If CP violation in the decays of neutral kaons is due to phases in the weak couplings of quarks, as encoded in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix, there are many other experimental consequences. Notable among these are CP-violating…
Our knowledge of quark-flavor physics and CP violation increased tremendously over the past five years. It is confirmed that the Standard Model correctly describes the dominant parts of the observed CP-violating and flavor-changing…
In this presentation, I review the status of selected Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements and their role in the Unitarity Triangle (UT). Since this conference concluded, many new results have been finalized and are included in…
We report the latest results on CP violation measurements and the tantalizing hints of potential new physics effects obtained at the B factories.
After listing basic properties of the Standard Model (SM) that play the crucial role in the field of flavour and CP violation, we discuss the following topics: 1) CKM matrix and the unitarity triangle. 2) Theoretical framework in a…
Phenomenological issues of the CP violation in the quark sector of the Standard Model are discussed. We consider quark mixing in the SM, standard and Wolfenstein parametrization of the $CKM$ mixing matrix and unitarity triangle. We discuss…
We review the subject of CP violation in $B$ decays in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. We describe some of the present most promising ways of testing the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) origin of CP violation through a…
We systematically investigate the possibility of finding CP/T violation in the $\tau$ sector at Tau-Charm Factory. CP/T violation may occur at $\tau$ pair production process, expressed as electric dipole moment, and at $tau$ decay…
This article summarises measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries in decays of neutral B mesons to charm final states using data collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B-factory. All results are preliminary…
Recent results on inclusive and exclusive semileptonic B decays from B-factories are presented. The impact of these measurements on the determination of the CKM matrix elements |Vub| and |Vcb| is discussed.
Planned as a review of CPV in B-mesons which covered recent B-factories results these lectures appeared to be a bit wider. It is not natural to be limited by direct CPV and that in mixing in B-mesons and not to speak about the analogous…
The CKM matrix describing quark mixing with three generations can be parameterized by three mixing angles and one CP violating phase. In most of the parameterizations, the CP violating phase chosen is not a directly measurable quantity and…
The decay modes $B$ to $\pi\pi$, $\psi K_S$, $K^- D$, $\pi K$ and $\eta K$ are promising channels to study the unitarity triangle of the CP violating CKM matrix. In this paper I study the consequences of these measurements in the Weinberg…
We report recent results on CP violation measurements from the two B-factory experiments, Belle and BaBar.
I review some of the salient issues connected to CP-violation and weak decays. In particular, I focus on recent and forthcoming tests of the CKM model and discuss the accuracy one can expect to achieve in B-decays for the parameters of this…
The unitarity of the CKM matrix is examined in the light of the latest available accurate data. The analysis shows that for the elements in the first row, there are two types of experimental measurements leading to different results for the…
The CKM paradigm has been proven to be successful in explaining the flavour structure of the standard model and the non-trivial imaginary phase of the CKM matrix is the only know source of CP-violation. B-meson decays allow us to precisely…
