A search for $CP$ violation in the Cabibbo-suppressed $D^0 rightarrow K^+ K^- pi^+ pi^-$ decay mode is performed using an amplitude analysis. The measurement uses a sample of $pp$ collisions recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 and 2012, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$. The $D^0$ mesons are reconstructed from semileptonic $b$-hadron decays into $D^0mu^- X$ final states. The selected sample contains more than 160000 signal decays, allowing the most precise amplitude modelling of this $D^0$ decay to date. The obtained amplitude model is used to perform the search for $CP$ violation. The result is compatible with $CP$ symmetry, with a sensitivity ranging from 1% to 15% depending on the amplitude considered.

We present an amplitude analysis of the decay $D^{0} rightarrow K^{-} pi^{+} pi^{+} pi^{-}$ based on a data sample of 2.93 ${mbox{,fb}^{-1}}$ acquired by the BESIII detector at the $psi(3770)$ resonance. With a nearly background free sample of about 16000 events, we investigate the substructure of the decay and determine the relative fractions and the phases among the different intermediate processes. Our amplitude model includes the two-body decays $D^{0} rightarrow bar{K}^{*0}rho^{0}$, $D^{0} rightarrow K^{-}a_{1}^{+}(1260)$ and $D^{0} rightarrow K_{1}^{-}(1270)pi^{+}$, the three-body decays $D^{0} rightarrow bar{K}^{*0}pi^{+}pi^{-}$ and $D^{0} rightarrow K^{-}pi^{+}rho^{0}$, as well as the four-body decay $D^{0} rightarrow K^{-}pi^{+}pi^{+}pi^{-}$. The dominant intermediate process is $D^{0} rightarrow K^{-}a_{1}^{+}(1260)$, accounting for a fit fraction of $54.6%$.
Time-integrated $CP$ asymmetries in $D^0$ decays to the final states $K^- K^+$ and $pi^- pi^+$ are measured using proton-proton collisions corresponding to $3mathrm{,fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected at centre-of-mass energies of $7mathrm{ ,Tekern -0.1em V}$ and $8mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$. The $D^0$ mesons are produced in semileptonic $b$-hadron decays, where the charge of the accompanying muon is used to determine the initial flavour of the charm meson. The difference in $CP$ asymmetries between the two final states is measured to be begin{align} Delta A_{CP} = A_{CP}(K^-K^+)-A_{CP}(pi^-pi^+) = (+0.14 pm 0.16mathrm{,(stat)} pm 0.08mathrm{,(syst)})% . onumber end{align} A measurement of $A_{CP}(K^-K^+)$ is obtained assuming negligible $CP$ violation in charm mixing and in Cabibbo-favoured $D$ decays. It is found to be begin{align} A_{CP}(K^-K^+) = (-0.06 pm 0.15mathrm{,(stat)} pm 0.10mathrm{,(syst)}) % , onumber end{align} where the correlation coefficient between $Delta A_{CP}$ and $A_{CP}(K^-K^+)$ is $rho=0.28$. By combining these results, the $CP$ asymmetry in the $D^0rightarrowpi^-pi^+$ channel is $A_{CP}(pi^-pi^+)=(-0.20pm0.19mathrm{,(stat)}pm0.10mathrm{,(syst)})%$.
The Dalitz plot distribution of $B^0 rightarrow bar{D}^0 K^+ pi^-$ decays is studied using a data sample corresponding to $3.0rm{fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 and 2012. The data are described by an ampli tude model that contains contributions from intermediate $K^*(892)^0$, $K^*(1410)^0$, $K^*_2(1430)^0$ and $D^*_2(2460)^-$ resonances. The model also contains components to describe broad structures, including the $K^*_0(1430)^0$ and $D^*_0(2400)^-$ resonances, in the $Kpi$ S-wave and the $Dpi$ S- and P-waves. The masses and widths of the $D^*_0(2400)^-$ and $D^*_2(2460)^-$ resonances are measured, as are the complex amplitudes and fit fractions for all components included in the amplitude model. The model obtained will be an integral part of a future determination of the angle $gamma$ of the CKM quark mixing matrix using $B^0 rightarrow D K^+ pi^-$ decays.
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 T eV, 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.
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 corr esponding 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.
