A binned Dalitz plot analysis of $B^pm to D K^pm$ decays, with $D to K^0_{rm S} pi^+pi^-$ and $D to K^0_{rm S} K^+ K^-$, is performed to measure the CP-violating observables $x_{pm}$ and $y_{pm}$ which are sensitive to the CKM angle $gamma$. The analysis exploits 1.0 $rm fb^{-1}$ of data collected by the LHCb experiment. The study makes no model-based assumption on the variation of the strong phase of the D decay amplitude over the Dalitz plot, but uses measurements of this quantity from CLEO-c as input. The values of the parameters are found to be $x_- = (0.0 pm 4.3 pm 1.5 pm 0.6) times 10^{-2}$, $y_- = (2.7 pm 5.2 pm 0.8 pm 2.3) times 10^{-2}$, $x_+ = (-10.3 pm 4.5 pm 1.8 pm 1.4)times 10^{-2}$ and $y_+ = (-0.9 pm 3.7 pm 0.8 pm 3.0)times 10^{-2}$. The first, second, and third uncertainties are the statistical, the experimental systematic, and the error associated with the precision of the strong-phase parameters measured at CLEO-c, respectively. These results correspond to $gamma = (44^{,+43}_{,-38})^circ$, with a second solution at $gamma to gamma + 180^circ$, and $r_B = 0.07 pm 0.04$, where $r_B$ is the ratio between the suppressed and favoured B decay amplitudes.

A measurement of $CP$-violating observables is performed using the decays $B^pmto D K^pm$ and $B^pmto D pi^pm$, where the $D$ meson is reconstructed in one of the self-conjugate three-body final states $K_{mathrm S}pi^+pi^-$ and $K_{mathrm S}K^+K^-$ (commonly denoted $K_{mathrm S} h^+h^-$). The decays are analysed in bins of the $D$-decay phase space, leading to a measurement that is independent of the modelling of the $D$-decay amplitude. The observables are interpreted in terms of the CKM angle $gamma$. Using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9,text{fb}^{-1}$ collected in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of $7$, $8$, and $13,text{TeV}$ with the LHCb experiment, $gamma$ is measured to be $left(68.7^{+5.2}_{-5.1}right)^circ$. The hadronic parameters $r_B^{DK}$, $r_B^{Dpi}$, $delta_B^{DK}$, and $delta_B^{Dpi}$, which are the ratios and strong-phase differences of the suppressed and favoured $B^pm$ decays, are also reported.
A first study of CP violation in the decay modes $B^pmto [K^0_{rm S} K^pm pi^mp]_D h^pm$ and $B^pmto [K^0_{rm S} K^mp pi^pm]_D h^pm$, where $h$ labels a $K$ or $pi$ meson and $D$ labels a $D^0$ or $overline{D}^0$ meson, is performed. The analysis uses the LHCb data set collected in $pp$ collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$. The analysis is sensitive to the CP-violating CKM phase $gamma$ through seven observables: one charge asymmetry in each of the four modes and three ratios of the charge-integrated yields. The results are consistent with measurements of $gamma$ using other decay modes.
We report a search for charmless hadronic decays of charged $B$ mesons to the final states $K^{0}_{S} K^{0}_{S} K^{pm}$ and $K^{0}_{S} K^{0}_{S} pi^{pm}$ . The results are based on a $711 {fb}^{-1}$ data sample that contains $772 times 10^6$ $B bar{B}$ pairs, and was collected at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. For $B^{pm} to K^{0}_{S} K^{0}_{S} K^{pm}$ decays, the measured branching fraction and direct $CP$ asymmetry are $[10.64pm0.49(stat)pm 0.44(syst)]times10^{-6}$ and [$-0.6pm3.9(stat)pm 3.4(syst)$] %, respectively. In the absence of a statistically significant signal for $B^{pm}to K^{0}_{S} K^{0}_{S} pi^{pm}$, we set the 90 % confidence-level upper limit on its branching fraction at $1.14 times 10^{-6}$.
A binned Dalitz plot analysis of $B^pm to D K^pm$ decays, with $D to K_S pi^+pi^-$ and $D to K_S K^+ K^-$, is performed to measure the CP-violating observables $x_{pm}$ and $y_{pm}$, which are sensitive to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle $gamma$. The analysis exploits a sample of proton-proton collision data corresponding to 3.0invfb collected by the LHCb experiment. Measurements from CLEO-c of the variation of the strong-interaction phase of the $D$ decay over the Dalitz plot are used as inputs. The values of the parameters are found to be $x_+ = (-7.7 pm 2.4 pm 1.0 pm 0.4)times 10^{-2}$, $x_- = (2.5 pm 2.5 pm 1.0 pm 0.5) times 10^{-2}$, $y_+ = (-2.2 pm 2.5 pm 0.4 pm 1.0)times 10^{-2}$, and $y_- = (7.5 pm 2.9 pm 0.5 pm 1.4) times 10^{-2}$. The first, second, and third uncertainties are the statistical, the experimental systematic, and that associated with the precision of the strong-phase parameters. These are the most precise measurements of these observables and correspond to $gamma = (62^{,+15}_{,-14})^circ$, with a second solution at $gamma to gamma + 180^circ$, and $r_B = 0.080^{+ 0.019}_{-0.021}$, where $r_B$ is the ratio between the suppressed and favoured $B$ decay amplitudes.
