta][sub c] [yields] [phi][phi])/[Beta]([eta][sub c] [yields] K[bar K][pi]) = (5.5 [+-] 1.4 [+-] 0.5) x 10[sup -2].

We present a measurement of the branching fraction of neutral B meson decaying to final states containing a K1 meson, i.e. K1(1270) and K1(1400), and a charged pion. The data, collected with the BABAR detector at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, represent 454 million B{bar B} pairs produced in ee− annihilation. We measure the branching fraction?(B° → K1+?−) = (31.0 ± 2.7 ± 6.9) x 10−6, where the first error quoted is statistical and the second is systematic. In the framework of the K-matrix formalism used to describe these decays, we also set limits on the ratio of the production constants for the K1(1270)+ and K1(1400)+ mesons in B° decays.
