Various developing topics in CP violation are reviewed. There are many theoretical reasons to hope that the CKM paradigm may be incomplete. It is surely too soon to be claiming new physics in \epsilon^\prime/\epsilon or in D^0-\bar D^0…
We present the selected recent charm results at Belle: (1) the $CP$ asymmetries and branching fractions for the decays of charm mesons, i.e. $D^{0}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\eta,\,K^{+}K^{-}\eta$ and $D^{0}\to\phi\eta$; $D_{s}^{+}\to…
The coherence factor and average strong phase difference of D0 and D0bar decay amplitudes to the same final state play an important role in the precision determination of the CKM parameter gamma using B- -> DK- and related decay modes. So…
This work presents the first detailed numerical predictions of CP violation in antitriplet charmed baryon decays. Adopting the flavor $SU(3)_F$ symmetry and the final state re-scattering framework, we relate the CKM-suppressed amplitudes to…
Flavour physics has a long tradition of paving the way for direct discoveries of new particles and interactions. Results over the last decade have placed stringent bounds on the parameter space of physics beyond the Standard Model. Early…
The LHCb experiment has been reporting remarkable $C\!P$-violation (CPV) measurements concerning the sectors of $b$ and $c$ quarks. Recently, the new measurements of time-integrated CPV with $D^0\to K^+ K^-$ decays led to the first evidence…
Following a brief introduction I report the current status of symmetry violation tests from the BaBar experiment, including recent results on the measurement of T violation, and searches for CP and T violation in mixing.
It was recently pointed out that inclusive B^0(t) decays could show CP violation. The totally inclusive asymmetry is expected to be tiny [O(10^{-3})] because of large cancellations among the asymmetries in the charmless, single charm and…
We review the status of recently observed positive parity charmed resonances, both in the non-strange and in the strange sector. We describe the experimental findings, the main theoretical analyses and the open problems deserving further…
The LHCb collaboration recently announced preliminary evidence for CP violation in D meson decays. We discuss this result in the context of the standard model (SM), as well as its extensions. In the absence of reliable methods to evaluate…
We report an update to our previous measurement of the CKM element $|V_{ub}|$ using exclusive $B \rightarrow \pi \ell \nu$ decays. In the charm sector we have performed a measurement of $f_{Ds}$ using $D_s\rightarrow\tau^+\nu_{\tau}$…
In view of the observed strong hierarchy of quark masses, we discuss a new description of flavor mixing which is particularly suited for models of quark mass matrices based on flavor symmetries. The necessary and sufficient conditions for…
The status of CP violation and the CKM matrix is reviewed. Direct CP violation in B decay has been established and the measurement of sin(2beta) in \psi K modes reached 5% accuracy. I discuss the implications of these, and of the possible…
Many new results on open and hidden charm spectroscopy have been obtained recently. We present a short review of the experimental findings in the meson sector, of the theoretical interpretations and of the open problems, with a discussion…
We propose for the first time a method to perform analysis of time-dependent CP asymmetries in charm by using both, correlated and un-correlated $D^0$ mesons. Here we consider the decay channels $D^0\to K^+ K^-$ and $D^0\to \pi^+ \pi^-$.…
This article summarises measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries in decays of neutral B mesons to charm final states using data collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B-factory. All results are preliminary…
Measurements of charm mixing and $C\!P$ violation parameters from the decay-time-dependent ratio of $ D^0 \to K^+ \pi^- $ to $ D^0 \to K^- \pi^+ $ decay rates and the charge-conjugate ratio are reported. The analysis uses $\overline{B}\to…
Recent charm results from Belle experiment are presented in this proceedings, including (1) measurement of mixing parameter $y_{CP}=(0.96\pm0.91\pm 0.62^{+0.17}_{-0.00})\%$ in $CP$-odd decay for the first time, (2) the first Dalitz-plot…
Observation in astronomy suggests that our Universe contains an abundance of matter over antimatter, which can only be explained if the combined CP symmetry is violated. Studies of CP violation have driven the flavor physics with the aim of…
Recent results from the CDF collaboration are presented on the production of final states containing charm and beauty quarks.
