Abstract

We propose a method for determining γ\gamma using B±DK±B^\pm\to D K^\pm decays followed by a multibody DD decay, such as DKSππ+D \to K_S \pi^-\pi^+, DKSKK+D \to K_S K^-K^+ and DKSππ+π0D \to K_S \pi^-\pi^+\pi^0. The main advantages of the method is that it uses only Cabibbo allowed DD decays, and that large strong phases are expected due to the presence of resonances. Since no knowledge about the resonance structure is needed, γ\gamma can be extracted without any hadronic uncertainty.
