STUDY OF HADRONIC AND RARE B DECAYS IN BABAR

We present results from BABAR experiment for the measurement of inclusive and exclusive branching fractions of B mesons into final states containing J/ψ, ψ(2S) and χc. The contributions of CP even and odd amplitudes in the decay B⁰ → J/ψK^*0 are determined from an angular analysis. We report the measurements of the branching ratios B⁰ → D^*+D^*− and , and the study of exclusive two-body and quasi-two-body charmless decays. The branching fraction of the decay B⁰ → K^*0γ has been determined and the corresponding CP asymmetry has been measured.
