The complex phases $\phi_d$ and $\phi_s$, associated with the mixing between neutral $B_q^0$ and $\bar B_q^0$ mesons ($q\in\{d,s\}$), are key observables to test the Standard Model and search for contributions from new physics. They are…
We perform a time-dependent and time-integrated angular analysis of the decays $B^0\to\phi K^{*}(892)^0$, $\phi K^{*}_2(1430)^0$, and $\phi(K\pi)^{*0}_{0}$ with the final sample of about 465 million $\BB$ pairs recorded with the $\babar$…
We study CP asymmetries in rare B decays within supersymmetry with a U(2)^3 flavour symmetry, motivated by the SUSY flavour and CP problems, the hierarchies in the Yukawa couplings and the absence so far of any direct evidence for SUSY.…

The study of CP violation in $B_s^0$ oscillations is one of the key goals of the LHCb experiment. Effects are predicted to be very small in the Standard Model but can be significantly enhanced in many models of new physics. We present the…

Sensitivity studies to the CP-violating parameters of the decay Bs->phi phi with the LHCb experiment are presented. The decay proceeds via a b->s s anti-s gluonic-penguin quark transition, which is sensitive to contributions from beyond the…
A new way of determining the phases of weak amplitudes in charged $B$ decays based on SU(3) symmetry is proposed. The CP violating phase $\gamma$ can now be determined without the previous difficulty associated with electroweak penguins.
We propose two independent methods to determine the CKM phase $\gamma$ and the tree and penguin amplitudes using neutral $B$ decays, assuming that the phase $\beta$ is known. Based on flavor SU(3) symmetry and SU(3) breaking effect, one…
We discuss methods to resolve the ambiguities in CP violating phase angles $\phi$ that are left when a measurement of $\sin 2 \phi$ is made. We show what knowledge of hadronic quantities will be needed to fully resolve all such ambiguities.
