The Standard Model (SM) predicts that $\Delta A_{\rm CP}$, the difference between the direct CP asymmetries for the modes $B^+\to \pi^0 K^+$ and $B^0\to \pi^- K^+$ that are related by weak isospin, should be close to zero. There has been a…

Measurements of the time-dependent CP asymmetry in the decay $B^0_d (t) \to \pi^+ \pi^-$ and its charge conjugate by the BELLE and BABAR collaborations currently yield $C_{\pi \pi}^{+-} = -0.46 \pm 0.13$ and $S_{\pi \pi}^{+-} = -0.74 \pm…

I first discuss the phenomenology of a^q_fs (q=d,s), which is the CP asymmetry in flavour-specific B_q decays such as B_d -> X l^+ nu-bar_l or B_s -> D_s^- pi^+. a^q_fs can be obtained from the time evolution of any untagged B_q decay. Then…
Effects are investigated of CP symmetry violation in the decay of a scalar particle X (the Higgs boson) into two off-mass-shell Z bosons both decaying into a fermion-antifermion pair, $X \to Z_1^* \, Z_2^* \to f_1 \bar{f_1} \, f_2…
A study of $\mathit{\Lambda}_b^0$ and $\mathit{\Xi}_b^0$ baryon decays to the final states $pK_{\mathrm S}^0\pi^-$ and $pK_{\mathrm S}^0K^-$ is performed using $pp$ collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an…
We investigate the influence of the fourth generation of quarks on the branching ratio, the CP-asymmetry and the polarization asymmetries in $B \rar \rho \ell^+ \ell^-$ decay. Taking $|V_{t'd}V_{t'b}|\sim 0.001$ with phase about $10^\circ$,…
We consider $CP$-violating $Z'$ models to account for the anomalies in $b \to s \ell \ell$ decays. Using the updated constraints from lepton flavor universality (LFU) violating ratios, $b \to s \mu \mu $ $CP$-conserving and $CP$-violating…
The time-dependent CP asymmetry in exclusive B^0(t) -> K^{*0}\gamma decays has been proposed as a probe of new physics in B decays. Recently, this method was extended to radiative decays into multibody hadronic final states such as B^0(t)->…
We investigate $B \to K_0^*(1430) K^*$ decays in the perturbative QCD(pQCD) factorization approach, where $B$ denotes $B_u$, $B_d$ and $B_s$ meson respectively, and the scalar $K_0^*(1430)$ is considered as a meson based on the model of…

The size of the direct CP asymmetry generated during the weak decay of hadrons is attributed to the weak phase and some strong phases. The weak phase comes from the CKM matrix and a strong phase may result from the resonance effect which is…
