## Measurement of CP observables in B± → D(⁎)K± and B± → D(⁎)π± decays

Measurements of CP observables in B±D()K± and B±D()π± decays are presented, where D() indicates a neutral D or D meson that is an admixture of D()0 and D¯()0states. Decays of the D meson to the Dπ0 and  final states are partially reconstructed without inclusion of the neutral pion or photon, resulting in distinctive shapes in the Bcandidate invariant mass distribution. Decays of the D meson are fully reconstructed in the K±πK+K and π+π final states. The analysis uses a sample of charged B mesons produced in pp collisions collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.0, 1.0 and 2.0 fb1 taken at centre-of-mass energies of s=7, 8 and 13 TeV, respectively. The study of B±DK± and B±Dπ± decays using a partial reconstruction method is the first of its kind, while the measurement of B±DK± and B±Dπ± decays is an update of previous LHCb measurements. The B±DK± results are the most precise to date.
