We discuss the determination of the CKM phase gamma through the decay B- -> K- D0 and related processes. In particular, we consider the use of this methods when the D0 subsequently decays to an inclusive state. We emphasize that strong…

We discuss some aspects of the search for CP asymmetry in the three body B decays, revealed through the interference among neighbor resonances in the Dalitz plot. We propose a competitive method to extract the CKM $\gamma$ angle combining…

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…

A measurement of the flavour-untagged decay-time-integrated ${C\!P}$ asymmetry in the flavour-specific decay ${B_s^0 \to D_s^-\pi^+}$, ${\langle A^s_{\rm untagged}\rangle}$, is performed using proton-proton collision data collected by the…

The normalised decay rate of $B^+ \to J/\psi(\to \mu^+\mu^-) K^+$ is measured as a function of the lepton helicity angle using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.1 \text{fb}^{-1}$ collected during October 2024…

We report on studies of three types of B-meson decay that can contribute to an understanding of fundamental intergenerational quark mixing, charge-conjugation--parity violation, and long-distance quantum chromodynamics. Specifically, we…

The inclusive direct and cascade semileptonic branching ratios of the b quark were measured from a fit to the lepton momentum spectrum in the B-hadron rest frame, exploiting the charge correlation between the lepton and the heavy meson. The…

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…

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

Using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$, recorded by the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, the $B_{c}^{+} \rightarrow D^{0} K^{+}$ decay is observed with a…

A natural procedure is presented to measure the angle $\gamma$ from the decay $B^{\pm} \to \pi^{\pm}\pi^+\pi^-$. It is based in the Dalitz plot fitting analysis. Neither amplitudes nor strong phases have to be known a priori. We present…

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 $\gamma$…

Precision lifetime measurements of $b$-flavoured hadrons are an important test of the validity of the theoretical tool used to determine $b$-hadrons observables, the Heavy Quark Expansion. Recent measurements of the $B^+$, $\Lambda^0_b$,…

Measurements of mixing and $CP$ violation in $b$-hadron decays are great probes to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. A selection of recent results based upon $3.0\ \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of LHCb data are presented. These are the…

A study of $\Lambda_b^0$ baryon decays to the $DpK^-$ final state is presented based on a proton-proton collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb detector. Two $\Lambda_b^0$…

Measurements of $b$-hadron lifetimes are reported using $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of $7$Tev. Using the exclusive decays $B^+\to…

Measurements of $C\!P$ observables in $B^\pm \rightarrow D K^\pm$ and $B^\pm \rightarrow D \pi^\pm$ decays are presented where the $D$ meson is reconstructed in the final states $K^\pm\pi^\mp$, $\pi^\pm K^\mp$, $K^+K^-$, $\pi^+\pi^-$,…

The study of charmless b-hadron decays provides information for testing the CKM picture of CP violation in the Standard Model. In addition, as they can proceed through loop diagrams, they are also sensitive to physics beyond the Standard…

I review several methods for determining the CKM phases $\alpha \equiv \phi_2$ and $\gamma \equiv \phi_3$ through CP asymmetry measurements in hadronic B decays. The current status of these measurements and the near future feasibility of…

We propose the use of B -->D^**K decay modes for a theoretically clean determination of the weak phase gamma. The self tagging decays of the neutral D^** mesons, makes a measurement of the b --> u\bar{c}s amplitude feasible. This overcomes…
