Abstract

A new method to extract the weak phase γ\gamma is suggested by exploiting B ---> D K^{(*)} decay modes that are not Cabibbo suppressed, using the isospin relations, and ignoring the annihilation diagram as usual. Assuming 3×108BBˉ3 \times 10^8 B\bar{B} pair at BB factories, one can determine γ\gamma with 3σ3-\sigma accuracy for 80^o < γ\gamma < 150^o using B ---> D K modes and for 50^o < γ\gamma < 170^o using B ---> D K^* modes.
