Measurement ofϕ3with Dalitz plot analysis ofB±D(*)K±decay

Abstract
We present a measurement of the unitarity triangle angle ϕ3 using a Dalitz plot analysis of the three-body decay of the neutral D meson from the B±D(*)K± process. The method employs the interference between D0 and D0¯ to extract both the weak and strong phases. We apply this method to a 140fb1 data sample collected by the Belle experiment. The analysis uses the modes B±DK± and B±D*K±, D*Dπ0, where the neutral D meson decays into KSπ+π. We obtain 146 signal candidates for B±DK± and 39 candidates for B±D*K±. From a combined maximum likelihood fit to the B±DK± and B±D*K± modes, we obtain ϕ3=77°+17°19°(stat)±13°(syst)±11°(model). The corresponding 2 standard deviation interval is 26°<ϕ3<126°.
