We have observed the decays B--> phiK and phiK(*) in a sample of over 45 million B mesons collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider. The measured branching fractions are B(B+--> phiK+) = (7.7(+1.

Search for the decay upsilon(1S) --> gammaeta(').

We report on a search for the radiative decay Upsilon(1S)-->gammaeta(') in 61.3 pb(-1) of data taken with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. Three decay chains were investigated, all involving eta(')-->pi(+)pi(-)eta, followed by eta-->gammagamma, eta-->pi(0)pi(0)pi(0), or eta-->pi(+)pi(-)pi(0).

Observation of CP violation in the B(0) meson system.

We present an updated measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. This result uses an additional sample of Upsilon(4S) decays collected in 2001, bringing the data available to 32 x 10(6) BB macro pairs. We select events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a final state containing charmonium and the flavor of the other neutral B meson is determined from its decay products.

Rate measurement of D(0)-->K+pi(-)pi(0) and constraints on D(0) -- D(0) mixing.

We present an observation and time-integrated rate measurement of the decay D(0)-->K(+)pi(-)pi(0) produced in 9 fb(-1) of e(+)e(-) collisions near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. The signal is inconsistent with an upward fluctuation of the background by 4.9 standard deviations.

Experimental investigation of the two-photon widths of the chi(c0) and the chi(c2) mesons.

Using 12.7 fb(-1) of data collected with the CLEO detector at CESR, we observed two-photon production of the cc states chi(c0) and chi(c2) in their decay to pi(+)pi(-)pi(+)pi(-). We measured gamma(gammagamma)(chi(c))xB(chi(c)-->pi(+)pi(-)pi(+)pi(-)) to be 75+/-13(stat)+/-8(syst) eV for the chi(c0) and 6.

Bounds on the CP asymmetry in b --> sgamma decays.

We have measured the CP asymmetry A(CP) identical with[gamma(b-->sgamma)-gammab-->sgamma)]/[gamma(b-->sgamma)+gamma(b-->sgamma)] to be A(CP) = (-0.079+/-0.108+/-0.

Bounds on the CP asymmetry in like-sign dileptons from B(0)B*(0) meson decays.

We have measured the charge asymmetry in like-sign dilepton yields from B(0)B*(0) meson decays using the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. We find a(0)(ll) identical with[N(l(+)l(+))-N(l(-)l(-))]/[N(l(+)l(+))+N(l(-)l(-))] = +0.013+/-0.

Observation of new states decaying into Lambda+(c)pi(-)pi(+).

Using 13.7 fb(-1) of data recorded by the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we investigate the spectrum of charmed baryons which decay into Lambda+(c)pi(-)pi(+) and are more massive than the Lambda+(c)(2625) baryon. We find evidence for two new states: one is broad and has an invariant mass roughly 480 MeV above that of the Lambda+(c) baryon; the other is narrow with an invariant mass of 596+/-1+/-2 MeV above the Lambda+(c) mass.

Study of tau decays to six pions and a neutrino.

The tau decays to six-pion final states have been studied with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. The measured branching fractions are B(tau(-)-->2pi(-)pi(+)3pi(0)nu(tau)) = (2.2+/-0.

Inhibiting expression of a tomato ripening-associated membrane protein increases organic acids and reduces sugar levels of fruit.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) ripening-associated membrane protein (TRAMP) is a channel protein of the membrane intrinsic protein (MIP) class encoded by the cDNA clone pNY507 [R.G.

Observation of the Omega(0)(c) Charmed Baryon at CLEO.

The CLEO experiment at the CESR collider has used 13.7 fb(-1) of data to search for the production of the Omega(0)(c) (css ground state) in e(+)e(-) collisions at square root of (s) approximately 10.6 GeV.

Observation of B --> phiK and B --> phiK*.

We have studied two-body charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into the final states straight phiK and phiK(*). Using 9.7 million B&Bmacr; pairs collected with the CLEO II detector, we observe the decays B- --> phiK- and B0--> phiK(*0) with the following branching fractions: B(B--->phiK-) = (5.

Evidence of New States Decaying into Xi(*)(c)pi.

Using 13.7 fb(-1) of data recorded by the CLEO detector at Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we report evidence of two new charmed baryons: one decaying into Xi(0')(c)pi(+) with the subsequent decay Xi(0')(c)-->Xi(0)(c)gamma, and its isospin partner decaying into Xi(+')(c)pi(-) followed by Xi(+')(c)-->Xi(+)(c)gamma. We measure the following mass differences for the two states: M(Xi(0)(c)gammapi(+))-M(Xi(0)(c)) = 318.

First observation of the decays B(0) --> D(*-)p_p pi+ and B(0) --> D(*-)p_n.

We report the first observation of exclusive decays of the type B-->D(*)N_NX, where N is a nucleon. Using a sample of 9.7x10(6)B_B pairs collected with the CLEO detector operating at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we measure the branching fractions B(B0-->D(*-)p_p pi(+)) = (6.

Measurement of CP-violating asymmetries in B0 decays to CP eigenstates.

We present measurements of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates. The measurement uses a data sample of 23x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-->BbarB decays collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. In this sample, we find events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a CP eigenstate containing charmonium and the flavor of the other neutral B meson is determined from its decay products.

The Lambda+c lifetime is measured using 9.0 fb(-1) of e+e- annihilation data collected on or just below the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the CLEO II.V detector at CESR.

First observation of the sigma(*+)(c) baryon and a new measurement of the sigma(*+)(c) mass.

Using data recorded with the CLEO II and CLEO II.V detector configurations at the Cornell Electron Storage Rings, we report the first observation and mass measurement of the Sigma(*+)(c) charmed baryon, and an updated measurement of the mass of the Sigma(+)(c) baryon. We find M(Sigma(*+)(c))-M(Lambda(+)(c)) = (231.

Oxidation of aldehydes catalyzed by pig liver flavin-containing monooxygenase.

Flavin-containing monooxygenase-1 (FMO1) purified to homogeneity from pig liver microsomes catalyzes NADPH- and oxygen-dependent oxidation of salicylaldehyde to pyrocatechol and formate. These products, formed in equimolar amounts, were the only ones detected that suggests that FMO1 catalyzes the oxidation of salicylaldehyde by Baeyer-Villiger chemistry. In addition to salicylaldehyde, 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde, 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde, 5-nitrosalicylaldehyde, ferrocene carboxaldehyde, 2-pyridine carboxaldehyde, and acetylacetone also stimulated NADPH-dependent oxygen uptake in the presence of FMO1.

Liver microsome and flavin-containing monooxygenase catalyzed oxidation of organic selenium compounds.

Eight commercially available selenides, a selenol, and selenourea were examined for substrate activity with purified pig liver flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO). While none of the aromatic heterocyclic selenides tested showed detectable activity, all dialkyl- and alkylaryl-selenides free from ionic groups stimulated NADPH- and FMO-dependent oxygen uptake. With limiting substrate the molar ratio of oxygen reduced to selenide added was 1:1.
