We investigate new physics models that can increase the lifetime differences in the $B_q$--$\bar{B}_q$ systems ($q = d,s$) above their standard model values. If both $B_q$ as well as $\bar{B}_q$ can decay to a final state through flavour…

The study of CP violation in $B$-meson decays has already reached a high level of precision, which will be pushed even higher in the future era of Belle-II and the LHCb upgrade. %Important probes of CP violation are the $B_d^0$ and $B_s^0$…

In the decay chain B(d) --> Psi + K --> Psi + (pi l nu), neutral K mixing follows on the heels of neutral B mixing. This "cascade mixing" leads to an interference which probes cos(2*beta), where beta is one of the three CP-violating phase…
