The starting point of these lectures is an introduction to the weak interactions of quarks and the Standard-Model description of CP violation, where the key element is the Cabibbo--Kobayashi--Maskawa matrix and the corresponding unitarity…
CP violation in the field of $B$ physics is a crucial topic for exploring the quark sector and search for New Physics, both for theorists and experimentalists. CP violation manifests itself in various ways and in this presentation, we will…
We review some recent results on b decays relevant to future CP violation studies. In particular, some new data on rare hadronic B decays will be presented, as well as inclusive searches for evidence for gluonic penguins and first hints of…
Exploiting the full Run II data sample collected by the CDF trigger on displaced vertices, we present a search for CP violation in neutral D mesons decays to hadronic final states. We use the strong D^{*+}\to D^{0}\pi^{+} (and c.c.) decay…
LHCb is a dedicated heavy flavour physics precision experiment at the LHC searching for New Physics (NP) beyond the Standard Model (SM) through the study of very rare decays of beauty and charm-flavoured hadrons and precision measurements…
Measurements of mixing and $CP$ violation in $b$-hadron decays are great probes to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. A selection of recent results based upon $3.0\ \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of LHCb data are presented. These are the…
These lectures describe CP violation and rare decays of K and B mesons and consist of ten chapters: i) Grand view of the field including CKM matrix and the unitarity triangle, ii) General aspects of the theoretical framework, iii)…
Various developing topics in CP violation are reviewed. There are many theoretical reasons to hope that the CKM paradigm may be incomplete. It is surely too soon to be claiming new physics in \epsilon^\prime/\epsilon or in D^0-\bar D^0…
CP violation is observed to date only in K^0 decays and is parameterizable by a single quantity epsilon. Because it is one of the least understood phenomena in the Standard Model and holds a clue to baryogenesis, it must be investigated…
Experimental data on rare $B$-meson decays indicate deviations from Standard Model predictions. In studies of these decays, possible new sources of CP violation are often neglected. We discuss CP violation in the rare $B$-meson decays $B\to…
The present status of CP violation in decays of neutral kaons is reviewed. In addition selected rare decays of both K and B mesons are discussed. The emphasis is in particular on observables that can be reliably calculated and thus offer…
We present recent LHCb results and future prospects for CP violation and mixing measurements in multi-body charm decays. The complex amplitude structure of multi-body decays provides unique sensitivity to CP violation localised in certain…
Recent measurements of the time-dependent CP violation are presented. The decays of $B_{s}^{0}$ mesons to $J/\psi\,K^+ K^-$ and $J/\psi\,\pi^+ \pi^-$ final states are used to measure CP-violating parameters with proton-proton collision…
The LHCb collaboration has recently reported the first observation of CP violation in the penguin-dominated $B^0_s\to K^-K^+$ decay and further new measurements, indicating differences between the direct CP asymmetries of both the $B^0_s\to…
The recent observation of B_d -> pi^0 pi^0 at the B factories with a surprisingly large branching ratio represents a challenge for theory, and complements the amazingly small B_d -> pi^+ pi^- rate. We point out that all puzzling B -> pi pi…
We review the information on the CKM matrix elements, unitarity triangle and CP-violating phases $\alpha, \beta$ and $\gamma$ in the standard model which will be measured in the forthcoming experiments at B factories, HERA-B and hadron…
We use the perturbative QCD methods of Lepage and Brodsky to calculate the rate for B-bar_s -> rho K_s, with an eye toward the CP violating unitarity triangle angle gamma. We show that, although the penguins are large, there are regions of…
Ascribing the large SU(3) violations in the Cabibbo forbidden decays of neutral D mesons to the final state interactions, one gets large strong phase differences, necessary for substantial direct CP violation. While the absolute value of…
We review CP violation in various extensions of the electroweak sector of the Standard Model. A particular emphasis is put on supersymmetric models. We describe the two CP problems of supersymmetry, concerning $d_N$ and $\epsilon_K$. We…
This review of CP violation focuses on the status of the subject and its likely future development through experiments in the Kaon system and with B-decays. Although present observations of CP violation are perfectly consistent with the CKM…
