We present updated results on time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates. The measurements use a data sample of about 62 million Upsilon(4S) --> B anti-B decays collected between 1999 and 2001 by…
We point out that the observed CP violation in Bd - bar{Bd} mixing, taking into account the measured ratio Delta Md / Delta Ms, the recently improved lattice value of the non-perturbative parameter BK and an additional effective suppression…
Supersymmetry without R-parity contains new tree-level contributions to B-decays. A brief summary is provided of the current experimental bounds on those tree-level contributions which are relevant to B physics. Signals to look for are…
We present a precise measurement of the standard model CP-violation parameter sin(2phi1), the direct CP violation parameter |lambda|, the lifetimes of charged and neutral B mesons and their ratio, and the B0-B0bar mixing parameter Delta m_d…
We present a preliminary measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry in the neutral B decay B0 --> phi K0S, with phi --> K+K- and K0S --> pi+pi-. The measurement uses a data sample of about 87 million Y(4S) --> B Bbar decays…
Heavy, as yet undiscovered particles, can affect measurements of CP violation in the B system. Measuring CP violation in the Bs system provides an excellent place to observe such effects since Standard Model sources are predicted to produce…

We present an updated measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. This result uses an additional sample of Upsilon(4S) decays collected in…
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…
In the standard model the CP asymmetries in $B\to \psi K_S$ and $B\to \psi K_L$ are equal in magnitude and opposite in sign to very good approximation. We compute the order $\epsilon_K$ corrections to each of these CP asymmetries and find…
Determination of the characteristic CP-violating quantity \sin (2\beta) should be the central goal of a B-meson factory in its first-round experiments. Except the gold-plated channels B_d\to \psi K_S and \psi K_L, three other types of B_d…
We present a measurement of the time-dependent asymmetry in the rate for $\bar{B}{^0_d}$ versus $B^0_d$ decays to $J/\psi K^0_S$. In the context of the Standard Model this is interpreted as a measurement of the CP-violation parameter…
The BABAR detector, operating at energies near the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance at the PEP-II asymmetric $B$ Factory at SLAC, has collected a sample of 32 million $B\bar B$ pairs by May 2001. A study of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries…
We argue that a small or large CP-violating asymmetry {\cal A}_{\psi K_S} in B^0_d vs \bar{B}^0_d --> J/\psi K_S decays, which seems to be favored by the recent BaBar or Belle data, might hint at the existence of new physics in B^0_d -…
We report the recent measurements of $B^0\to J/\psi\pi^0$ and other CP violation modes based on the data collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB collider. The CP asymmetry parameters for the decay $B^0\to J/\psi\pi^0$ have previously…
The recent experimental results on CP violation related to the angles of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) unitarity triangle 2beta+gamma are summarized in these proceedings. These results are obtained with approximately 232 million…
We present a preliminary measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in B0 -> J/psi K0S and B0 -> psi(2S) K0S decays recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. The data sample consists of…
Using primarily experimental inputs for S(B -> psi Ks), Delta M_Bs, Delta M_Bd, BR(B -> tau nu) and epsilon_K along with necessary inputs from the lattice, we find that the measured value of sin(2 beta) is smaller than expectations of the…
CP violation in $\tau\to K_S \pi\nu_\tau$ decays has attracted a lot of attention recently, due to the BaBar anomaly in the corresponding rate asymmetry. Within an effective field theory formalism, only extreme fine-tuning would allow to…
Non-leptonic B_s decays into CP eigenstates that are caused by \bar b -> \bar cc\bar s quark-level transitions, such as B_s -> D_s^+D^-_s, J/psi eta^(') or J/psi phi, provide a powerful tool to search for ``new physics'', as the…
