Abstract: (arXiv)
We report a search for the rare decays B+D+K0B^+ \to D^+ K^0 and B+D+K0B^+ \to D^+ K^{*0} in an event sample of approximately 465 million BBˉB\bar B pairs collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+ee^+e^- collider at SLAC. We find no significant evidence for either mode and we set 90\% probability upper limits on the branching fractions of B(B+D+K0)<2.9×106B(B^+ \to D^+ K^0) < 2.9\times 10^{-6} and B(B+D+K0)<3.0×106B(B^+ \to D^+ K^{*0}) < 3.0\times 10^{-6}.
