CP violation in non-leptonic three-body B decays

Three-body decays, which form a large part of the B meson branching fraction, contain much more information than two-body decays, because of their non-trivial kinematic structure. Recently, progress was made to study three-body decays using a QCD factorization framework. We use this framework to study CP violation in three-body decays. Experimental data shows a rich CP structure with large local CP asymmetries. We study if these measured CP patterns can be explained using our factorization framework.
