This is a quick review of CP non-conservation in $B$ physics. Several methods are described for testing the Kobayashi-Maskawa single phase origin of CP violation in B decays, pointing out some limitations due to hadronic uncertainties. A…

The $C\!P$ asymmetry and branching fraction of the CKM-suppressed decay $B^+\!\to J\mskip -3mu/\mskip -2mu\psi\,\pi^+$ are precisely measured relative to the favoured decay $B^+\!\to J\mskip -3mu/\mskip -2mu\psi\,K^+$, using a sample of…

LHCb, CDF and most recently Belle have observed a large difference between direct CP asymmetries in $D^0\to K^+K^-$ and $D^0\to\pi^+\pi^-$. We use the measured value of $\Delta A_{CP}$ to constrain the magnitude and strong phase of a…

The $B\to\pi\pi,\pi K$ system offers a powerful laboratory to probe strong and weak interactions. Using the isospin symmetry, we determine hadronic $B\to\pi\pi$ parameters from data where new measurements of direct CP violation in…

We review the direct CP and T violation in the three-body baryonic B decays in the standard model. In particular, we emphasize that the direct CP violating asymmetry in $B^\pm\to p\bar p K^{*\pm}$ is around 22% and the direct $T$ violating…

We study direct CP violating asymmetries (CPAs) in the two-body $\Lambda_b$ decays of $\Lambda_b\to pM(V)$ with $M(V)=K^-(K^{*-})$ and $\pi^-(\rho^-)$ based on the generalized factorization method. After simultaneously explaining the…

We review the present status of CP violation in the standard model. Subsequently we make an excursion in the future in order to see what we could expect in this field in this and the next decade. We present various strategies for the…

We study CP asymmetries in rare B decays within supersymmetry with a U(2)^3 flavour symmetry, motivated by the SUSY flavour and CP problems, the hierarchies in the Yukawa couplings and the absence so far of any direct evidence for SUSY.…

Recently, the LHCb and CDF collaborations reported a surprisingly large difference between the direct CP asymmetries, Delta A_CP, in the D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decay modes. An interesting question is whether this measurement can be…

We search for direct CP violation in flavor specific B -> K pi decays by measuring the rate asymmetry between charge conjugate modes. The search is performed on a data sample of 11.1 million B B bar events recorded on the Upsilon(4S)…

Time-dependent $CP$ asymmetries in the decay rates of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^0\rightarrow K^-K^+$ and $D^0\rightarrow \pi^-\pi^+$ are measured in $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0…

It is shown that in the approximation of $|\frac{q}{p}|$=1 the CP violation in $B^0_{d,s} \to l^+ l^-$ decays vanishes in SM. In a 2HDM with CP violating phases and MSSM the CP asymmetries depend on the parameters of models and can be as…

The status of CP violation and the CKM matrix is reviewed. Direct CP violation in B decay has been established and the measurement of sin(2beta) in \psi K modes reached 5% accuracy. I discuss the implications of these, and of the possible…

Inspired by the unexpectedly large difference between the CP violation of $D$ decays into $K^+K^-$ and $\pi^+\pi^-$, we explore the impact on the extraction of $\gamma$ via the $B\to DK$ process with the $D$ meson reconstructed in the…

We discuss a potential discrepancy in an approximate relation among $B \to K \pi$ rates which, with increased statistical significance, would imply new physics in $\Delta I=1$ transitions. An approximate relation between CP-violating rate…

Since the discovery of CP violation more than 5 decades ago, this phenomenon is still attracting a lot of interest. Among the many fascinating aspects of this subject, this review is dedicated to direct CP violation in non-leptonic decays.…

CP asymmetries in B_d \to D^+D^-, D^{*+}D^-, D^+D^{*-} and D^{*+}D^{*-} decays are investigated with the help of the factorization approximation and isospin relations. We find that the direct CP violation is governed only by the…

In this proceedings we present a measurement of mixing, and searches for direct and indirect CP asymmetries in the charm sector using the full \babar data sample of $469 \invfb$. Searches for direct CP asymmetries have been performed in the…

We have investigated the effects of unparticles in decays $B \to l \nu$. It is found that the direct CP violation in the decays, which is zero in SM, can show up due to the CP conserving phase intrinsic in unparticle physics. For $l=\tau$,…

The decay $B^{\pm} \to K^0_{\mathrm{S}} \pi^{\pm}$, with a $CP$ asymmetry expected to be close to zero in the Standard Model, is theoretically clean and sensitive to potential new physics. An analysis of the decays $B^{\pm} \to…
