It has recently been suggested that the sensitivity can be significantly enhanced by analysing the $B^0 \\to DK^+\\pi^-$ Dalitz plot to extract amplitudes relative to those of the flavour-specific decay $B^0 \\to D_2^{*-}K^+$. An extension to this method which includes the case where the neutral $D$ meson is reconstructed in suppressed final states is presented. The sensitivity to $\\gamma$ is estimated using this method and compared to that obtained using the $B^0 \\to DK^{*0}$ decay alone. Experimental effects, such as background contamination, are also considered. This approach appears to be a highly attractive addition to the family of methods that can be used to determine $\\gamma$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-11-05T16:51:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.15.Hh", "11.30.Er", "13.25.Hw" ], "keywords": [ "unitarity triangle angle gamma", "dalitz plot", "extract amplitudes", "approach appears", "flavour-specific decay" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review D", "year": 2009, "month": "Nov", "volume": 80, "number": 9, "pages": "092002" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 830589, "adsabs": "2009PhRvD..80i2002G" } } }
