We discuss several aspects of direct CP asymmetries in B decays, which are very useful in spite of hadronic uncertainties in asymmetry calculations. 1) Asymmetries in decays to $D^{(*)}K^{(*)}$, $\pi^+\pi^-, \rho^+\rho^-$, providing…
The latest measurements of the individual time-integrated CP asymmetry in the Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^0\rightarrow hh$ decays are presented. The results are based on $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3…
We make a further study of $CP$ asymmetries in the pure penguin-induced decay modes $B^{-}_{u}\rightarrow K^{(*)0} + K^{(*)-}$ and $B^{-}_{u} \rightarrow \bar{K}^{(*)0} + (\pi^{-}, \rho^{-}, a^{-}_{1})$ by using the two-loop…

We search for direct CP violation in flavor specific B -> K pi decays by measuring the rate asymmetry between charge conjugate modes. The search is performed on a data sample of 11.1 million B B bar events recorded on the Upsilon(4S)…
We have searched for CP violation in the decays $D^0\rightarrow K^0_S P^0$ where $P^0$ denotes a neutral pseudo-scalar meson which is either a $\pi^0$, $\eta$, or $\eta'$ using KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to…
The singly Cabibbo suppressed (SCS) decays $D\to \pi a_0$, with $a_0\equiv a_0(980)$, have been measured with the branching-fraction ratios $r^{+/-}_{\rm ex}\equiv {\cal B}(D^0\to\pi^- a_0^+)/{\cal B}(D^0\to\pi^+ a_0^-)=7.5^{+2.5}_{-0.8}\pm…
We calculate the direct CP violating asymmetry parameter, $a_{CP}$, for $B \to \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi$ and $B \to \pi^{+} \pi^{-} K$ decays, in the case where $\rho^0-\omega$ mixing effects are taken into account. We find that the direct CP…
We present a measurement of the direct $CP$-violating charge asymmetry in $D_s^\pm \to \phi \pi^{\pm}$ decays where the $\phi$ meson decays to $K^+K^-$, using the full Run II data set with an integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb$^{-1}$ of…
We describe several measurements using the decays D0->K+K- and pi+pi-. We find the ratio of partial widths, Gamma(D0->K+K-)/Gamma(D0->pi+pi-), to be 2.96+/-0.16+/-0.15, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. We…
CP violation in K and B decays is reviewed in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. In K decays, one is seeking first evidence for CP violation in direct $K\to \pi\pi$ decays. This would not give a precise quantitative test for the…
Measurements of CP asymmetries in hadron decays integrated over time provide access to direct CP violation, which arises from differences between the amplitudes of CP-conjugate decay processes. These proceedings present an overview of…
The likelihood of a sizable, direct CP-violating asymmetry in the decays $B^\mp\to K^\mp\eta$, is calculated within the framework of the model which originally predicted a sizeable asymmetry in $\pi^\mp\eta(\eta')$. It is shown in a…
A variety of CP violating asymmetries in $B^0$ decays is predicted in the Standard Model in terms of CKM (Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa) complex phases. These phases can also be determined from rate measurements of certain $B^+$ and $B^-$…
Recent CP asymmetry measurements in tree-dominated processes, $B^0\to \pi^+\pi^-, \rho^+\rho^-, \rho^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}, B^+\to DK^+$, and in penguin-dominated decays, $B \to \pi^0 K_S, \eta' K_S, \phi K_S$, are interpreted in the framework of…
