Generically, non-Standard-Model particles contribute to processes with order-one charge-parity (CP) violating phases, as CP is not a fundamental symmetry of nature. The exploration of CP violation becomes therefore a sensitive search for…
Experimental sensitivity to CP violation in charm decay is beginning to approach the interesting regime ($\sim10^{-3}$) in which new physics may be manifest. In the early years of the 21st century, if the technical challenges can be met,…
This work presents the first detailed numerical predictions of CP violation in antitriplet charmed baryon decays. Adopting the flavor $SU(3)_F$ symmetry and the final state re-scattering framework, we relate the CKM-suppressed amplitudes to…
In this talk we report on a study on the mixing of neutral charmed mesons and argue that, at the present stage, a CP violating weak phase of the order of some per mille can not be excluded in the Standard Model. It is shown how some,…
In recent years charm physics has undergone a renaissance, one which has been catalysed by an unexpected and impressive set of experimental results from the $B$-factories, the Tevatron and LHCb. The existence of $D^0\bar{D}{}^0$…
Studies of charm physics with the 2010 LHCb data sample are presented. Time-integrated searches for CP violation in D+ -> K- K+ pi+ and D0 -> K- K+, pi- pi+ are discussed.
The violation of the Charge-Parity (CP) symmetry is a phenomenon described by the Standard Model (SM), however, its predictions for this violation are not enough to explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the visible universe.…
After playing a pivotal role in the birth of the Standard Model in the 70's, the study of charm physics has undergone a revival during the last decade, triggered by a wealth of precision measurements from the charm and $B$ factories, and…
We provide an overview of the current experimental and theoretical status of charm CP violation and discuss recent progress in obtaining a Standard Model prediction for $\Delta a_{\rm CP}^{\rm dir}$ using the framework of light-cone sum…
We review what has been learned about CP violation in the K system. It is natural to hypothesize that the observed CP-violating effects are caused by the Standard Model weak interaction. We describe the stringent future test of this…
To provide focus to my review of charm theory at the B-Physics and CP-Violation conference, I consider theoretical issues related to possible charm studies at B-factories. A few topics of interest to the author are stressed -- rare decays,…
Model-independent techniques for CP violation searches in multi-body charm decays are discussed. Examples of recent analyses from BaBar and LHCb are used to illustrate the experimental challenges involved.
CP asymmetries for neutral charmed meson decays to CP eigenstates are carefully studied. The formulas and numerical results are presented. The impact on experiments is briefly discussed.
Small CPT-violating effects are admissible in several theories beyond the Standard Model of interactions. We analyse experimental data obtained with neutral flavoured meson mixing and place bounds on the scale of such phenomena. The…
Searches for CP violation in the charm sector from the E791, FOCUS, CLEO, BABAR and BELLE experiments are presented. Most analyses consider CP violation in two-body or quasi-two-body decays. Preliminary results from CLEO and FOCUS using…
Pointing out the profound and unique nature of CP violation, I sketch its basic phenomenology, its CKM prescription and QCD technologies relevant for heavy flavour physics. After emphasizing the paradigmatic character of the establishment…
We review recent experimental results on D0 -D0bar mixing and CP violation charm decays. These studies provide complementary constraints on many different extensions of the Standard Model. Observation of CP violation in charm decays at the…
In this talk a number of broad issues are raised about the origins of CP violation and how to test the ideas.
In this proceeding, results of searches for CP violation in charm decays using the full BABAR dataset are discussed. The parameter $A_{CP}$ in the decay $D^\pm\to\KS\pi^\pm$ is determined to be $(-0.39 \pm 0.13 \pm 0.10)%$. Meaurements of…
In the Standard Model \CP violation in charm decays is expected to be very small, at the level of 0.1% or less. A significant excess of \CP violation with respect to the Standard Model predictions would be a signature of new physics. We…
