Motivated by the possibility of ${\cal S}_{\phi K_S}<0$, we study the implications for $B_s$ meson system. In a specific model that realizes ${\cal S}_{\phi K_S}<0$ with large $s$-$b$ mixing, right-handed dynamics and a new CP phase, we…
We present a preliminary measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B0 --> K*0 (K_S0 pi0) gamma decays based on 431 x 10^6 Upsilon(4S) --> BBbar decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider…
We report on a search for the charmless decays $B^{+} \to\phi\pi^{+}$ and $B^{0} \to\phi \pi^{0}$ that are strongly suppressed in the Standard Model. The analysis is based on a data sample of $657 \times 10^6$ $B \bar{B}$ pairs collected at…
We investigate to what extent the recently measured value for a non-vanishing direct CP asymmetry in D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decays can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) or extensions with a constrained flavour sector, for…
Using a sample of $1.31\times10^9$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the electron-positron collider BEPCII, we analyse the full $J/\psi \to$ $\Xi^-\overline{\Xi}^+$, $\Xi^-\to \Lambda \pi^-$, $\Lambda\to p\pi^-$,…
We show that, contrary to the flavour mixing amplitude q/p, both Re(epsilon) and Im(epsilon) are observable quantities, where epsilon is the phase- convention-independent CP mixing. We consider semileptonic B_d decays from a CP tag and…
Determination of the characteristic CP-violating quantity \sin (2\beta) should be the central goal of a B-meson factory in its first-round experiments. Except the gold-plated channels B_d\to \psi K_S and \psi K_L, three other types of B_d…
Complex flavour couplings (off-diagonal mass terms) in the squark sector of supersymmetric theories may drastically alter both the rate and the CP-violating asymmetry of certain B-meson decays. We consider the effects of couplings that…
We report the analysis of time-dependent CP violation in neutral B meson system using a data sample corresponding to 140fb-1 collected by Belle detector and KEKB e+e- collider. One B meson decaying into CP eigenstate is fully reconstructed…
We consider the possibility of studying the CP properties of various B(s) decays at an electro-positron machine tuned to the Upsilon(5s). Since decay modes of the B(s) with definite CP are relatively rare, we suggest that the use of more…
Measurements of the strong-phase difference between $D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ are performed in bins of phase space. The study exploits a sample of quantum-correlated $D\bar{D}$ mesons collected by the BESIII experiment in…
We perform a comprehensive SU(3)-flavor analysis of charmed mesons decaying to two pseudoscalar SU(3)-octet mesons. Taking into account SU(3)-breaking effects induced by the splitting of the quark masses, m_s != m_{u,d}, we find that…
We have searched for CP-violating asymmetries in neutral charm meson decays in 13.7 fb^-1 of e^+e^- collision data at sqrt{s} = 10.6 GeV with the CLEO detector. The measured asymmetries in the rate of D0 and D0bar decays to K0sPi0, Pi0Pi0…

We present the preliminary measurement of CP-violating asymmetries in B0->(rhopi)0->pi+pi-pi0 decays using a time-dependent Dalitz plot analysis. The results are obtained from a data sample of 213 million Y(4S)->BB-bar decays, collected by…
We (re)examine CP violation in the decays B_d -> D K_s, where D represents D^0, D(bar), or one of their excited states. The quantity $\sin^2(2\beta + \gamma)$ can be extracted from the time-dependent rates for $B_d(t) -> {\bar D}^{**0} K_s$…
The B^0 -> J/\psi K_{S,L} channels are outstanding probes of CP violation. We have a detailed look at the associated Standard-Model uncertainties, which are related to doubly Cabibbo-suppressed penguin contributions, and point out that…
