In this talk I review how to search for CP violation in top-quark pair production and decay using T-odd correlations. I discuss two examples which illustrate many of the relevant features: CP violation in a heavy neutral Higgs boson; and CP…
In the recent year many new results from kaon decays have been reported from both the NA48 experiment at CERN and the KTeV experiment at Fermilab. Both experiments have new and improved measurements of the parameter Re(epsilon'/epsilon) of…
I review some of the salient issues connected to CP-violation and weak decays. In particular, I focus on recent and forthcoming tests of the CKM model and discuss the accuracy one can expect to achieve in B-decays for the parameters of this…
Although CP violation was discovered more than thirty years ago, its origin is still unknown. In these lectures, we describe the CP-violating effects which have been seen in K decays, and explain how CP violation can be caused by the…
We review the present status of the Standard Model of CP violation, which is based on a complex phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi- Maskawa (CKM) matrix. So far CP violation has been observed only in $K^0-\Kbar$ mixing, consistent with a…
Since the discovery of CP violation more than 5 decades ago, this phenomenon is still attracting a lot of interest. Among the many fascinating aspects of this subject, this review is dedicated to direct CP violation in non-leptonic decays.…
This work presents the first detailed numerical predictions of CP violation in antitriplet charmed baryon decays. Adopting the flavor $SU(3)_F$ symmetry and the final state re-scattering framework, we relate the CKM-suppressed amplitudes to…
CP violation in neutral $B$ meson oscillations is an experimental observable that could be directly related to the baryon asymmetry of the Universe through the $B$-Mesogenesis mechanism. As this phenomenon is highly suppressed in the…
CP violation in top physics is reviewed. The Standard Model has negligible effects, consequently CP violation searches involving the top quark may constitute the best way to look for physics beyond the Standard Model. Non-standard sources…
I discuss vacuum alignment and CP violation in technicolor theories of electroweak and flavor symmetry breaking. I review the surprising appearance of rational phase solutions in the technifermion sector and propose a new solution of the…
The search for CP violation in interactions of the Higgs boson with either fermions or bosons provides attractive reference measurements in the Particle Physics Community Planning Exercise (a.k.a. "Snowmass"). Benchmark measurements of CP…
We discuss the potential of observing effects of CP-violation phases in squark decay chains at the LHC. As the CP-odd observable, we use the asymmetry composed by triple products of final state momenta. There are good prospects of observing…
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…
The phase convention independent measure of CP violation for three generations of leptons is evaluated at different energy scales. Unlike in the quark sector, this quantity does not vary much between the weak and the grand unification…
The Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB electron-positron collider will provide a large sample of charm mesons in addition to its primary goal of B meson production. The large data sample and wide variety of accessible D meson decay modes…
The first lattice result from the RBC and UKQCD Collaborations and improved perturbative calculations of $\varepsilon^{\prime}_K / \varepsilon_K$ have implied that the Standard-Model (SM) expectation deviates from measured values at the…
We review the experimental searches and determinations of direct CP violation in meson decays and other systems.
Our knowledge of flavour dynamics has undergone a `quantum jump' since just before the turn of the millenium: direct \cp violation has been firmly {\em established} in $K_L \to \pi \pi$ decays in 1999; the first \cp asymmetry outside $K_L$…
This is a written version of a series of lectures aimed at graduate students in the field of (theoretical and experimental) high energy physics. The main topics covered are: (i) The flavor sector of the Standard Model and the…
The B-meson system provides many strategies to perform stringent tests of the Standard-Model description of CP violation. In this brief review, we discuss implications of the currently available B-factory data on the angles alpha, beta and…
