We discuss the determination of the CKM parameters from the forthcoming $CP$ violation observables in $B_s \to K^+ K^-$ decays. Combining the information on mixing induced CP violation in $B_s \to K^+ K^-$, with the $B_d \to J/\psi K_s$…

We present the current wisdom regarding the measurement of the CP-violating phases of the CKM unitarity triangle in $B$-meson decays. After an introduction to the SM picture of CP violation, we review direct and indirect CP violation, the…

The first direct observation of time-reversal (T) violation in the $B\bar{B}$ system has been reported by the BaBar collaboration, employing the method of Ba$\tilde {\rm n}\!$uls and Bernab\'eu. Given this, we generalize their analysis of…
We update the profile of the CKM matrix. The apex (rhobar,etabar) of the Unitarity Triangle is given by means of a global fit. We propose to include therein sin2alpha from the CP-violating asymmetries in B0->rho+rho-, using isospin to…

With the help of the light-quark triangle, which is essentially congruent to the rescaled unitarity triangle for a variety of textures of the quark mass matrices, we calculate the CP-violating quantity \sin 2\beta and the ratio of |V_{ub}|…
We report improved measurements of time-dependent CP violation parameters for B^0(\bar{B}^0) -> psi(2S) K_S. This analysis is based on a data sample of 657x10^6 BBbar pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the…
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 present a preliminary measurement of the Standard Model CP violation parameter $\sin 2\phi_1$ using the Belle detector. A $6.2~{\rm fb}^{-1}$ sample of events produced by the KEKB asymmetric $e^+e^-$ collider operating at the…
This paper presents a novel two-stage optimization framework designed to model integrated quantile functions, which leads to the formulation of a bilinear optimization problem (P). A specific instance of this framework offers a new approach…
The BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC collected a sample of 23M B-anti-B pairs in the years 1999 and 2000. Using this data sample, we measure the amplitude of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry in neutral B…
Principal component analysis (PCA) is a popular dimension reduction technique often used to visualize high-dimensional data structures. In genomics, this can involve millions of variables, but only tens to hundreds of observations.…
Phenomenological CP-violating parameters in decays of neutral B-mesons are discussed. Special attention is given to the degree of their measurability. We emphasize important role of the sign of $\Delta m_B$ and suggest how it could be…
CP violation in K and B decays is reviewed in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. In K decays, one is seeking first evidence for CP violation in direct $K\to \pi\pi$ decays. This would not give a precise quantitative test for the…
We consider the decay B0(t) -> hyperon + antihyperon, followed by hyperon weak decay. We show that parity violation in the latter allows to reach new CP observables: not only Im(lambda_f) but also Re(lambda_f) can be measured. In the decay…
Higher criticism is a method for detecting signals that are both sparse and weak. Although first proposed in cases where the noise variables are independent, higher criticism also has reasonable performance in settings where those variables…
