Indirect signs of new physics beyond the Standard Model may be appearing in $B \to K^{(*)}\mu^+\mu^-$ decays. If confirmed, the title question will be of paramount importance in determining the strategy for future colliders. We answer it by…
We analyze possible CP-violating effects induced in the $Z$ decay with hard photon radiation by $\gamma ZZ$ and $\gamma\gamma Z$ anomalous vertices. We estimate the sensibility of future linear collider experiments on these couplings coming…
The standard CKM model can be tested and New Physics detected using only CP-violating phase measurements in B decays. This requires the measurement of a phase factor which is small in the Standard Model, in addition to the usual large…
The recently observed direct CP violation in $B_d \to K^+ \pi^-$ has raised suggestions of possible new physics. A robust test of the standard model vs. new physics is its prediction of equal direct CP violation in $B_s \to K^- \pi^+$…
The anomalies in the measurements of observables involving $b \to s \mu\mu$ decays, namely $R_K$, $R_{K^*}$, $P_5^{\prime}$, and $B_s^\phi$, may be addressed by adding lepton-universality-violating new physics contributions to the effective…
New physics effects in $B$ decays are routinely modeled through operators invariant under the strong and electromagnetic gauge symmetries. Assuming the scale for new physics is well above the electro-weak scale, we further require…
We make a systematic analysis of the effects of new physics in the B decay amplitudes on the CP asymmetries in neutral B decays. Although these are expected to be smaller than new physics effects on the mixing amplitude, they are easier to…
A brief review of CP violation in $K$ and $B$ decays is given. While the observables $\varepsilon$ and Re$(\varepsilon'/\varepsilon)$ describing CP violation in neutral $K$ decays do not allow a powerful test of the CKM mechanism of CP…
A large number of observables can be constructed from differential decay rate based on the polarization of final state while considering decay of a neutral meson $(P^0 \text{ or } \bar P^0)$ to two vector particles. But all of these…
In a recent paper we studied the effect of new-physics operators with different Lorentz structures on the semileptonic $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c \tau \bar{\nu}_{\tau}$ decay. This decay is of interest in light of the $R({D^{(*)}})$ puzzle in…
We examine Lorentz-violating effects that could appear through deviations of the Standard Model gauge couplings WWgamma and WWgammagamma. These new physics effects are explored on the gamma gamma -> WW reaction at the International Linear…
Although recent experimental results in b-->s penguin process seem to be roughly consistent with the standard model predictions, there may be still large possibilities of new physics hiding in this processes. Therefore, here we investigate…
Time-dependent CP asymmetries in $B^0$ decays from interference of $B^0$-$\bar B^0$ mixing and $b\to c\bar cs, u\bar ud, sq\bar q$, and direct asymmetries from interference of $b\to c\bar us$ and $b\to u\bar cs$ are studied, improving…
The lepton universality violating flavor ratios $R_K/R_{K^*}$ indicate new physics either in $b \to s \mu^+ \mu^-$ or in $b \to s e^+ e^-$ or in both. If the new physics is only $b \to s e^+ e^-$ transition, the corresponding new physics…
Recent highlights in CP violation phenomena are reviewed. B-factory results imply that CP-violation phase in the CKM matrix is the dominant contributor to the observed CP violation in K and B-physics. Deviations from the predictions of the…
We show that the study of CP asymmetries in neutral B-meson decays provides a very sensitive probe of flavour-changing neutral currents (FCNC). We introduce two new angles, $\alpha_{SM}$ and $\beta_{SM}$, whose main feature is that they can…

In view of the recent LHCb measurement of Delta A_CP, the difference between the time-integrated CP asymmetries in D --> K+K- and D --> pi+pi- decays, we perform a comparative study of the possible impact of New Physics degrees of freedom…
CP violation plays a privileged role in our quest for new physics beyond the electroweak standard model (SM). In the SM the violation of CP in the weak interactions has a single source: the phase of the quark mixing matrix (the CKM matrix,…
