Quantum-correlated psi(3770)->DDbar decays collected by the CLEO-c experiment are used to perform first measurements of F+, the fractional CP-even content of the self-conjugate decays D->pi+pi-pi0 and D->K+K-pi0. Values of 0.968 +/- 0.017 +/- 0.006 and 0.731 +/- 0.058 +/- 0.021 are obtained for pi+pi-pi0 and K+K-pi0, respectively. It is demonstrated how modes of this sort can be cleanly included in measurements of the unitarity triangle angle gamma using B+/- -> D K+/- decays. The high CP-even content of D -> pi+pi-pi0, in particular, makes this a promising mode for improving the precision on gamma.

Quantum-correlated $psi(3770) to Dbar{D}$ decays collected by the CLEO-c experiment are used to perform a first measurement of $F_+^{4pi}$, the fractional $CP$-even content of the self-conjugate decay $D to pi^+pi^-pi^+pi^-$, obtaining a value of $0.737 pm 0.028$. An important input to the measurement comes from the use of $D to K^0_{rm S}pi^+pi^-$ and $D to K^0_{rm L}pi^+pi^-$ decays to tag the signal mode. This same technique is applied to the channels $D topi^+pi^-pi^0$ and $D to K^+K^-pi^0$, yielding $F_+^{pipipi^0} = 1.014 pm 0.045 pm 0.022$ and $F_+^{KKpi^0} = 0.734 pm 0.106 pm 0.054$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. These measurements are consistent with those of an earlier analysis, based on $CP$-eigenstate tags, and can be combined to give values of $F_+^{pipipi^0} = 0.973 pm 0.017$ and $F_+^{KKpi^0} = 0.732 pm 0.055$. The results will enable the three modes to be included in a model-independent manner in measurements of the unitarity triangle angle $gamma$ using $B^mp to DK^mp$ decays, and in time-dependent studies of $CP$ violation and mixing in the $Dbar{D}$ system.

Measurements of the coherence factors (R_Kpipi0 and R_K3pi) and the average strong-phase differences (delta^Kpipi0_D and delta^K3pi_D) for the decays D0-> K-pi+pi0 and D0->K-pi+pi+pi- are presented. These parameters are important inputs to the determination of the unitarity triangle angle gamma in B+/- -> DK+/- decays, where D designates a D0 or D0bar meson decaying to a common final state. The measurements are made using quantum correlated DDbar decays collected by the CLEO-c experiment at the psi(3770) resonance, and augment a previously published analysis by the inclusion of new events in which the signal decay is tagged by the mode D-> K0Spi+pi-. The measurements also benefit from improved knowledge of external inputs, namely the D0D0bar mixing parameters, r_D^Kpi and several D-meson branching fractions. The measured values are R_Kpipi0 = 0.82 +- 0.07, delta_D^Kpipi0 = (164+20-14) deg., R_K3pi = 0.32+0.20-0.28 and delta^K3pi_D = (225+21_-78) deg. Consideration is given to how these measurements can be improved further by using the larger quantum-correlated data set collected by BESIII.
As first observed by the NA48/2 experiment at the CERN SPS, the $p0p0$ invariant mass (M00) distribution from $kcnn$ decay shows a cusp-like anomaly at M00=2m+, where m+ is the charged pion mass. An analysis to extract the pi pi scattering lengths in the isospin I=0 and I=2 states, a0 and a2, respectively, has been recently reported. In the present work the Dalitz plot of this decay is fitted to a new empirical parameterization suitable for practical purposes, such as Monte Carlo simulations of K+- -> pi+- pi0 pi0 decays.
The branching fractions of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^+rightarrow K^-K^+K^+$, $D^+rightarrow pi^-pi^+K^+$ and $D^+_srightarrowpi^-K^+K^+$ are measured using the decays $D^+rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^+$ and $D^+_srightarrow K^-K^+pi^+$ as normalisation channels. The measurements are performed using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.0 fb$^{-1}$. The results are begin{align} frac {mathcal{B}(D^+rightarrow K^-K^+K^+)} {mathcal{B}(D^+rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^+)}& = (6.541 pm 0.025 pm 0.042) times 10^{-4}, onumber frac {mathcal{B}(D^+rightarrow pi^-pi^+K^+)} {mathcal{B}(D^+rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^+)}& = (5.231 pm 0.009 pm 0.023) times 10^{-3}, onumber frac {mathcal{B}(D^+_srightarrowpi^-K^+K^+)} {mathcal{B}(D^+_srightarrow K^-K^+pi^+)}& = (2.372 pm 0.024 pm 0.025) times 10^{-3}, onumber end{align} where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. These are the most precise measurements up to date.
First observations of the Cabibbo suppressed decays B0bar -->D+ K- pi+ pi- and B- --> D0 K- pi+ pi- are reported using 35 pb^{-1} of data collected with the LHCb detector. Their branching fractions are measured with respect to the corresponding Cabibbo favored decays, from which we obtain B(B0bar --> D+ K- pi+ pi-)/B(B0bar --> D+ pi- pi+ pi-)=(5.9pm1.1pm0.5) x 10^{-2} and B(B- --> D0 K- pi+ pi-)/B(B- --> D0 pi- pi+ pi-)=(9.4pm1.3pm0.9) x 10^{-2}, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The B- --> D0 K- pi+ pi- decay is particularly interesting, as it can be used in a similar way to B- --> D0 K- to measure the CKM phase gamma.
