The $U$-spin symmetry provides a powerful tool to extract the angle $\gamma$ of the Unitarity Triangle and the $B_s^0$-$\bar{B}_s^0$ mixing phase $\phi_s$ from CP violation in the $B^0_s\to K^-K^+$, $B^0_d\to\pi^-\pi^+$ system. LHCb has…

A binned Dalitz plot analysis of $B^\pm \to D K^\pm$ decays, with $D \to K^0_{\rm S} \pi^+\pi^-$ and $D \to K^0_{\rm S} K^+ K^-$, is performed to measure the CP-violating observables $x_{\pm}$ and $y_{\pm}$ which are sensitive to the CKM…

To help the difficult determination of the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle, Aleksan, Dunietz and Kayser have proposed the modes of the type $K^-D^+_s$, common to $B_s$ and $\bar{B}_s$. We point out that it is possible to gain in…

We report on the initial measurements of the angle gamma and the sum of angles 2 beta + gamma of the Unitarity Triangle. When compared with indirect information on the value of gamma from other measurements of CKM parameters, the…

The normalised decay rate of $B^+ \to J/\psi(\to \mu^+\mu^-) K^+$ is measured as a function of the lepton helicity angle using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.1 \text{fb}^{-1}$ collected during October 2024…

The conventional use of two-body B decays to extract $\gamma$, although theoretically clean, is currently statistics-limited. On the other hand, a bulk of data on three-body B decays is available from $B$ factories. Applying the…

The great progress made recently in the sector of Flavor Physics has enabled to establish CP violation in the B-meson decays. The unitarity triangle derived from the unitarity relation $V_{ub}^* V_{ud} + V_{cb}^* V_{cd} + V_{tb}^* V_{td} =…

Measurement of the CKM phase gamma in B->DK decays can be potentially performed with high precision due to low theoretical uncertainties. However, the precision measurement requires very large experimental samples of B decays. This report…

The angle gamma of the standard CKM unitarity triangle can be determined from B -> D K decays with a very small irreducible theoretical error, which is only due to second-order electroweak corrections. We study these contributions and…

Several years ago, it was pointed out that the U-spin-related decays $B_d\to\pi^+\pi^-$, $B_s\to K^+K^-$ and $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$, $B_s\to \pi^\pm K^\mp$ offer interesting strategies for the extraction of the angle gamma of the unitarity…

The decay mode B -> rho pi is currently studied as a channel allowing, in principle, to measure without ambiguities the angle alpha of the unitarity triangle. It is also investigated by the CLEO Collaboration where a branching ratio larger…

We propose a new method to extract the CP violating weak phase $\gamma$ (the phase of $V_{ub}^*$) in the CKM paradigm of the Standard Model, using $B^- \rightarrow D^0 \pi^- \rightarrow f \pi^-$ and $B^- \rightarrow \bar D^0 \pi^-…

A binned Dalitz plot analysis of the decays $B^0 \to D K^{\ast 0}$, with $D \to K_{S}^{0} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $K_{S}^{0} K^{+} K^{-}$, is performed to measure the observables $x_\pm$ and $y_\pm$, which are related to the CKM angle $\gamma$…

We describe a method for determining gamma using B^+- -> D K^+- decays followed by a multibody D decay. In the talk we focus on K_S pi^- pi^+ final state, but other modes such as D -> K_S K^- K^+ and D -> K_S pi^- pi^+ pi^0 can also be…

Various methods are discussed for obtaining the CKM angle gamma through the interference of the charged B-meson decay channels B- -> K- D0 and B- -> K- D0-bar where the D0 and D0-bar decay to common final states. It is found that choosing…

Several methods exist to measure $CP$ violation observables related to the $C\!K\!M$ angle $\gamma$. These observables are different for every $B$ meson decay channel. However, the information they contain on $\gamma$ is encoded in a…

Asymmetries in the time-dependent rates of $D^0 \to K^+K^-$ and $D^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-$ decays are measured in a $pp$ collision data sample collected with the LHCb detector during LHC Run 1, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of…

We propose a new method to extract the CKM phase angle \gamma (\equiv \phi_3) from the isospin analysis in B \to K \pi decays. Unlike previously proposed methods, we do not employ flavor SU(3) symmetry, so that this method is free from the…

Determination of the mixing-induced $C\!P$-violating phase $\phi_{s}$ and decay width difference $\Delta\Gamma_{s}$ in $\bar{b}\to\bar{c}c\bar{s}$ decays is one of the main goals of the LHCb experiment. Thanks to the precise prediction of…
