Three possibilities for the origin of CP violation are discussed: (1) the Standard Model in which all CP violation is due to one parameter in the CKM matrix, (2) the superweak model in which all CP violation is due to new physics and (3)…
In this letter we introduce a possible measure of the size of CP violation in the Standard Model and its extensions, based on quantities invariant under the change of weak quark basis. We also introduce a measure of the ``average size'' of…
The special features of CP violation in the Standard Model are presented. The significance of measuring CP violation in B, K and D decays is explained. The predictions of the Standard Model for CP asymmetries in B decays are analyzed in…
The mechanism of CP violation remains one of the puzzles in particle physics. Key to understanding this phenomenon are nonleptonic $B$ decays, especially multibody decays which exhibit large CP asymmetries in various regions of phase space.…
In the K and Bd systems, indirect CP violation is quantified by the parameters epsilon_K and sin 2beta respectively. Within the Standard Model, the uniqueness of the CP violating phase implies that the measurement of either between…

We discuss the testing of the Standard Model of CP violation, and the search for CP-violating effects from beyond the Standard Model, in $B$ decays. We then focus on the quantum mechanics of the experiments on CP violation to be performed…
CP violation is a crucial component in the creation of the matter - anti matter asymmetry of the universe. An important open question is whether the CP violating phenomena observeable in terrestrial experiments have any relation with those…
The baryon asymmetry of the Universe requires CP violation, but the Standard Model falls short by a factor of $10^{-10}$ or more. Starting from a clue at the $B$ factories, we point out that the large Yukawa couplings of the sequential…
CP violation in hadronic B-decays is studied in a definite and well motivated framework of flavour physics and supersymmetry. Possible deviations from the standard model both in mixing and in decay amplitudes are discussed. An attempt is…
The Standard Model contains a natural source for CP asymmetries in weak decays, which is described by the KM mechanism. Beyond $\epsilon _K$ it generates only elusive manifestations of CP violation in {\em light-}quark systems. On the other…
Four topics in theory of CP violation are reviewed. (a) CP violation in $B$ decays: We describe a new clean way of constraining the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle and how new CP violation in decay amplitudes can signal new…
We review basic aspects of the phenomenology of CP violation in the decays of $K$ and $B$ mesons. In particular we discuss the commonly used classification of CP violation -- CP violation in the mass matrix, in the interference of mixing…
I review CP-violating signals of physics beyond the standard model in the B system. I examine the prospects for finding these effects at future colliders, with an emphasis on hadron machines.
How to account for the matter predominance of our Universe is a fundamental issue at the core of our existence. One condition is CP violation, but the Standard Model falls short by more than $10^{-10}$. Taking cue from a recent result from…
I will give here an overview of the present observational and theoretical situation regarding the question of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe and the related question of the existence of antimatter on a cosmological scale. I…

This review of CP violation focuses on the status of the subject and its likely future development through experiments in the Kaon system and with B-decays. Although present observations of CP violation are perfectly consistent with the CKM…
If the Standard Model explanation of CP violation is correct, then measurements of CP-violating asymmetries in $B$ meson decays can in principle determine the entire quark mixing matrix.
