Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors present a preliminary measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetries in decays of neutral B mesons to the final states D*{sup {-+}}[pi]{sup ±}, using approximately 82 million B{bar B} events collected by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II storage ring. Events containing these decays are selected with a partial reconstruction technique, in which only the high momentum [pi]{sup ±} and the low momentum pion from the D*{sup {-+}} decay are reconstructed. The flavor of the other B meson in the event is tagged using the information from kaon and lepton candidates. They measure the time-dependent CP asymmetry [Alpha] = -0.063 {+-} 0.024 (stat.) {+-} 0.017 (syst.). They interpret these results in terms of the angles of the unitarity triangle to set a bound on
