This proceeding reports a selection of recent experimental results concerning $C\!P$ violation in the sectors of $B^0$ and $B^\pm$ mesons. They were published within the last two years by the Belle, Belle II and LHCb collaborations. The…
We make the simple observation that there exists a universal unitarity triangle for all models, like the SM, the Two Higgs Doublet Models I and II and the MSSM with minimal flavour violation, that do not have any new operators beyond those…
We present recent results on CP violation, and the determination of CKM angle beta, with the decay B0->K+K-K0, with BABAR and Belle detectors.
The CKM and PMNS matrices have been constructed based on the latest measurements, largely free from theoretical inputs as well as likely NP effects in the case of the former. To facilitate the construction of the CKM matrix in the PDG…
The current analysis of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa(CKM) quark mixing matrix uses the standard parametrisation by 3 mixing angles and the CP-violating KM phase. However it would be more convenient to express these mixing angle parameters…
We report on $CP$ violation measurements at Belle and Belle II, focusing on improving the precision of observables sensitive to the Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix parameters. We present recent measurements of the CKM unitarity angle…
In view of the observed strong hierarchy of quark masses, we propose a new description of flavor mixing which is particularly suited for models of quark mass matrices based on flavor symmetries. The necessary and sufficient conditions for…
We report measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries related to the CKM angle $\beta/\phi_1$, using decays of neutral B mesons to charmonium, open charm and in $b\to s$ loop processes. A preliminary measurement of time-dependent CP…
In this article I report on new and updated measurements of the CP-violating parameter beta (phi_1), which is related to the phase of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark-mixing matrix of the electroweak interaction. Over the past few…
Decays of b-hadrons are the ideal place to perform measurements of CP violation. Many decay channels allow to over-constrain the unitarity triangles of the CKM matrix and test the SM hypothesis that a single phase is the origin of all CP…
The determination of the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix is regarded as a challenge for future $B$-physics experiments. In this context, the decays $B^\pm\to \pi^\pm K$ and $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$, which were…
In this article we will review recent BABAR measurements of Unitarity Triangle angle beta in B meson decays to charm and charmonium.
In the Standard Model of elementary particles, quark-mixing is expressed in terms of a 3 x 3 unitary matrix V, the so called Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. Significant unitarity checks are so far possible for the first row of this…
Assuming that the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism gives the dominant contribution to CP violation at low energies, we propose a novel way of testing the flavour sector of the Standard Model which has the potencial for discovering New Physics.…
Recent experimental results on CP violation in the study of B meson decays are reviewed. The emphasis is put on the recent measurements of the CP parameter sin2beta by the BABAR and BELLE experiments at asymmetric B factories, which…
Motivated by the recently improved results from the Fermilab Lattice and MILC Collaborations on the hadronic matrix elements entering $\Delta M_{s,d}$ in $B_{s,d}^0-\bar B_{s,d}^0$ mixing, we determine the Universal Unitarity Triangle (UUT)…
Unitarity along with precision measurements of sin2\beta, V_{us} and V_{cb} allows one to find a lower bound V_{ub}\geq 0.0035 which, on using the recently measured angle \alpha of the unitarity triangle, translates to V_{ub}= 0.0035\pm…
Brief overview of the present status on mixing and CP violation in kaons and B mesons is given by means of the unitarity triangle. Theoretical predictions on epsilon'/epsilon are confronted with experimental results. The prospects of…
In this letter, using a rephasing invariant formula $\delta = \arg [ { V_{ud} V_{us} V_{c b} V_{tb} / V_{ub} \det V_{\rm CKM} }]$, we evaluate the CP phase $\delta$ of the CKM matrix $V_{\rm CKM}$ perturbatively for small quark mixing…
Several authors have proposed methods to measure the phase $\gamma$ of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) unitarity triangle using decays of the type $B\to DK$. We show how to remove uncertainties from these measurements and increase their…
