Abstract
First observations of the Cabibbo-suppressed decays B ̄0→D +K -π +π - and B -→D0K -π +π - are reported using 35pb -1 of data collected with the LHCb detector. Their branching fractions are measured with respect to the corresponding Cabibbo-favored decays, from which we obtain B(B ̄0→D +K -π +π -)/B(B ̄0→D +π -π +π -)=(5.9±1.1±0.5) ×10 -2 and B(B -→D0K -π +π -)/B(B -→D0π -π +π -)=(9.4±1.3±0.9) ×10 -2, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The B -→D0K -π +π - decay is particularly interesting, as it can be used in a similar way to B -→D0K - to measure the Cabibbo-Kobayashi- Maskawa phase γ. © 2012 CERN.
