    Electromagnetic radiative penguin decays of the B meson were studied with the BaBar detector at SLAC's PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory. Branching fractions and isospin asymmetry of the decay B -> K* gamma, branching fractions of B -> K2*(1430) gamma, and a search for B0 -> phi gamma are presented. The decay rates may be enhanced by contributions from non-standard model processes.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, presented at the 2004 Meeting of the Division of Particles and Fields of the American Physical Society, Riverside, CA, USA, August 26-31, 2004, submitted to International Journal of Modern Physics
