Measurements of $CP$ observables in $B^pm rightarrow D^{(*)} K^pm$ and $B^pm rightarrow D^{(*)} pi^pm$ decays are presented, where $D^{(*)}$ indicates a neutral $D$ or $D^*$ meson that is an admixture of $D^{(*)0}$ and $bar{D}^{(*)0}$ states. Decays of the $D^*$ meson to the $Dpi^0$ and $Dgamma$ final states are partially reconstructed without inclusion of the neutral pion or photon, resulting in distinctive shapes in the $B$ candidate invariant mass distribution. Decays of the $D$ meson are fully reconstructed in the $K^pm pi^mp$, $K^+ K^-$ and $pi^+ pi^-$ final states. The analysis uses a sample of charged $B$ mesons produced in $pp$ collisions collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.0, 1.0 and 2.0 fb$^{-1}$ taken at centre-of-mass energies of $sqrt{s}$ = 7, 8 and 13 TeV, respectively. The study of $B^{pm} to D^{*} K^{pm}$ and $B^{pm} to D^{*} pi^{pm}$ decays using a partial reconstruction method is the first of its kind, while the measurement of $B^{pm} to D K^{pm}$ and $B^{pm} to D pi^{pm}$ decays is an update of previous LHCb measurements. The $B^{pm} to D K^{pm}$ results are the most precise to date.

Measurements of $C!P$ observables in $B^pm rightarrow D^{(*)} K^pm$ and $B^pm rightarrow D^{(*)} pi^pm$ decays are presented, where $D^{(*)}$ indicates a neutral $D$ or $D^*$ meson that is an admixture of meson and anti-meson states. Decays of the $D^*$ meson to the $Dpi^0$ and $Dgamma$ final states are partially reconstructed without inclusion of the neutral pion or photon. Decays of the $D$ meson are reconstructed in the $K^pm pi^mp$, $K^+K^-$, and $pi^+pi^-$ final states. The analysis uses a sample of charged $B$ mesons produced in proton-proton collisions and collected with the LHCb experiment, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 2.0, 1.0, and 5.7 fb$^{-1}$ taken at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV, respectively. The measurements of partially reconstructed $B^pm to D^* K^pm$ and $B^pm to D^* pi^pm$ with $D to K^mp pi^pm$ decays are the first of their kind, and a first observation of the $B^pm to (D pi^0)_{D^*} pi^pm$ decay is made with a significance of 6.1 standard deviations. All $C!P$ observables are measured with world-best precision, and in combination with other LHCb results will provide strong constraints on the CKM angle $gamma$.
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.
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 $K^pmpi^mp$, $pi^pm K^mp$, $K^+K^-$, $pi^+pi^-$, $K^pmpi^mp pi^+ pi^-$, $pi^pm K^mp pi^+ pi^-$ and $pi^+ pi^- pi^+ pi^-$. This analysis uses a sample of charged $B$ mesons from $pp$ collisions collected by the LHCb experiment in 2011 and 2012, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$. Various CP-violating effects are reported and together these measurements provide important input for the determination of the unitarity triangle angle $gamma$. The analysis of the four-pion $D$ decay mode is the first of its kind.
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.
