Improved sensitivity to the CKM phase γ through binning phase space in B− → DK−, D → K+π−π−π+ decays

A binning scheme is proposed for D→K+π−π−π+ phase space that will improve the sensitivity of a B−→DK− analysis to the angle γ of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa Unitarity Triangle. The scheme makes use of amplitude models recently reported by the LHCb collaboration. Assuming that a four-bin scheme opt...
