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.

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.
Using a data sample corresponding to 13.7 fb^-1 collected with the CLEO II and II.V detectors, we report new branching fraction measurements for two Cabibbo-suppressed decay modes of the D^+ meson: Br(D^+ to pi^+ pi^0) = (1.3 +/- 0.2) x 10^-3 and Br(D^+ to bar{K}^0 K^+) = (5.2 +/- 0.6) x 10^-3 which are significant improvements over past measurements. The errors include statistical and systematical uncertainties as well as the uncertainty in the absolute D^+ branching fraction scale. We also set the first 90% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay mode Br(D^+ to K^+ pi^0) < 4.2 x 10^-4.
A search for decay-time-dependent charge-parity ($CP$) asymmetry in $D^0 to K^+K^-$ and $D^0 to pi^+pi^-$ decays is performed at the LHCb experiment using proton-proton collision data recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4fb$^{-1}$. The $D^0$ mesons are required to originate from semileptonic decays of $b$ hadrons, such that the charge of the muon identifies the flavor of the neutral $D$ meson at production. The asymmetries in the effective decay widths of $D^0$ and $overline{D}^0$ mesons are determined to be $A_{Gamma}(K^+K^-) = ( -4.3 pm 3.6 pm 0.5 )times 10^{-4}$ and $A_{Gamma}(pi^+pi^-) = ( 2.2 pm 7.0 pm 0.8)times 10^{-4}$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The results are consistent with $CP$ symmetry and, when combined with previous LHCb results, yield $A_{Gamma}(K^+K^-) = ( -4.4 pm 2.3 pm 0.6 )times 10^{-4}$ and $A_{Gamma}(pi^+pi^-) = ( 2.5 pm 4.3 pm 0.7)times 10^{-4}$.
An analysis of the decays of $B^mp rightarrow D K^mp$ and $B^mp rightarrow D pi^mp $ is presented in which the $D$ meson is reconstructed in the three-body final states $K^mp pi^pm pi^0$, $pi^+ pi^- pi^0$ and $K^+ K^- pi^0$. Using data from LHCb corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions, measurements of several $CP$ observables are performed. First observations are obtained of the suppressed ADS decay $B^mp rightarrow [pi^mp K^pm pi^0]_D pi^mp$ and the quasi-GLW decay $B^mp rightarrow [K^+ K^- pi^0]_D pi^mp$. The results are interpreted in the context of the unitarity triangle angle $gamma$ and related parameters.
A search for time-dependent violation of the charge-parity symmetry in $D^0 to K^+ K^-$ and $D^0 to pi^+ pi^-$ decays is performed at the LHCb experiment using proton-proton collision data recorded from 2015 to 2018 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6 fb$^{-1}$. The $D^0$ meson is required to originate from a $D^*(2010)^+ to D^0 pi^+$ decay, such that its flavour at production is identified by the charge of the accompanying pion. The slope of the time-dependent asymmetry of the decay rates of $D^0$ and $bar{D}^0$ mesons into the final states under consideration is measured to be $Delta Y_{K^+ K^-} = (-2.3 pm 1.5 pm 0.3) times 10^{-4}$, $Delta Y_{pi^+ pi^-} = (-4.0 pm 2.8 pm 0.4)times 10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These results are compatible with the conservation of the $CP$ symmetry at the level of 2 standard deviations and improve the precision by nearly a factor of two.
