The $B \to \pi K$ system provides a rich laboratory for testing the Standard Model and studying CP violation. A particularly important channel is $B^0_d\to\pi^0 K_{\rm S}$, the only mode exhibiting both direct and mixing-induced CP…
We review various implications of recent experimental results concerning CP violation and mixing in $K\to\pi\pi$, $B\to\psi K_S$, $D\to K\pi$ and $D\to KK$ decays.
The $B^0_{s,d} \to J/\psi \eta^{(\prime)}$ decays provide new terrain for exploring CP violation. After briefly discussing $\eta$-$\eta'$ mixing, we analyse the effective lifetimes and CP-violating observables of the $B_s$ channels, which…
These lectures present the phenomenology of B meson decays and their impact on our understanding of CP violation in the quark sector, with an emphasis on measurements made at the e+e- B factories. Some of the relevant theoretical ideas such…
We study CP violation induced by neutral kaon mixing in $a_{CP}(D^0 \rightarrow K_S K_S)$. We show that the contribution from neutral kaon mixing arises only in connection with second-order weak interactions in $D$ decays. We estimate this…
After an introduction to the Standard-Model description of CP violation, we turn to the main focus of these lectures, the B-meson system. Since non-leptonic B decays play the key role for the exploration of CP violation, we have to discuss…
We investigate the possibility that the CP violation due to the soft supersymmetry breaking terms in squark mixing can give significant contributions to the various $\gamma$ related parameters in B decays, different from those of the…
Experimental data on rare $B$-meson decays indicate deviations from Standard Model predictions. In studies of these decays, possible new sources of CP violation are often neglected. We discuss CP violation in the rare $B$-meson decays $B\to…
We calculate the direct CP violating asymmetry parameter, $a_{CP}$, for $B \to \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi$ and $B \to \pi^{+} \pi^{-} K$ decays, in the case where $\rho^0-\omega$ mixing effects are taken into account. We find that the direct CP…
We have recently shown that the large direct CP violation observed in the decay B^0 -> pi^+ pi^-, and the enhanced branching ratio for B^0 -> pi^0 pi^0, can be understood by invoking a small mixing of the pi pi system with the dominant D…
We propose a model of soft CP violation that evades the strong CP problem and can describe observed CP violation in the neutral kaon sector, both direct and indirect. Our model requires two ``duark'' mesons carrying quark number two that…
Recent evidence for a CP violating asymmetry in the semileptonic decays of B_s mesons cannot be accommodated within the Standard Model. Such an asymmetry can be explained by new physics contributions to Delta B=2 components of either the…
The T-odd triple product (TP) asymmetries in B decays to a pair of vector mesons are treated as a good probe of CP violation because of the CPT symmetry. If CPT is no longer a good symmetry, such correlations between T-odd and CP-odd…
Direct CP violations in $B_{l4}$ decays ($B^\pm \to \pi^+\pi^- l^\pm {\nu}_l$) are investigated within the Standard Model (SM) and also in its extensions. In the decay processes, we include various excited states as intermediate states…
Measurements of CP asymmetries in B decays will soon be made at $B$ factories and hadron machines. In light of this, we review and update the profile of the CKM unitarity triangle and the resulting CP asymmetries in B decays. This is done…
When a neutral meson $(P^0 \text{ or } \bar P^0)$ decays to two vector particles, a large number of observables can be constructed from differential decay rate based on the polarization of final state. But, theoretically, all of them are…
We present the summary of the working group on $B$ mixing and the related CP violation at the CKM 2014 workshop. The contributions reflect the experimental and theoretical progress in the field over the last two years since the last CKM…
The phenomenon of CP violation and strategies for extracting the angles of the unitarity triangle are reviewed. Special emphasis is given to the B-meson system, as it plays an outstanding role to test the Standard Model description of CP…
We briefly discuss measurements of CP violation in Bs --> J/psi phi decay. Both the phenomenology of Bs mixing and the importance of the measurement to searches for new physics, as well as technical details and issues with the analysis are…
Direct CP violation can exist in untagged, neutral B-meson decays to certain self-conjugate, hadronic final states. It can occur if the resonances which appear therein permit the identification of distinct, CP-conjugate states -- in analogy…
