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…

The LHCb experiment is designed to perform flavour physics measurements at the Large Hadron Collider. Using data collected during the 2010 run, we reconstruct a sample of $H_b\rightarrow h^+h'^-$ decays, where $H_b$ can be either a $B^0$…

In the standard model, direct CP-violating asymmetries for $B^\pm \to \pi^\pm K$ are roughly 2% based on perturbative calculation. Rescattering effects might enhance it to at most (20-25)%. We show that lepton-number-violating couplings in…
