AB - A model-independent determination of the CKM angle γ is presented, using the B<sup>±</sup> → [K<sup>+</sup>K<sup>−</sup>π<sup>+</sup>π<sup>−</sup>]<inf>D</inf>h<sup>±</sup> and B<sup>±</sup> → [π<sup>+</sup>π<sup>−</sup>π<sup>+</sup>π<sup>−</sup>]<inf>D</inf>h<sup>±</sup> decays, with h = K, π. This measurement is the first phase-space binned study of these decay modes, and uses a sample of proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb<sup>−1</sup>. The phase-space bins are optimised for sensitivity to γ, and in each bin external inputs from the BESIII experiment are used to constrain the charm strong-phase parameters. The result of this binned analysis is γ=53.9−8.9+9.5°, where the uncertainty includes both statistical and systematic contributions. Furthermore, when combining with existing phase-space integrated measurements of the same decay modes, a value of γ=52.6−6.4+8.5° is obtained, which is one of the most precise determinations of γ to date.
