The tree-level measurement of the CKM $\gamma$ angle is a crucial test of $CP$ violation in the Standard Model (SM). Discrepancies between direct measurements (tree-level decays) and indirect measurements (loop decays) could indicate…

The CDF and LHCb experiments have recently provided two intriguing hints for new physics: a large forward-backward asymmetry in $t\bar t$ production, and a direct CP asymmetry in D decays of order a percent. In both cases, flavor…

We investigate the possibility of observing direct CP violation in self-tagging B-meson decays of the type b -> d J/\psi. The CP asymmetry can be generated due to strong or electromagnetic scattering in the final state, or due to long…

We propose a new method to extract the CP violating weak phase $\gamma$ (the phase of $V_{ub}^*$) in the CKM paradigm of the Standard Model, using $B^- \rightarrow D^0 \pi^- \rightarrow f \pi^-$ and $B^- \rightarrow \bar D^0 \pi^-…

Within the framework of Standard Model, the exclusive decay mode $B\to \pi \gamma \gamma $ is studied. Although the usual short distance contribution is small compared to the similar $B\to K\gamma\gamma$ mode, the process offers the…
