Several time-independent methods have been devised for measuring the phase gamma of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa unitarity triangle. It is shown that such measurements generally suffer from discrete ambiguity which is at least 8-fold, not…

We analyze the partial rate asymmetry in $B^{\pm} \to P {\bar P} \pi^{\pm}$ decays ($ P = \pi^+, K ^+, \pi^0, \eta$) which results from the interference of the nonresonant decay amplitude and the resonant amplitude for $B^{\pm} \to…

We describe a new method for extracting weak, CP-violating phase information, with no hadronic uncertainties, from an angular analysis of B -> V_1 V_2 decays, where V_1 and V_2 are vector mesons. The quantity $\sin^2 (2 \phi_1 + \phi_3)$…

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 weak phase \gamma can be determined using untagged B^0\to DK_S or B_s\to D\phi, D\eta^{(')} decays. In the past, the small lifetime difference y\equiv \Delta\Gamma/(2\Gamma) has been neglected in B^0, while the CP violating parameter…

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 $M=a_0$, $\pi(1300)$, $b_1$, $a_2$, $\pi_2$,…
