We study the localized direct CP violation in the hadronic decays $B^\pm\rightarrow \rho^0 (\omega)\pi^\pm\rightarrow\pi^+ \pi^-\pi^\pm$, including the effect caused by an interesting mechanism involving the charge symmetry violating mixing…
A measurement of direct CP violation in the decay $B^{+} \rightarrow K^{+} \pi^{0}$ is reported using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 $\textrm{fb}^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass…
The LHCb and CDF Collaborations have recently reported evidence for a CP asymmetry around -0.7% in $\Delta A_{CP}$, the difference between $A_{CP}(D^0 \to K^+ K^-)$ and $A_{CP}(D^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-)$. In the Standard Model this effect may be…
The explanation of the large CP asymmetries in $D^0\to (\pi^+\pi^-, K^+K^-)$ decays observed by the LHCb collaboration is likely to call for new physics beyond the CKM paradigm. We explore new contributions caused by the color-sextet scalar…
We review the subject of CP violation in the $B$ meson system within the Standard Model of CP violation, which is based on a complex phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. Three kinds of CP nonconservation are studied: In…
We present new measurements of CP-violation parameters in B0->phi/Ks, K+K-Ks, f0(980)Ks, eta'Ks, omega/Ks, Pi0/Ks, and K*0(KsPi0)/gamma decays based on a sample of 275x10^6 BBbar pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle…
Direct CP violation can occur in B-meson decays of the type b -> d+c+cbar, where the charm-anticharm pair forms a J/psi. The CP asymmetry requires the contribution to the amplitude from decays into other states, which rescatter into d+J/psi…
We systematically investigate the $CP$-averaged branching ratios and $CP$ violations (CPVs) for the two-body hadronic decays $\Lambda_b\to ph$, where $h$ runs through the mesons $\pi^-$, $\rho^-$, $a_1^-(1260)$, $K^-$, $K^{\ast -}$,…
We present a pedagogical review of the phenomenology of CP violation, with emphasis on B decays. Main topics include the phenomenology of neutral meson systems, CP violation in the Standard Model of electroweak interactions, and B decays.…
I present three studies from the LHCb experiment on the subject of direct CP violation in $B^0$ and $B_s$ decays. First, we measure the CP asymmetry in $B^\pm\to\psi K^\pm$ decays, with $\psi=J/\psi, \psi(2S)$, using 0.35 $fb^{-1}$ of $pp$…
We consider $B^{\pm,0} \to \rho^0(\omega)h^{\pm,0}$, where $\rho^0(\omega)$ decays to $\pi^+\pi^-$ and $h$ is any hadronic final state, such as $\pi$ or $K$. We find a large direct CP asymmetry in B-meson decays via $\rho \omega$…
Searches for $CP$ violation in the decays $D^+_{(s)}\rightarrow \eta \pi^+$ and $D^+_{(s)}\rightarrow \eta^{\prime} \pi^+$ are performed using $pp$ collision data corresponding to 6 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected by the LHCb…
We report the results of a CP violation analysis of the decay B+/- --> D(pipipi0)K+/-, where D(pipipi0) indicates a neutral D meson detected in the final state pi+pi-pi0, excluding K_S pi0. The analysis makes use of 324 million e+e- --> BB…
Data indicate that $\Delta I=1/2$ transitions account for 4.5-4.7% of both CP conserving and CP violating $K \to 2\pi$ decays, as well as CP conserving radiative $K \to \pi\pi\gamma$ processes. Observed $K \to \pi\pi\gamma/\pi\pi$ branching…
The role of B decays in the study of CP violation is reviewed. We treat the interactions and spectroscopy of the $b$ quark and then introduce CP violation in $B$ meson decays, including time-dependences, decays to CP eigenstates and…
We report a measurement of CP asymmetry parameters in the decay B0(B0bar) -> J/Psi pi0, which is governed by the b->c cbar d transition. The analysis is based on a 140/fb data sample accumulated at the Upsilon(4S) resonance by the belle…
We search for CP violation in a sample of 20000 Cabibbo-suppressed decays, $D^+\rightarrow K^+K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$, and 30000 Cabibbo-favored decays, $D_s^+\rightarrow K^+K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$. We use 520 $fb^{-1}$ of data recorded by the BaBar…
