Book excerpt: We report recent measurements of the CKM angle [alpha] using data collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy ee− collider at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. In addition to improved constraints on [alpha] from the decays B{sup {+-}} 2![rho]{sup {+-}}[rho]°, we also present preliminary results of neutral and charged B meson decays to K1(1270)[pi] and K1(1400)[pi] and its impact on the estimate for the CKM angle [alpha] based on time-dependent analysis of CP-violating asymmetries in B° 2!a1(1260){sup {+-}} [pi]{sup {-+}}. Moreover we report the first observation of the decay B 2!a1(1260){sup {+-}}a1(1260){sup {-+}}; this mode can be used, in principle, to provide an independent measurement of [alpha].
