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…

We analyze the three-body charmless decay B+- -> K+-K+-K-+ using a sample of 226.0 +- 2.5 million BBbar pairs collected by the BABAR detector. We measure the total branching fraction and CP asymmetry to be B = (35.2 +- 0.9 +-1.6) x 10^{-6}…

We present a method for measuring the weak phase gamma using isospin analysis of three body B decays into K pi pi channels. Differential decay widths and time dependent asymmetry in B_d -> K_s pi^+pi^- mode needs to be measured into even…

We report first observations of the decays B- to Ds(*)+ K- pi-, using 292 fb^-1 of data collected at Upsilon(4S) resonance energy by the BaBar detector at the PEP II e+ e- collider. The branching fractions are measured to be B(B- to Ds+ K-…

We study CP-violation in resonant three-body B -> DPP decays, where PP stands for either Dpi, DK_S, pipi or piK_S. Analogously to the B -> 3pi channel and the extraction of 2alpha, the first three channels are shown to measure cos(2beta) in…

We search for decays of a B meson into a neutral D meson and a kaon, with the D meson decaying into K+pi-pi0. This final state can be reached through the b --> c transition B- -> D0K- followed by the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed D0 -->…

We discuss a method to extract the CKM $\gamma$ angle combining Dalitz plot analysis of $B^{\pm} \to K^{\pm} \pi^+ \pi^-$ and untagged $B^0$, $\bar B^0 \to K_s \pi^+ \pi^-$. The method also allows obtaining the ratio and phase difference…

Constraints on the CKM angle \gamma are presented from GLW, ADS, and GGSZ analyses of B+- -> D K+- at the LHCb experiment. The branching fractions of B0 -> D0bar K+ \pi- and Bs -> D0bar K- \pi+ are also reported, measured relative to the…

The decays D^* -> D\pi and D^* -> D\gamma are well described by heavy meson chiral perturbation theory. With the recent measurement of Br(D^{*+} -> D^+ \gamma), the D^{*0}, D^{*+}, and D_s^* branching fractions can be used to extract the…

Some years ago, a method was proposed for measuring the CP-violating phase gamma using pairs of two-body decays that are related by U-spin reflection (d <-> s). In this paper we adapt this method to charmless B -> PPP decays. Time-dependent…

We perform a time-dependent Dalitz plot analysis of $B^0 \to K^0_{\scriptscriptstyle S}\pi^+\pi^-$ in order to extract the ${CP}$ violation parameters of $f_0(980) K^0_{\scriptscriptstyle S}$ and $\rho^0(770) K^0_{\scriptscriptstyle S}$ and…

We present a measurement of $B(\pi^0 \rightarrow e^+e^- \gamma)/B(\pi^0 \rightarrow \gamma\gamma)$, the Dalitz branching ratio, using data taken in 1999 by the E832 KTeV experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. We use neutral…

We re-examine the time-dependent rates of $\bs(t) \to K^+ K^-$ and $\obs(t) \to K^+ K^-$, including a lifetime difference between neutral $\bs$ mass eigenstates. The two rates, normalized by the rate of $\bs \to \ko \ok$, are used to obtain…
