We present a new, amplitude model-independent method to measure the CP violation parameter $\gamma$ in $B^- \to DK^-$ and related decays. Information on charm interference parameters, usually obtained from charm threshold data, is obtained…

A binned Dalitz plot analysis of the decays $B^0 \to D K^{\ast 0}$, with $D \to K_{S}^{0} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $K_{S}^{0} K^{+} K^{-}$, is performed to measure the observables $x_\pm$ and $y_\pm$, which are related to the CKM angle $\gamma$…
We describe how the angular analysis of vector-vector final states in B decays provides theoretically clean techniques for determination of CP violating phases. The quantity $\sin^2 (2\beta + \gamma)$ can be cleanly obtained from the time…
A recent combination of measurements performed by the LHCb collaboration determined that $\gamma=(63.8^{+3.5}_{-3.7})^\circ$. The fit combined the results of $\gamma$ and charm measurements, which resulted in precision improvements for the…
We report on measurements of the time-dependent CP violating observables in $B^0_s\rightarrow D^{\mp}_s K^{\pm}$ decays using a dataset corresponding to 1.0 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collisions recorded with the LHCb detector. We find the CP…
We explore the exclusive $ B^0 \to \rho^0 \gamma$ decay to obtain the time-dependent CP asymmetry in $b \to d \gamma$ decay process. We find that the complex RL and RR mass insertion to the squark sector in the MSSM can lead to a large…
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…
In a recently suggested method for measuring the weak phase $\gamma$ in $B^\pm \to K^\pm (KK^*)_D$ decays, the relative strong phase $\delta_D$ in $D^0 \to K^{*+} K^-$ and $D^0 \to K^{*-} K^+$ decays (equivalently, in $D^0 \to K^{*+} K^-$…
We propose a method for determining $\gamma$ using $B^\pm\to D K^\pm$ decays followed by a multibody $D$ decay, such as $D \to K_S \pi^-\pi^+$, $D \to K_S K^-K^+$ and $D \to K_S \pi^-\pi^+\pi^0$. The main advantages of the method is that it…
We report results from the first measurements of the CKM angle $\gamma$ using $B\rightarrow DK$ decays with the LHCb experiment. Three well established methods are used to extract the CP observables. The updated measurement of $\gamma$ in…

Phases of elements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix can be obtained using decays of $B$ mesons to $\pi^+ \pi^-$, $\pi^\pm K^\mp$, and $\pi^+ K^0$ or $\pi^- \overline{K}^0$. For $B^0~{\rm or}~ \overline{B}^0 \to \pi^+ \pi^-$,…
A sensitivity study for the measurement of the CKM angle $\gamma$ from $B^0_s\rightarrow \tilde{D}^{(*)0}\phi$ decays is performed using $D$ meson reconstructed in the quasi flavour-specific modes $K\pi$, $K3\pi$, $K\pi\pi^0$, and…
We show that the CP phase \gamma can be obtained from measurements of Bd(t) -> D(*)+ D(*)- and Bd -> Ds(*)+ D(*)-. These decays are related by flavor SU(3) in the limit where spectator-quark contributions are small. If the…

A measurement of $C\!P$-violating observables in $B^{\pm} \to D^{*} K^{\pm}$ and $B^{\pm} \to D^{*} \pi^{\pm}$ decays is made where the photon or neutral pion from the $D^{*} \to D\gamma$ or $D^{*} \to D\pi^{0}$ decay is not reconstructed.…
Quantum correlations in $\psi(3770) \to D^0\bar{D}^0$ provide unique access to information about strong phase differences. Precision determination of the CKM phase $\gamma/\phi_3$ via $B \to D K$ decays depends upon constraints on charm…
The CKM paradigm has been tested thoroughly over the last 40 years in both the neutral $K$ and $B$ systems. The recent discovery of neutral charm meson mixing has prompted the search for CP violation in $D$ decays. We discuss the prospects…
