We present improved measurements of CP-violation parameters in the decays $B^0 \to \pi^+ \pi^-$, $B^0 \to K^+ \pi^-$, and $B^0 \to \pi^0 \pi^0$, and of the branching fractions for $B^0 \to \pi^0 \pi^0$ and $B^0 \to K^0 \pi^0$. The results…
We report measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries related to the CKM angle $\beta/\phi_1$, using decays of neutral B mesons to charmonium, open charm and in $b\to s$ loop processes. A preliminary measurement of time-dependent CP…
We present preliminary measurements of branching fractions and CP-asymmetry parameters in two- and three-body charmless hadronic B decays. The available data sample consists of 227 million Upsilon(4S) B decays collected with the BABAR…
The search for rare B decays and direct CP violation at BABAR is described. The following measurements (based on integrated luminosities ranging from 56.4 to 81.9fb-1) are summarized: the inclusive branching fractions and direct CP…
Using about 23M $B \bar B$ events collected in 1999-2000 with the BABAR detector, we report on the decays $B \to D^{(*)}\bar D^{(*)}K$ and $B^0 \to D^{*+}D^{*-}$. The branching fractions of the low background decay modes $B \to D^{(*)}\bar…
Since the discovery of CP violation more than 5 decades ago, this phenomenon is still attracting a lot of interest. Among the many fascinating aspects of this subject, this review is dedicated to direct CP violation in non-leptonic decays.…
We analyze patterns from CP-violating new physics (NP) in hadronic and semileptonic rare charm $\vert \Delta c \vert=\vert \Delta u\vert=1$ transitions. Observation of direct CP-violation in hadronic decays, as in $\Delta A_{\text{CP}}$,…
A review of charm semileptonic decays results obtained at B factories is presented. It focuses on form factors measurements in $D^0\to K^- \ell^+ \nu$, $D^0\to \pi^- \ell^+ \nu$, $D_s^+ \to K^+K^- e^+\nu_e$, and $D^+ \to K^-\pi^+ e^+\nu_e$.…
We present the selected recent charm results at Belle: (1) the $CP$ asymmetries and branching fractions for the decays of charm mesons, i.e. $D^{0}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\eta,\,K^{+}K^{-}\eta$ and $D^{0}\to\phi\eta$; $D_{s}^{+}\to…
A study of charm mixing and CP violation in $D^0\to K^\pm\pi^\mp\pi^\pm\pi^\mp$ decays is performed using data collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions from 2015 to 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of…
We report on recent measurements, from the BaBar and Belle experiments, of B-meson decays to purely hadronic final states that do not contain charm. The studies are based on large samples of BBbar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) or…
BaBar has found $A_{\rm CP}(\tau^- \to \nu K_S\pi^- [\geq \pi^0]) = (-0.36 \pm 0.23 \pm 0.11)%$ with 2.8 $\sigma$ difference with SM prediction $A_{\rm CP}(\tau^- \to \nu K_S\pi^-) = (0.36 \pm 0.01)%$ based on $K^0 - \bar K^0$ oscillation.…

In this talk, I review the various measurements that have been made over the years of CP-violating observables in $B$ decays. These include indirect CP asymmetries, direct CP asymmetries, and triple products. All are discussed in the…
We present measurements of branching fractions and CP asymmetries of several B- -> D(*)0 K(*)- decays, with the D(*)0 decaying to CP-even, CP-odd, and flavor eigenstates, that can constrain the CP angle gamma as well as the amplitude ratio…
We report recent results on CP violation measurements from the two B-factory experiments, Belle and BaBar.
To write a review on charm decays is not an easy task because of the large amount (fortunately!) of experimental results in the recent years. I was forced to make a selection of topics. I am going to discuss with the eyes of an…
CP violation is an excellent tool for probing flavor dynamics as we learnt first with $K_L \to 2 \pi$ and later also with the weak decays of beauty mesons. LHCb 2019 data have shown CP violation for the first time in $D^0\to K^-K^+$ vs.…
The charm quark offers interesting opportunities to cross-check the mechanism of CP violation precisely tested in the strange and beauty sectors. In this paper, we exploit the angular and quantum correlations in the D\bar{D} pairs produced…
The discovery of CP violation in charm sector in 2019 was a milestone in searches performed over last decades. The $\Delta A_{CP}$ measured by LHCb is at the upper end of the Standard Model predictions. This triggers many interpretations…
