A small upper-bound is obtained for the CP phase $\delta$ in a CKM matrix, $|\sin\delta| \le 0.44$ based on CP independent data on $|V_{ub}/V_{cb}|$ alone. Potential inconsistencies with the CKM model in existing data which need a theory…

Measurements of $CP$-violating observables in $B$ meson decays can be used to determine the angles of the Unitarity Triangle and hence probe for manifestations of New Physics beyond the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa Standard Model paradigm. Of…

We study the uncertainties of the Standard Model (SM) predictions for CP violating B decays and investigate where and how supersymmetric (SUSY) contributions may be disentangled. The first task is accomplished by letting the relevant matrix…

Within a specific texture of the quark mass matrix the notion of a maximal violation of the $CP$ symmetry can be defined. The experimental constraints from weak decays imply that in reality one is close to the case of maximal $CP$…

Four topics in theory of CP violation are reviewed. (a) CP violation in $B$ decays: We describe a new clean way of constraining the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle and how new CP violation in decay amplitudes can signal new…

The decay modes $B$ to $\pi\pi$, $\psi K_S$, $K^- D$, $\pi K$ and $\eta K$ are promising channels to study the unitarity triangle of the CP violating CKM matrix. In this paper I study the consequences of these measurements in the Weinberg…

We investigate the sensitivity of the next generation of flavor-based low-energy experiments to probe the supersymmetric parameter space in the context of the phenomenological MSSM (pMSSM), and examine the complementarity with direct…

We summarize briefly the CKM picture of flavour and CP violation that governs the models with minimal flavour violation (MFV). We then describe how this framework can be efficiently tested through particle-antiparticle mixing and rare $K$…

We analyse the CP problem in the context of a supersymmetric extension of the standard model with universal strength of Yukawa couplings. A salient feature of these models is that the CP phases are constrained to be very small by the…

A brief review of CP violation in $K$ and $B$ decays is given. While the observables $\varepsilon$ and Re$(\varepsilon'/\varepsilon)$ describing CP violation in neutral $K$ decays do not allow a powerful test of the CKM mechanism of CP…

We study possible effects of new physics in CP asymmetries in two-body $B_s$ decays in left-right models with spontaneous CP violation. Considering the contributions of new CP phases to the $B_s$ mixing as well as to the penguin dominated…

We study the linking between the CP violating phase of the lepton sectors and the unitarity triangle of the B0 meson system. Antusch, King, Malinsky and Spinrath have shown that the quark mass matrices with the negligible 1-3 mixing give an…

Within the Standard model with the 4th generation quarks b' and t' we have analyzed CP-violating flavor changing neutral current processes t -> cX; b'-> sX, b'-> bX,t'-> cX, and t'-> tX, with X=Z,H,gamma,g, by constructing and employing…

We obtain analytic formulae for the cross section of the sequential processes of $e^+ e^- \to t \bar t$ and $t \to b l \nu$ in the laboratory frame where the dependence on triple product correlations of the type ($\hat(q}_1 x \hat{q}_2 .…

The measurement of CP asymmetries in charged B meson decays might provide the first demonstration of CP violation outside the K system. Among the usual three CP-odd phases $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$, the phase $\gamma$ seems to be the…

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…

Possible effects of noncommutative geometry on weak CP violation and unitarity triangles are discussed by taking account of a simple version of the momentum-dependent quark mixing matrix in the noncommutative standard model. In particular,…

We work in a model where all CP violating phenomena have a common source. CP is spontaneously broken at a large scale $V$ through the phase of a complex singlet scalar. An additional $SU(2)_L$ singlet vector-like down-type quark relates…

Using a data sample of 62 million \FourS\to B\Bbar decays collected between 1999 and 2001 by the BaBar detector at the PEP2 asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC we study events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a final…

In the supersymmetric standard model, the radiative $B$-meson decay $B \to X_s \gamma$ could receive a large contribution from a new source of flavor-changing neutral current, which also violates CP invariance. The CP-conjugate processes…
