We study the two-body decays of B^\pm mesons to K^\pm and a charmonium state, X_{c\bar c}, in a sample of 210.5 fb^{-1} of data from the BaBar experiment. We perform measurements of absolute branching fractions BR(B^\pm --> K^\pm X_{c\bar c}) using a missing mass technique, and report several new or improved results. In particular, the upper limit BR(B^\pm --> K^\pm X(3872))<3.2 10^-4 at 90% CL and the inferred lower limit BR(X(3872) --> J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-)>4.2% will help in understanding the nature of the recently discovered X(3872).

Branching Fractions of the $X(3872)$
If the X(3872) is a weakly bound charm-meson molecule, its J/psi pi+ pi- branching fraction lies between roughly 4% and 33%, and is likely several times larger than the measured resonance-feature fraction.
