Recent results by the NA48 collaboration on neutral kaons rare decays into the pi+ pi- e+ e- final state are presented. A large CP-violating asymmetry A(K_L)=(13.9+-2.7+-2.0)% has been observed in the K_L to pi+ pi- e+ e- decay. The K_S to…
The epsilon-impurity of the K_L wave-function gives rise to a huge CP-violating effect in the decay K_L -> pi^+ pi^- gamma which is hidden in the polarization state (Stokes vector) of the photon. One component of the Stokes vector is CP-odd…
We report updated measurements of indirect and direct CP asymmetry in decays $D^0 \to K^+K^-,\pi^+\pi^-$ and a new measurement of direct and indirect CP asymmetry in decays $D^0 \to \pi^0\pi^0$, using the full data sample of the Belle…
We analyze the asymmetry in the partial widths for the decays $B^{\pm} \to M {\bar M} \pi^{\pm}$ ($ M = \pi^+, K ^+, \pi^0, \eta$), which results from the interference of the nonresonant decay amplitude with the resonant amplitude for…
The CP violating asymmetries in the (b -> d l^+ l^-) decay, when one of the leptons is polarized, is investigated using the most general form of the effective Hamiltonian. The sensitivity of the CP violating asymmetries on the new Wilson…

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 investigate systematically how to extract new physics contributions in B --> K pi l^+ l^- decay by using the angular decomposition. The decomposition will enable us to define not only several CP averaged forward-backward (FB) asymmetries…

New CP-violating asymmetries of decay leptons in $e^+\,e^-\;\ra\;t\,\bar{t}$, arising from electric and weak dipole couplings of $t\,\bar{t}$ to $\gamma$ and $Z$, are examined in the case of unpolarized and longitudinally polarized…

We observe evidence for CP violation in the decay $D^+\rightarrow K^0_S\pi^+$ using a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 977 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ asymmetric-energy collider. The CP…
Recently observed increase of direct CP asymmetry in charm meson nonleptonic decays is difficult to explain within the SM. If this effect is induced by new physics, this might be investigated in other charm processes. We propose to…

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…
As a sequel to the calculation of the CP-violating asymmetry in the decay rates of b -> d l^+l^- and \bar{b} -> \bar{d} l^+l^-, we address in this paper the asymmetry in exclusive channels \bar{B} -> pi e^+e^- and \bar{B} -> rho e^+e^-,…

The distributions of the single decay b-quarks and leptons from e^+e^- \to t\bar t assuming CP violation are reviewed. Different asymmetries, sensitive independently to CP violation in the production and in the decay, and sensitive to the…
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…
The CP-violating asymmetries in the exclusive decay B->K^*l^+l^- (l=e,mu,tau) are predicted to be exceedingly small in the standard model (SM), thereby offering an opportunity to assess various new-physics scenarios. We derive quantitative…
