We present a method for cleanly extracting the CP phase gamma from the Dalitz plots of B+ -> K+ pi+ pi-, Bd -> K+ pi0 pi-, Bd -> K0 pi+ pi-, Bd -> K+ K0 K-, and Bd -> K0 K0 Kbar0. The B -> K pi pi and B -> K K Kbar decays are related by…

We review the subject of CP violation in the $B$ meson system within the Standard Model of CP violation, which is based on a complex phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. Three kinds of CP nonconservation are studied: In…

We describe a method for measuring CP-violation parameters from which the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle $\gamma$ may be extracted. The method makes use of the total decay rates in $B^\pm \to DK^\pm$ decays, where the neutral $D$ meson…

We consider the possibility of extracting the CKM angle $\gamma$ with $B_c$ decays. The modes $B_c^\pm \to (D^0) D_s^\pm \to (K^{*+}K^-) D_s^\pm $ and $B_c^\pm \to (\bar D^0) D_s^\pm \to (K^{*+}K^-) D_s^\pm $ are found to be well suited for…

A data sample collected with the LHCb detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$ is used to measure eleven $CP$ violation observables in $B^\pm\to Dh^\pm$ decays, where $h$ is either a kaon or a pion. The neutral $D$…

In this proceeding I present the latest result by the LHCb collaboration in determining the CKM angle $\gamma$ ($(73^{+9}_{-10})^{\circ}$). The result is determined by combining several $B \to Dh$ analyses, and the latest results from the…

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^-…

Several methods exist to measure $CP$ violation observables related to the CKM unitarity triangle angle $\gamma$ using $B$ meson decays. These observables are different for every $B$ meson decay considered, although the information they…

The strong-phase differences between D0 and D0bar decays to common final states are crucial parameters in the determination of the CKM angle gamma from B to DK modes. The first quantum-correlated measurements of these parameters in several…

A measurement of $CP$-violating observables is performed using the decays $B^\pm\to D K^\pm$ and $B^\pm\to D \pi^\pm$, where the $D$ meson is reconstructed in one of the self-conjugate three-body final states $K_{\mathrm S}\pi^+\pi^-$ and…

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…

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…

Direct CP violation in decays such as B- -> D0 K- is sensitive to the CKM angle phi_3 because these decays allow the interference of b-quark to c-quark with b-quark to u-quark transitions. Indeed, phi_3 may be determined if one can infer…

Of the three angles that make up the CKM matrix, the least well known is gamma. A precision measurement of this quantity is highly desirable as it forms one of the arbitrary parameters in the Standard Model. Moreover, this is the one angle…

The most sensitive method to measure the CKM angle gamma is to exploit interference in B(+/-)->DK(+/-) decays, with the D-meson decaying to a hadronic final state. The analysis of quantum-correlated decays of the psi(3770) at CLEO-c…
