We investigate the phenomenon of CP violation in the weak decay of bottom hadrons (B mesons) through comprehensive theoretical analysis and mathematical derivations. We analyze the fundamental mechanisms of B meson decay, emphasizing the…
Rare charm decays offer the unique possibility to explore flavour-changing neutral-currents in the up-sector within the Standard Model and beyond. Due to the lack of effective methods to reliably describe its low energy dynamics, rare charm…
The decay $B^0_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$ is a key probe for the search of physics beyond the Standard Model. While the current measurements of the corresponding branching ratio agree with the Standard Model within the uncertainties, significant…
CP violation in charm decay was observed in the decays $D^0\rightarrow P^{\pm}P^{\mp}$ of a $D^0$ meson to two pseudoscalars. When interpreted within the SM, the results imply that the ratio of the relevant rescattering amplitudes has a…
The study of $C\!P$ violation in decays of beauty- and charm-hadrons provides a fundamental test of the predictions of the Standard Model (SM) and represents a sensitive probe to search for physics effects that cannot be described within…
We investigate the CP violating asymmetry, the forward backward asymmetry and the CP violating asymmetry in the forward-backward asymmetry for the radiative dileptonic B-meson decays $B_{d}\to \gamma \ell^+ \ell^-$ for the $\ell= e, \mu,…
Results of recent searches for new physics in CP violation in charm decays from the BABAR experiment are presented. These results include a measurement of $D^0$ - $\bar{D}^0$ mixing and searches for CP violation in two-body $D^0$ decays, a…
We argue that the observation of a sizable direct CP asymmetry A_{CP} in the inclusive decays B -> X_s gamma would be a clean signal of New Physics. In the Standard Model, A_{CP} can be calculated reliably and is found to be below 1% in…
The decays of $B$ mesons to a pair of charmless pseudoscalar mesons ($PP$ decays) or to a vector and pseudoscalar meson ($VP$ decays) have been analyzed within the framework of flavor SU(3) symmetry and the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism of CP…
Scalar interactions (in effective Hamiltonian) can give significant variation of various experimental observables, as comparted to their respective Standard Model values, in dileptonic decays of B-meson. Also the quark level transition $b…
We consider CP-violating effects in tau -> 3 pi nu_ tau and 4 pi nu_ tau (Delta S = 0), and tau -> K pi pi nu_tau (Delta S = 1), assuming that the usual Standard Model amplitudes for these processes interfere with analogous amplitudes…
We study the CP violation in lepton number violating meson decays $M^{\pm} \to \ell_1^{\pm} \ell_2^{\pm} M^{' \mp}$, where $M$ and $M^{'}$ are pseudoscalar mesons, $M=K, D, D_s, B, B_c$ and $M^{'}=\pi, K, D, D_s$, and the charged leptons…
It is suggested that a nearby $0^{++}$ resonance, $f_0$(1710) of mass $m_f=1723 MeV$ and width $\Gamma=139$ MeV is playing a significant role in efficiently providing the strong (CP-conserving) and weak (CP-odd) phase simultaneously in the…
Motivated by recent experimental results on charm physics we investigate implications of the updated constraints of new physics in rare charm meson decays. We first reconsider effects of the MSSM in $c\to u \gamma$ constrained by the recent…
We derive Standard Model predictions for the CP asymmetries of singly-Cabibbo suppressed $D\rightarrow P\eta'$ decays, where $P=K,\pi,\eta$. Our predictions are based on the approximate SU(3)$_F$ symmetry of QCD and include first-order…
Direct CP-asymmetries in inclusive decay modes can be cleanly calculated by exploiting quark-hadron duality. This is in sharp contrast to CP-asymmetries in exclusive channels, where unknown strong phases prevent a clean extraction of CKM…
We consider hadronic weak decays of beauty-baryons into charmless baryons and pseudoscalar mesons in a general framework based on $SU(3)$ decomposition of the decay amplitudes. The advantage of the approach lies in the ability to perform an…
We examine CP violation in the Delta S=0 decays tau -> omega pi nu_tau and tau -> a_1 pi nu_tau and the Delta S=1 decay tau -> K pi pi nu_tau. We assume that the new physics is a charged Higgs. We show that sizeable CP-violating effects are…
We discuss the implications of the recent discovery of CP violation in two-body SCS $D$ decays by LHCb. We show that the result can be explained within the SM without the need for any large $SU(3)$ breaking effects. It further enables the…
