The LHCb approach for a precise determination of the CKM angle $\gamma$ from tree--level decays is presented. Up to 16 independent determinations, using a variety of beauty and charm mesons decay modes, are available at LHCb. Not all of…
We study CP violation in b-baryon decays of $\Xi_b^- \to \Xi^- D$ with $D = D^0, \bar{D}^0$ and $D_i~(i=1,2)$. We find that these baryonic decay processes provide an ideal opportunity to measure the weak phase due to the absence of the…
Strategies that utilise the interference effects within $B^{\pm} \to DK^{\pm}$ decays hold great potential for improving our sensitivity to the CKM angle $\gamma$. However, in order to exploit fully this potential, detailed knowledge of the…

The interference between Cabibbo-favoured and Cabibbo-suppressed $B\to D\pi$ decay amplitudes provides sensitivity to the CKM angle $\gamma$. The relative size of the interfering amplitudes is an important ingredient in the determination of…

The tree-level measurement of the CKM $\gamma$ angle is a crucial test of $CP$ violation in the Standard Model (SM). Discrepancies between direct measurements (tree-level decays) and indirect measurements (loop decays) could indicate…

Motivated by the first observation of CP violation in $b$-baryon decays, the search for baryonic decays exhibiting large CP violation will be a primary focus in the coming years. We propose that significant CP-violating effects exist in the…
