Study of B[superscript ±]→J/ψπ[superscript ±] and B[superscript ±]→J/ψK[superscript ±] Decays: Measurement of the Ratio of Branching Fractions and Search for Direct CP Violation

We study B[superscript ±]→J/ψπ[superscript ±] and B[superscript ±]→J/ψK[superscript ±] decays in a sample of about 89×10[superscript 6] BB̅ pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B factory at SLAC. We observe a signal of 244±20 B[superscript ±]→J/ψπ[superscript ±] events an...
