Abstract

We present measurements of the branching fractions of the decays B+-->eta(')K(+) and B-0-->eta(')K(0). For B-0-->eta(')K(S)(0) we also measure the time-dependent CP-violation parameters (SetaKS0)-K-' and (CetaKS0)-K-', and for B+-->eta(')K(+) the time-integrated charge asymmetry A(ch). The data sample corresponds to 88.9x10(6) B (B) over bar pairs produced by e(+)e(-) annihilation at the Y(4S). The results are B(B+-->eta(')K(+))=(76.9+/-3.5+/-4.4)x10(-6), <tcal>B</tcal>(B-0-->eta(')K(0))=(60.6+/-5.6+/-4.6)x10(-6), (SetaKS0)-K-'=0.02+/-0.34+/-0.03, (CetaKS0)-K-'=0.10+/-0.22+/-0.04, and A(ch)=0.037+/-0.045+/-0.011.
