We have searched for direct CP violation in quasi-two-body charmless B decays observed in a sample of about 45 million B mesons collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider. We measure the following charge asymmetries in decay:…

The strong-phase differences between $D^0\to K_{S/L}^0\pi^+\pi^-$ and $\bar{D}^0\to K_{S/L}^0\pi^+\pi^-$ decays are one of the most important inputs in measuring the $C\!P$ violating angle $\gamma$ via $B^- \to D K^-$ decays. They also play…
