This paper reviews the Dalitz plot analysis for the decays $B^0(\bar B^0) \to \rho \pi \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$. We discuss what can be learned about the ten parameters in this analysis from untagged and from tagged time-integrated data. We…

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…

We show that the CKM phase $2 \beta+\gamma$ can be extracted from measurement of the time dependent rates in the decays $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{(*)\pm} M^\mp$ and $B^0 \to D^{(*)\pm} M^\mp$, where $M=a_0$, $\pi(1300)$, $b_1$, $a_2$, $\pi_2$,…

We discuss what we can understand from $\phi_1$ and $B^0_d\to \pi^+ \pi^- $ decay mode. Using a convention without weak phases $\phi_2$ and $\phi_3$, we can solve the parameters from the time-depended CP asymmetry. If we can put a condition…

It is shown that it is possible to perform a model-independent extraction of the CKM Unitarity Triangle angle $\gamma$ using only the decays $B^0\to D K^+\pi^-$ with $D\to K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$ and $B^0\to D K^+\pi^-$ with flavour-specific $D$…

The extraction of the CKM angle $\alpha$ from the asymmetry in $B^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-$ vs ${\bar B^0} \to \pi^+\pi^-$ suffers from a currently unknown penguin contribution. Experimentally, one can determine the magnitude and phase of the CP…
