We calculate the CP-averaged branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries of a number of two-body charmless hadronic decays $\bar{B_s^0} \to PP, PV, VV$ in the perturbative QCD (pQCD) approach to leading order in $\alpha_s$ (here $P$ and…

Differences in the behaviour of matter and antimatter have been observed in $K$ and $B$ meson decays, but not yet in any baryon decay. Such differences are associated with the non-invariance of fundamental interactions under the combined…

The study of $C\!P$ violation in decays of beauty- and charm-hadrons provides a fundamental test of the predictions of the Standard Model (SM) and represents a sensitive probe to search for physics effects that cannot be described within…
