Abstract
If the weak phase of mixing () is found to be significantly different from zero, this is a clear signal of new physics (NP). However, if such a signal is found, we would like an unambiguous determination of in order to ascertain which NP models could be responsible. In addition, in the presence of NP, the width difference between the two mass eigenstates can be positive or negative, and ideally this sign ambiguity should be resolved experimentally. Finally, in order to see if the NP is contributing to in addition to , the precise measurement of is crucial. In this paper, we consider several different methods of measuring using penguin-free two- and three-body decays with and transitions. We find that the most promising of these is a time-dependent Dalitz-plot analysis of . With this decay, the unambiguous measurements of and are possible, and the weak phase can also be extracted.
