A new method to extract the weak phase $\gamma$ is suggested by exploiting B ---> D K^{(*)} decay modes that are not Cabibbo suppressed, using the isospin relations, and ignoring the annihilation diagram as usual. Assuming $3 \times 10^8…
The time-dependent analysis of the decays $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda +D^0(t)$ and $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda +\bar{D}^0(t)$ is discussed. The effect of particle mixing due to time evolution of $D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0$ on the observables for these decays…

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^-…
The decays $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$ and $B^\pm\to\pi^\pm K$ provide interesting constraints on the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix. It is shown that bounds on $\gamma$ can also be obtained from the time evolution of…
The CKM angle $\gamma$ is determined from $C\!P$-violating observables measured in ${B^\pm \to D[ K^\mp \pi^\pm\pi^\pm\pi^\mp] h^\pm}$, $(h = K,\pi)$ decays, where the measurements are performed in bins of the decay phase-space of the $D$…
Decays of the kind $B_s\to D_s^{\pm}K^\mp, D_s^{\ast\pm}K^\mp, ...$ and $B_d\to D^{\pm}\pi^\mp, D^{\ast\pm}\pi^\mp, ...$ allow us to probe $\phi_s+\gamma$ and $\phi_d+\gamma$, respectively, involving the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity…
Several new strategies to extract CKM phases, including a determination of $\gamma$ from $B_{s(d)}\to J/\psi K_S$ decays and a general approach, which makes use of the angular distributions of certain $B_{d,s}$ modes, such as $B_d\to J/\psi…

We suggest a new technique to determine the CKM phase $\gamma$ {\em without} neglecting the (soft) final state rescattering effects. We use (time integrated) $B$ meson decay rates to $\pi$'s and $K$'s. A set of 5 $\Delta S = 0$ (or 1…
We report the observation of the decay $B^- \to D_{\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0} K^-$, where $D_{\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0}$ indicates a neutral $D$ meson detected in the final state $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$, excluding $K_S \pi^0$. This doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay…
The decay mode $B^{0}_{s} \to D^{\mp}_s K^{\pm}$ allows for one of the theoretically cleanest time dependent measurements of the CKM angle $\gamma$. This contribution reports the world best branching fraction of this decay relative to the…
In this paper we present a feasibility study for measuring the combination of the Unitarity Triangle angle 2$\beta +\gamma$ with a time dependent Dalitz analysis in $B^0$ decays using $D^- K^0 \pi^+$ final states following the method…
$B^\pm \to (D^0, \bar D^0, D_{CP})K^{*\pm}_{0,2}$ decays are helpful in determining the CP violation angle $\gamma$, and we analyze these decay processes within the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization. We found that the…
We present recent measurements of the CKM angles alpha and gamma using data collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+ e- collider at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. In addition to constraints on alpha from…
First measurements of the CP observables from a time-dependent analysis of $\bar{B}^0_s\to D_s^+K^-$ decays are reported. We also present the first observation of the $\bar{B}^0_{(s)}\to D_s^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-$ and $\bar{B}^0_s\to…

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…
