Abstract

We present evidence for the b→d penguin-dominated decays B+→K̅ 0K+ and B0→K0K̅ 0 in 227×10^6 Υ(4S)→BB̅ decays collected with the BABAR detector. We measure the branching fractions B(B+→K̅ 0K+)=(1.5±0.5±0.1)×10-6(<2.4×10-6) and B(B0→K0K̅ 0)=(1.19-0.35+0.40±0.13)×10-6, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. We also present improved measurements of the charge-averaged branching fraction B(B+→K0π+)=(26.0±1.3±1.0)×10-6 and CP-violating charge asymmetry ACP(K0π+)=-0.09±0.05±0.01, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.
