Abstract
We reconstruct B[superscript ±]→DK[superscript ±] decays in a data sample collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron collider corresponding to 1  fb[superscript -1] of integrated luminosity. We select decay modes where the D meson decays to either K-π+ (flavor eigenstate) or K[superscript -]K[superscript +], π[superscript -]π[superscript +] (CP-even eigenstates), and measure the direct CP asymmetry A[subscript CP+]=0.39±0.17(stat)±0.04(syst), and the double ratio of CP-even to flavor eigenstate branching fractions R[subscript CP+]=1.30±0.24(stat)±0.12(syst). These measurements will improve the determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle γ. They are performed here for the first time using data from hadron collisions.
