The decay K_L -> pi0 gamma e+ e- occurs at a it higher rate than the nonradiative process K_L -> pi0 e+ e-, and hence can be a background to CP violation studies using the latter reaction. It also has an interest in its own right in the…

CP violation leads to a difference between the parameters $g^+$ and $g^-$ describing the energy distributions of the charged pions produced in the $K^+ \to\pi^0 \pi^0 \pi^+$ and $K^- \to \pi^0\pi^0 \pi^-$ decays. We study the difference…

We study the CP violating effects in the decay of $\eta\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$. We show that to have CP violation in the decay, one has to consider both linear and circular photon polarizations. In the standard model, the polarizations are…

We report on a search for the decay K_L -> pi^0 nu nubar, carried out as a part of E799-II, a rare K_L decay experiment at Fermilab. Within the Standard Model, the K_L -> pi^0 nu nubar decay is dominated by direct CP violating processes,…

Indirect CP violation in the $D^0$ system can be probed by measuring the parameter $A_{\Gamma}$, defined as the CP asymmetry of the effective lifetime of the $D^0$ meson decaying to a CP eigenstate. This can be significantly enhanced beyond…

We consider CP violating effects in decays of the type $B^\pm\to \gamma a^\pm_{1,2}$ where $a_{1,2}$ are the $J^P=1^+$ and $2^+$ resonances each decaying to the common final state via $a^\pm_{1,2} \to\pi^\pm\rho^0$. The resonances enhance…
