$CP$ asymmetry is a crucial element in interpreting the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe and searching for new physics beyond the Standard Model. In this work, we study the $CP$ asymmetries in the $\Lambda_c^+\to pK^0_S$ and…
We study the CP asymmetries of the rare top-quark decays $t \to c \gamma$ and $t \to cg$ in the aligned two-Higgs-doublet model (A2HDM), which is generically characterized by new sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model (SM).…
We study the differential decay rate for the rare $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda (\to N \pi)\ell^+\ell^-$ transition, including a determination of the complete angular distribution, assuming unpolarized $\Lambda_b$ baryons. On the basis of a…
Direct CP asymmetries and the CP violating normal polarization of lepton in inclusive decay B \to X_s l^+ l^- are investigated in minimal supergravity model with CP violating phases. The contributions coming from exchanging neutral Higgs…
The CP asymmetry in $B^0\to K^+\pi^-$ is expected to be similar to that in $B^+\to K^+\pi^0$. The experimental data however show $\sim 5\sigma$ difference between the two, leading to the so called $\Delta {A}_{K\pi}$ puzzle. Employing sum…
CP violation in top physics is reviewed. The Standard Model has negligible effects, consequently CP violation searches involving the top quark may constitute the best way to look for physics beyond the Standard Model. Non-standard sources…
CP-violating effects in the time-dependent angular distribution of the B^0_s -> J/psi[-> ell^+ ell^-] phi[-> K^+K^-] decay products play a key role for the search of new physics. The hadronic Standard-Model uncertainties are related to…
We investigate systematically how to extract new physics contributions in B --> K pi l^+ l^- decay by using the angular decomposition. The decomposition will enable us to define not only several CP averaged forward-backward (FB) asymmetries…
Recently, the large CP asymmetries in $B^\pm\to\pi^\pm\pi^+\pi^-$ decays were found by the LHCb Collaboration to localize in the region $m_{\pi^+\pi^-}^2<0.4 \text{GeV}^2$. We find such large localized CP asymmetries may be due to the…
It was pointed out recently that supersymmetry can generate flavor-changing gluonic dipole operators with sufficiently large coefficients to dominate the observed value of epsilon'/epsilon. We point out that the same operators contribute to…
We search for CP violation in a sample of $4.7\times10^4$ Cabibbo-suppressed $D^0 \to K^+ K^- \pi^+ \pi^-$ decays. We use 470{\rm fb}^{-1} of data recorded by the BaBar detector at the PEPII asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ storage rings running…
A recent analysis of $B \to \pi K$ decays concludes that present data do not clearly indicate whether (i) the standard model (or $\Delta I=0$ new physics) is sufficient, or (ii) $\Delta I=1$ new physics is needed. We show that these two…
The New Physics (NP) effects are studied in the rare baryonic decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda (\to p\pi^-)\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$, with unpolarized $\Lambda_b$ using most general model independent approach by introducing new axial(vector),…
We analyze various theoretical aspects of CP violation in singly Cabibbo suppressed (SCS) D-meson decays, such as $D \to K K,\pi \pi$. In particular, we explore the possibility that CP asymmetries will be measured close to the present level…

The penguin loop-suppressed $B\to\phi K$ decays are highly sensitive to contributions of hypothetical heavy new particles. Particularly interesting probes for testing the Standard Model and revealing such phenomena are provided by CP…
The short-distance Hamiltonian describing b->s(d)e^-e^+ in the standard model is used to obtain the decay spectrum of \bar{B}->K^-pi^+e^-e^+ and \bar{B}->pi^-pi^+e^-e^+, assuming the Kpi and pipi systems to be the decay products of K^* and…
We present a novel method to search for a new CP-violating phase in b -> ss~ss~s transition using B -> phi phi Xs decays, where Xs represents a final state with a specific strange flavor such as K+/-, K*+/-, or K+/-pi-/+. Direct CP…
We reexamine large CP-violating phases in the general Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, as well as more restricted models. We perform a detailed scan over parameter space to find solutions which satisfy the current experimental limits…
CP asymmetries in $B^0(t)\to \pi^+ \pi^-$ are studied by relating this process in broken flavor SU(3) with $B^+\to K^0\pi^+$ and $B^0\to K^+\pi^-$. Using two different scenarios for SU(3) breaking, we show that the range of values of the…
