In the model III 2HDM there are new CP violating phases which would affect the $B_{d,s}^0 - \bar{B}_{d,s}^0$ mixing. In this paper, we calculate the new physics contributions to the neutral B meson mass splitting $\Delta M_{B_q}$ (q=d, s)…

Within the standard electroweak model we carry out an instructive analysis of the effect of $K^{0}-\bar{K}^{0}$ mixing on $CP$ asymmetries in some weak decay modes of $D^{\pm}$ and $\stackrel{(-)}{B}$$^{0}_{d}$ mesons. We point out that a…

We report a study of T and CP violation in $B^0$-$\bar B^0$ mixing using an inclusive dilepton sample collected by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II $B$ Factory. The asymmetry between $\ell^+\ell^+$ and $\ell^-\ell^-$ allows us to compare…

We investigate the maximum size of CP violating effects in $D$-mixing within the Standard Model (SM), using Heavy Quark Expansion (HQE) as theoretical working tool. For this purpose we determine the leading HQE contributions and also…

We study the flavor physics implications of baryogenesis in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Enhanced $B-\bar B$ mixing and $b \to s \gamma$ rates are generic to all scenarios. Depending on the origin of the CP violating phase…

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…

A measurement of $CP$-violating observables associated with the interference of $B^0\to D^0 K^{*}(892)^0$ and $B^0\to \bar{D}^0 K^*(892)^0$ decay amplitudes is performed in the $D^0 \to K^{\mp}\pi^{\pm}(\pi^+\pi^-),$ $D^0 \to…

We present the new and updated $BABAR$ measurements of CP-violation studies for many $b\to s $ penguin decay modes. We report the first observation of mixing-induced CP-violation in $B^0 \to \eta ^{'} K^0$ with a significance (including…

In this talk I begin with some general discussion of the history of CP violation, then move on to aspects of the aspon model including the production of new particles at LHC, implications for B decay, generalized Cabibbo mixing and a…

We report on recent measurements of the $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing and $CP$ violation parameters performed by the Belle experiment. The evidence for the mixing phenomena in the system of neutral $D$ mesons, arising in the study of $D^0\to…

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 $D^0\bar{D}{}^0$…

CP violation in K and B decays is reviewed in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. In K decays, one is seeking first evidence for CP violation in direct $K\to \pi\pi$ decays. This would not give a precise quantitative test for the…

Recent results on the mixing-induced CP asymmetries of B \to \phi K^0 and B \to \eta' K_S measured at B-factories appear to indicate discrepancies from the Standard Model expectation. Explanation of this possible anomaly is given in the…

Violations of $ CPT$ symmetry and Lorentz invariance are searched for by studying interference effects in $ B^0$ mixing and in $ B^0_s$ mixing. Samples of $ B^0\to J/\psi K^0_{\mathrm{S}}$ and $ B^0_s\to J/\psi K^+ K^-$ decays are recorded…

We report on a measurement of D0-D0bar mixing and a search for CP violation in the D0->K+K-, pi+pi- and K+-pi-+ channels. We use D0's coming from D*+ decays, so that the flavour of the D0 at production is tagged by the charge of the pion…

I give an introduction to the theory of meson-antimeson mixing, aiming at students who plan to work at a flavour physics experiment or intend to do associated theoretical studies. I derive the formulae for the time evolution of a neutral…

We report measurements of CP violation parameters in $B^0 \to K^0 \pi^0$ decays based on a data sample of $657 \times 10^6 B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+ e^-$ asymmetric-energy collider. We use $B^0 \to…

We investigate the direct $CP$ violation for the decay process of $\bar{B}_{s}\rightarrow P(V)\pi^{0}$ (P,V refer to the pseudoscalar meson and vector meson, respectively) via isospin symmetry breaking effects from the $\pi^{0}-\eta-\eta'$…

We analyze the extraction of weak phases from CP violation in $B\to\pi^+\pi^-$ decays. We propose to determine the unitarity triangle $(\bar\rho,\bar\eta)$ by combining the information on mixing induced CP violation in $B\to\pi^+\pi^-$,…

We investigate the possibility of observing the direct CP violation in the decay modes $B^- \to D^0 D_s^-$ and $D^0 D^-$ within the Standard Model. Including the contributions arising from the tree, annihilation, QCD as well as electroweak…
