We study direct CP violation in the bottom baryon decays \Lambda_b -> f \rho^0 (\omega) -> f\pi^+\pi^- (f=n or \Lambda). It is found that in these decays via \rho-\omega mixing the CP violation could be very large when the invariant mass of…

We study direct CP violating asymmetries (CPAs) in the two-body $\Lambda_b$ decays of $\Lambda_b\to pM(V)$ with $M(V)=K^-(K^{*-})$ and $\pi^-(\rho^-)$ based on the generalized factorization method. After simultaneously explaining the…

Direct CP violation in the hadronic decays $\Bar{B}^{0} \to \pi^{+}\pi^{-} \pi^{0}$ is investigated near the peak of the $\rho^{0}$ taking into account the effect of $\rho - \omega$ mixing. Branching ratios for processes $B^{\pm,0} \to…

I present three studies from the LHCb experiment on the subject of direct CP violation in $B^0$ and $B_s$ decays. First, we measure the CP asymmetry in $B^\pm\to\psi K^\pm$ decays, with $\psi=J/\psi, \psi(2S)$, using 0.35 $fb^{-1}$ of $pp$…

The first observation of $CP$ violation in baryon decays was recently reported by the LHCb collaboration in $\Lambda_b^0\to pK^-\pi^+\pi^-$ with $A_{CP} = (2.45 \pm 0.46 \pm 0.10)\%$, which inspires the study on baryon non-leptonic decays.…
