The $B^{-}to D^{+}K^{-}pi^{-}$ decay is observed in a data sample corresponding to $3.0~rm{fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 and 2012. Its branching fraction is measured to be ${cal B}(B^{-}to D^{+}K^{-}pi^{-}) = (7.31 pm 0.19 pm 0.22 pm 0.39) times 10^{-5}$ where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic and from the branching fraction of the normalisation channel $B^{-}to D^{+}pi^{-}pi^{-}$, respectively. An amplitude analysis of the resonant structure of the $B^{-}to D^{+}K^{-}pi^{-}$ decay is used to measure the contributions from quasi-two-body $B^{-}to D_{0}^{*}(2400)^{0}K^{-}$, $B^{-}to D_{2}^{*}(2460)^{0}K^{-}$, and $B^{-}to D_{J}^{*}(2760)^{0}K^{-}$ decays, as well as from nonresonant sources. The $D_{J}^{*}(2760)^{0}$ resonance is determined to have spin~1.

The $B^{+}to D^{+} K^{+} pi^{-}$ decay is observed in a data sample corresponding to $3.0,{rm fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 and 2012. The signal significance is $8,sigma$ and the branching fraction is me asured to be ${cal B}left(B^{+}to D^{+} K^{+} pi^{-}right) = (5.31 pm 0.90 pm 0.48 pm 0.35)times 10^{-6}$, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic and due to the normalisation mode $B^{+}to D^{-} K^{+} pi^{+}$, respectively. The Dalitz plot appears to be dominated by broad structures. Angular distributions are exploited to search for quasi-two-body contributions from $B^{+}to D^{*}_{2}(2460)^{0}K^{+}$ and $B^{+}to D^{+} K^{*}(892)^{0}$ decays. No significant signals are observed and upper limits are set on their branching fractions.
Results are reported from an amplitude analysis of the $B^+to D^+D^-K^+$ decay. The analysis is carried out using LHCb proton-proton collision data taken at $sqrt{s}=7,8,$ and $13$ TeV, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$. I n order to obtain a good description of the data, it is found to be necessary to include new spin-0 and spin-1 resonances in the $D^-K^+$ channel with masses around 2.9 GeV$/c^2$, and a new spin-0 charmonium resonance in proximity to the spin-2 $chi_{c2}(3930)$ state. The masses and widths of these resonances are determined, as are the relative contributions of all components in the amplitude model, which additionally include the vector charmonia $psi(3770)$, $psi(4040)$, $psi(4160)$ and $psi(4415)$ states and a nonresonant component.
The $B^+ to D^{*-}K^+pi^+$ decay potentially provides an excellent way to investigate charm meson spectroscopy. The decay is searched for in a sample of proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3~{rm fb}^{-1}$. A clear signal is observed, and the ratio of its branching fraction to that of the $B^+ to D^{*-}pi^+pi^+$ normalisation channel is measured to be begin{equation*} frac{mathcal{B}(B^+ to D^{*-}K^+pi^+)}{mathcal{B}(B^+ to D^{*-}pi^+pi^+)} = left( 6.39 pm 0.27 pm 0.48 right) times 10^{-2} , , end{equation*} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This is the first observation of the $B^+ to D^{*-}K^+pi^+$ decay.
The time-integrated Dalitz plot of the three-body hadronic charmless decay ${{overline{B}}^0 to K_{mathrm{scriptscriptstyle S}}^0 pi^+ pi^-}$ is studied using a $pp$ collision data sample recorded with the LHCb detector, corresponding to an integrate d luminosity of $3.0;mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. The decay amplitude is described with an isobar model. Relative contributions of the isobar amplitudes to the ${overline{B}^0 to K_{mathrm{scriptscriptstyle S}}^0 pi^+ pi^-}$ decay branching fraction and CP asymmetries of the flavour-specific amplitudes are measured. The CP asymmetry between the conjugate ${overline{B}^0 to K^{*}(892)^{-}pi^+}$ and ${overline{B}^0 to K^{*}(892)^{+}pi^-}$ decay rates is determined to be $-0.308 pm 0.062$.
The first observation of the decay $B^0 rightarrow D^0 overline{D}{}^0 K^+ pi^-$ is reported using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment in 2011, 2012 and 2016 . The measurement is performed in the full kinematically allowed range of the decay outside of the $D^{*-}$ region. The ratio of the branching fraction relative to that of the control channel $B^0 rightarrow D^{*-} D^0 K^+$ is measured to be $mathcal{R} = (14.2 pm 1.1 pm 1.0)%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The absolute branching fraction of $B^0 rightarrow D^0 overline{D}{}^0 K^+ pi^-$ decays is thus determined to be $mathcal{B}(B^0 rightarrow D^0 overline{D}{}^0 K^+ pi^-) = (3.50 pm 0.27 pm 0.26 pm 0.30) times 10^{-4}$, where the third uncertainty is due to the branching fraction of the control channel. This decay mode is expected to provide insights to spectroscopy and the charm-loop contributions in rare semileptonic decays.
