The knowledge of charm production asymmetries is an important prerequisite for many of the possible searches for CP violation in charm. Measurements of these asymmetries at hadron colliders can also help to improve our understanding of QCD.…
Our knowledge of flavour dynamics has undergone a `quantum jump' since just before the turn of the millenium: direct \cp violation has been firmly {\em established} in $K_L \to \pi \pi$ decays in 1999; the first \cp asymmetry outside $K_L$…
The first part of this talk reviews recent developments in flavor physics that can be made without detailed understanding of hadronic physics, driven by the data. The error of sin(2beta) has shrunk below 5%, and the measurements of alpha…
The importance of charm decays in the context of flavor is motivated. A theory overview on recent developments in leptonic and semileptonic decays, hadronic two-body decays, and rare decays is presented. Standard Model (SM) predictions as…
We review theoretical and experimental results on CP violation summarizing the discussions in the working group on CP violation at the UK phenomenology workshop 2000 in Durham.
With the first evidence of direct CP violation in $D^0 \to K^+K^-/\pi^+\pi^-$ there is a strong reason to probe CP asymmetries in charm baryons in three-body final states $\Lambda_c \to p\pi^+\pi^-/pK^+K^-$ & $\Lambda_c \to pK^+\pi^-$ with…
Recent measurements of CP violating asymmetries have led to a significant progress in our understanding of CP violation. The implications of the experimental results for the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism and for new physics are explained.
Time-dependent studies of inclusive charm decays to multibody self-conjugate final states can be used to determine the indirect $CP$-violating observable $A_\Gamma$ and the mixing observable $y_{CP}$, provided that the fractional $CP$-even…
The "10$^{\rm th}$ International Workshop on the CKM Unitary Triangle" took place at the University of Heidelberg on September 17$^{\rm th}$-21$^{\rm st}$, 2018. In this write-up, we summarize the material discussed at the workshop by the…
This lecture provides a general overview of CP violation, emphasizing CP violation in flavour-violating interactions, such as due to the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism.
First evidence for $C P$ violation in two-body singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays of $D^0$ mesons reported by LHCb has recently aroused great interest in charm physics. In this document the latest measurements of $C P$ violation in the charm…
An introductory overview of the Standard Model description of flavour is presented. The main emphasis is put on present tests of the quark-mixing matrix structure and the phenomenological determination of its parameters. Special attention…
CP-violating effects in decays of B mesons offer a wide spectrum of probes for testing the phase structure of the quark-flavour sector of the Standard Model. After a brief discussion of the picture emerging from the current LHC data, the…
The last three years have seen a phase transition in our knowledge about CP violation: (i) Direct CP violation has been established in $K_L \to \pi \pi$. (ii) The first CP violation outside $K_L$ decays has been observed in $B_d \to \psi…
There has been significant recent experimental activity on the related topics of charm mixing and rare (flavor changing neutral current) decay. For mixing, several new results from direct (wrong sign) searches and first results from…
In this talk, we review the recent experimental developments on charmonium and charm spectroscopy base on the data samples taken by the BESIII, Belle, LHCb and CMS experiments. We concentrate on the resonant parameter measurement of…
We describe some of the extensions of the SM, including models with spontaneous CP violation, where New Physics relevant for CP violation may arise. It is emphasized that the SM predicts a series of exact relations among various measurable…
While rare meson decays place stringent constraints on much of the flavour violating parameter space of supersymmetric models, the mixing between right-handed top and charm squarks is so far unconstrained by the available data. Such mixing…
We review various implications of recent experimental results concerning CP violation and mixing in $K\to\pi\pi$, $B\to\psi K_S$, $D\to K\pi$ and $D\to KK$ decays.
Belle II is a major upgrade of the Belle experiment and will operate at the $B$-factory SuperKEKB in Japan. Here we discuss the expected sensitivity of Belle II for $D^0 - \bar{D}^0$ mixing and $CP$ violation measurements in the charm…
