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…

Assuming SU(3) symmetry for the strong phases in the four decay modes $B\rarrow \pi^-\pi^+, \pi^0 \pi^+, \pi^- K^+, \pi^- \bar{K}^0$ and ignoring the relative small electroweak penguin effects in those decays, the weak phase $\gamma$ and…

We perform quantum-correlated measurements of the decay $D \to K^{0}_{\rm S}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}$ using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.82 fb$^{-1}$ collected at the $\psi(3770)$ resonance by the CLEO-c…

I present a measurement of the CKM angle gamma from a combination of three LHCb measurements using the tree decays B -> DK and B -> Dpi. These measurements are based on a dataset corresponding to 1.0fb-1, collected in 2011. In contrast to…

A new method for model-independent measurement of the CKM angle $\beta$ is proposed, that employs time-dependent analysis of flavour-tagged $B^0\to D\pi^+\pi^-$ decays with $D$ meson decays into CP-specific and~$K_S^0\pi^+\pi^-$ final…

A measurement of the $CP$-violating observables from $B^{\pm}\rightarrow D^* K^{\pm}$ and $B^{\pm}\rightarrow D^* \pi^{\pm}$ decays is presented, where $D^* (D) $ is an admixture of $D^{*0}$ and $\bar{D}^{*0}$ ($D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0$) states…

Constraints on the CKM angle \gamma are presented from GLW, ADS, and GGSZ analyses of B+- -> D K+- at the LHCb experiment. The branching fractions of B0 -> D0bar K+ \pi- and Bs -> D0bar K- \pi+ are also reported, measured relative to the…

As we pointed out recently, the neutral decays $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$ and $B_d\to\pi^0K$ may provide non-trivial bounds on the CKM angle $\gamma$. Here we reconsider this approach in the light of recent CLEO data, which look very…

We study the influence of penguin (especially, electroweak penguin) effects on some methods of measuring the angles $\alpha$, $\beta$, and $\gamma$ in the CKM unitarity triangle. We use next-to-leading order effective Hamiltonian, and…

We report the results of a CP violation analysis of the decay B+/- --> D(pipipi0)K+/-, where D(pipipi0) indicates a neutral D meson detected in the final state pi+pi-pi0, excluding K_S pi0. The analysis makes use of 324 million e+e- --> BB…

A measurement of the CKM angle $\gamma$ and related strong-phase parameters is performed using a novel, model-independent approach in ${B^{\pm}\rightarrow D(\rightarrow K^{0}_{\rm S} h^{\prime+}h^{\prime-}) h^{\pm}}$ decays, where…

The large branching ratios for $B \to K\pi$ decays as observed by the CLEO Collaboration indicate that penguin interactions contribute a major part to the decay rates and provide an interference between the Cabibbo-suppressed tree and…

$B^0$--$\bar B^0$ Entanglement offers a conceptual alternative to the single charged B-decay asymmetry for the measurement of the direct CP violating $\gamma/\phi_3$ phase. With $f=J/\Psi K_L,J/\Psi K_S$ and $g=(\pi\pi)^0,(\rho_L\rho_L)^0$…

In the past, it was believed that one cannot obtain clean weak-phase information from the measurement of CP-violating asymmetries in 3-body B decays. Recently it was shown that this is not true -- by expressing the decay amplitudes in terms…

Quantum-correlated measurements of the decay $D^{0} \to K^{0}_{\rm S}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}$ are performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 818 pb$^{-1}$ collected at the $\psi(3770)$ resonance by the CLEO-c…

In this paper, we study and try to find the constraint on the CKM angle alpha from the experimental measurements of CP violation in B_d^0 --> pi^+ pi^- decay, as reported very recently by BaBar and Belle Collaborations. After considering…

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…

$B^\pm \to (D^0, \bar D^0, D_{CP})K^{*\pm}_{0,2}$ 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…

The LHCb collaboration has recently reported the first observation of CP violation in the penguin-dominated $B^0_s\to K^-K^+$ decay and further new measurements, indicating differences between the direct CP asymmetries of both the $B^0_s\to…
