Abstract

We present a preliminary measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetries in decays of B ⁰ mesons to the final states D ^(*) π using data collected by the BaBar experiment at the PEP-II storage rings. B mesons decaying to D π are fully reconstructed, while events containing B → D ^(*) π are selected using a full or a partial reconstruction technique. These results can be interpreted in terms of a constraint on the angles of the unitarity triangle to set a lower bound on . The Belle experiment at the KEK-B collider is performing the same kind of studies and a preliminary estimation of the achievable error is presented.
