The determination of the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix is regarded as a challenge for future $B$-physics experiments. In this context, the decays $B^\pm\to \pi^\pm K$ and $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$, which were…
The decays $B^\pm\to \pi^\pm K$ and $B_d\to \pi^\mp K^\pm$ were observed by the CLEO collaboration last year; they may play an important role to probe the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix. After a general…
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 discuss new, theoretically clean strategies to determine the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle from $B_d\to DK_{S(L)}$, $B_s\to D\eta^{(')}, D\phi, ...$ decays, and point out that the $B_s\to DK_{S(L)}$ and $B_d\to D\pi^0,…
We explain how a four-body amplitude analysis of the $\rm D$ decay products in the mode $\rm B^\pm \to (K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-)_D K^\pm$ is sensitive to the unitarity triangle angle $\gamma$. We present results from simulation studies which show…
The decays $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$ and $B^\pm\to\pi^\pm K$ provide interesting constraints on the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix. It is shown that bounds on $\gamma$ can also be obtained from the time evolution of…

We present a general parametrization of $B^\pm\to\pi^\pm K, \pi^0K^\pm$ and $B_d\to\pi^0 K, \pi^\mp K^\pm$ decays, taking into account both electroweak penguin and rescattering effects. This formalism allows -- among other things -- an…
After a brief look at the well-known standard approaches to determine the angle gamma of the unitarity triangle, we focus on two kinds of strategies, employing $B\to\pi K$ modes, and U-spin-related B decays. Interesting "puzzles", which may…
We give an overview of direct determinations of the angles of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix, using CP-violating effects in B-meson decays. After a discussion of B --> pi K modes, which can be described efficiently through allowed…
It has been pointed out by Gronau and Rosner that the angle gamma of the unitarity triangle could be determined by combining future results on B_s and B_d decays to K pi. Here we show that it is important to include in the analysis the…
The potential for a precise measurement of the Unitarity Triangle angle $\gamma$ in future experiments from the decay $B^0 \to DK^{*0}$ is well-known. It has recently been suggested that the sensitivity can be significantly enhanced by…
The LHCb collaboration has studied various promising ways to determine the Unitarity Triangle angle $\gamma$. Three complementary methods will be considered. The potential of the $B \to DK^{(*)}$ decays has been studied by employing the…
Decay rates of $B^0(t)\to\pi^+\pi^-,~B^0\to\pi^- K^+,~B^+\to\pi^+ K^0~ (K_S\to\pi^+\pi^-$) and of charge-conjugate processes are studied within flavor SU(3) symmetry and first-order SU(3) breaking. We show that these measurements can…
Several methods exist to measure $CP$ violation observables related to the CKM unitarity triangle angle $\gamma$ using $B$ meson decays. These observables are different for every $B$ meson decay considered, although the information they…
The angle gamma of the standard CKM unitarity triangle can be determined from B -> D K decays with a very small irreducible theoretical error, which is only due to second-order electroweak corrections. We study these contributions and…
We propose a new method to extract the CP violating weak phase $\gamma$ (the phase of $V_{ub}^*$) in the CKM paradigm of the Standard Model, using $B^- \rightarrow D^0 \pi^- \rightarrow f \pi^-$ and $B^- \rightarrow \bar D^0 \pi^-…
We discuss several cases of $B \to K \pi$ decays in which direct probes of the weak phase $\gamma$ are possible, and note what improvements are possible.
The angle $\gamma$ of the standard CKM unitarity triangle can be determined from tree-level $B$-meson decays essentially without hadronic uncertainties. We calculate the second-order electroweak corrections for the $B \to D \pi$ modes and…
The angle $\gamma$ of the Cabibbo--Kobayashi--Maskawa unitarity triangle is a benchmark parameter of the Standard Model of particle physics. A method to determine $\gamma$ from $B^{\pm} \to D K^{\pm}$ with subsequent $D \to K_{\rm…
