We describe some of the extensions of the SM, including models with spontaneous CP violation, where New Physics relevant for CP violation may arise. It is emphasized that the SM predicts a series of exact relations among various measurable…
CP violation in the kaon system can manifest itself in decays to final states containing neutral kaons. The effect is governed by an efficiency function that reflects the specific experimental setup. We demonstrate that this efficiency…
We study CP violation and the contribution of the strong kaon-pion interactions in the three body B --> K pi+ pi- decays. We extend our recent work on the effect of the two-pion S- and P-wave interactions to that of the corresponding…
Recent developments concerning CP violation beyond the Standard Model are reviewed. The central target of this presentation is the $B$ system, as it plays an outstanding role in the extraction of CKM phases. Besides a general discussion of…
We wish to discriminate spike sequences based on the degree of irregularity. For this purpose, we search for a rational expressions of quadratic functions of consecutive interspike intervals that efficiently measures spiking irregularity.…
We reconsider the meaning of observing CP violation in neutrino oscillation.
We use the perturbative QCD methods of Lepage and Brodsky to calculate the rate for B-bar_s -> rho K_s, with an eye toward the CP violating unitarity triangle angle gamma. We show that, although the penguins are large, there are regions of…
In the two-user Gaussian interference channel with Gaussian inputs and treating interference as noise (TIN), improper complex signals can be beneficial if time-sharing is not allowed or if only the data rates are averaged over several…
We propose a way of detecting CP violation in a single neutrino oscillation channel at very long baselines (on the order of several thousands of kilometers), given precise knowledge of the smallest mass-squared difference. It is shown that…
We present a preliminary measurement of CP-violation parameters in the decay B0 -> K+K-K0, using approximately 347 million BBbar events collected by the BABAR detector at SLAC. Reconstructing the neutral kaon as KS -> pi+pi-, KS -> pi0pi0,…
We review CP properties of the Two-Higgs-Doublet model. In particular, we show that spontaneous CP violation occurs in the parameter space on the border between regions allowing explicit CP violation and those where there is another…
It is well known that one can use B -> pi pi decays to probe the CP-violating phase \alpha. In this paper we show that these same decays can be used to search for new physics. This is done by comparing two weak phases which are equal in the…
It is well known that $\sin(2\beta)$, where $\beta$ is one of the angles of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix, can be determined in a theoretically clean way by measuring mixing-induced CP violation in the decay $B_d \to J/\psi K_S$.…
We suggest a new experiment sensitive to a possible difference between the amount of CP violation as measured on the surface of the Earth and in a lower gravity environment. Our proposed experiment is model independent and could yield a…
We present a measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry for the neutral B-meson decay into the CP = +1 final state Ks pi0 pi0, with Ks -> pi+ pi-. We use a sample of approximately 227 million B-meson pairs recorded at the Upsilon(4S)…
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 present preliminary results of a time-dependent measurement of CP-violating asymmetry in fully reconstructed B0->D^(*)+-pi-+ decays in a data sample of approximately 88 million Y(4S)->BB decays collected with the BaBar detector at the…
In the presence of penguin contributions, the indirect CP asymmetry in B0(t) -> pi+ pi- measures sin(2\alpha + 2\theta), where 2\theta parametrizes the size of the penguin ``pollution.'' We derive a new upper bound on |2\theta|, requiring…
Quantum particles, such as spins, can be used for communicating spatial directions to observers who share no common coordinate frame. We show that if the emitter's signals are the orbit of a group, then the optimal detection method may not…
We study CP violation phenomena with the subquark model which is previously proposed by us. Our subquark model claims that ``direct'' and ``indirect'' CP violation originate from different sources, which are both belonging to subquark…
