Abstract

We discuss a method to extract the CKM γ\gamma angle combining Dalitz plot analysis of B±K±π+πB^{\pm} \to K^{\pm} \pi^+ \pi^- and untagged B0B^0, Bˉ0Ksπ+π\bar B^0 \to K_s \pi^+ \pi^-. The method also allows obtaining the ratio and phase difference between the {\it tree} and {\it penguin} contributions from B0B^0 and Bˉ0K±π\bar B^0 \to K^{*\pm} \pi^{\mp} decays and direct CP asymmetry between B0B^0 and B0ˉ\bar{B^0}. From Monte Carlo studies of 100K events for the neutral mesons, we show the possibility of measuring γ\gamma with a precision of 5o\sim 5^o.
