We have searched for flavor-changing neutral current decays and lepton-number-violating decays of D^+ and D^+_s mesons to final states of the form h^+- e^-+ e^+, where h is either \pi or K. We use the complete samples of CLEO-c open-charm…
Recent disagreement between experimental measurments of CP violating asymmetry in D -> K+ K- and D ->pi+ pi- and theoretical Standard model expectation motivated many studies within the Standard model and beyond. Rare charm decays offer new…
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 charmless decays $B^{\pm} \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{\pm}$ and $B^{\pm} \rightarrow \pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{\pm}$ are reconstructed in a data set, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collisions at a…
We have searched for CP-violating asymmetries in neutral charm meson decays in 13.7 fb^-1 of e^+e^- collision data at sqrt{s} = 10.6 GeV with the CLEO detector. The measured asymmetries in the rate of D0 and D0bar decays to K0sPi0, Pi0Pi0…
The CKM paradigm has been tested thoroughly over the last 40 years in both the neutral $K$ and $B$ systems. The recent discovery of neutral charm meson mixing has prompted the search for CP violation in $D$ decays. We discuss the prospects…
In view of the recent LHCb measurement of Delta A_CP, the difference between the time-integrated CP asymmetries in D --> K+K- and D --> pi+pi- decays, we perform a comparative study of the possible impact of New Physics degrees of freedom…
I give a pedagogical introduction into flavour-changing neutral current interactions of kaons and their role to reveal or constrain physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). Then I discuss the measure $\epsilon_K^\prime$ of direct CP…
This study reports \textit{CP} asymmetry measurements in charmless three-body decays of \textit{B} mesons, both using the Run II data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 $TeV$, collected by the LHCb detector from…
The decay bar B -> bar K* (-> bar K pi) l+ l- offers great opportunities to explore the physics at and above the electroweak scale by means of an angular analysis. We investigate the physics potential of the seven CP asymmetries plus the…
Three new results are discussed: (a) A non-vanishing amplitude for the `wrong sign{'} kaon decay $B \to J/\Psi \bar{K}$ or its CP conjugate is shown to be a necessary condition for obtaining different CP asymmetries in $B \to J/\Psi…
A high statistics sample of photoproduced charm particles from the FOCUS (E831) experiment at Fermilab has been used to search for CP violation in the Cabibbo suppressed decay modes D+ to K-K+pi+, D0 to K-K+ and D0 to pi-pi+. We have…
We investigate to what extent the recently measured value for a non-vanishing direct CP asymmetry in D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decays can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) or extensions with a constrained flavour sector, for…
Within the Standard Model, CP rate asymmetries for $B\to K^-\pi^{+,0}$ could reach 10%. With strong final state phases, they could go up to 20--30%, even for $\bar K^0\pi^-$ mode which would have opposite sign. We can account for…
The LHCb experiment measured the time-dependent CP asymmetries $C_{KK}$ and $S_{KK}$ in $B_s\to K^+K^-$ decay. Combining with the corresponding CP asymmetries $C_{\pi\pi}$ and $S_{\pi\pi}$ in $B\to \pi^+\pi^-$ decay, we find that the size…
Under the assumption that the various evidences of a `95 GeV' excess, seen in data at the Large Electron Positron (LEP) collider as well as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), correspond to actual signals of new physics Beyond the Standard…
We present the selected recent charm results at Belle: (1) the $CP$ asymmetries and branching fractions for the decays of charm mesons, i.e. $D^{0}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\eta,\,K^{+}K^{-}\eta$ and $D^{0}\to\phi\eta$; $D_{s}^{+}\to…
This talk addresses two topics related to CP asymmetries in $D$ meson decays to two pseudoscalar mesons. First I discuss how new physics can be distinguished from the Standard Model through two sum rules relating three direct CP asymmetries…
The observation of a sizable CP asymmetry in the inclusive decays B -> Xs gamma would be a clean signal of New Physics. In the Standard Model, this asymmetry is below 1 % in magnitude. In extensions of the Standard Model with new…
Decays of the type $B\to D hh^\prime$, where a $b$~hadron decays to a neutral charm meson that can be an admixture of $D^0$ and $\overline{D}{}^0$ states together with two light particles that are typically a kaon and a pion, have…
