Abstract

Measurements of CPCP-violating observables in BB meson decays can be used to determine the angles of the Unitarity Triangle and hence probe for manifestations of New Physics beyond the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa Standard Model paradigm. Of particular interest are precise measurements of the angles γ\gamma and β\beta. Also of great importance are studies of CPCP-violation involving Bs0B_s^0 mesons, in particular the phase ϕs\phi_s, which is a golden observable in flavour physics at the LHC. Complementary to these studies is the continuing search for direct and indirect CPCP-violation in the charm system, where the experimental precision is now at the 10310^{-3} level. I will present new and recent results in these topics, and in CPCP-violation searches in baryon decays, with specific emphasis on the measurement programme at the LHC.
