We summarize recent results by the BABAR and Belle Collaborations on the search for CP violation and new physics beyond the Standard Model in several rare B meson decays. The measurements exploit the final BABAR and Belle Upsilon(4S)…
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 present an updated measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry in B0->K0S K0S K0S decays based on 347 million Upsilon(4S)->B Bbar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC. We…
We describe a new method for obtaining the CP phase alpha via measurements of B_{d,s} -> K(*) Kbar(*) decays. This method is particularly appropriate for hadron colliders since some of the branching ratios are small [O(10^{-6})], and since…
An overview of plans for the measurement of gamma at the LHCb experiment will be shown. The gamma angle is the least accurately known parameter of the CKM unitary triangle. The LHCb experiment at the CERN LHC aims to perform precision heavy…
Based on 471 million BB pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- collider, we perform a series of measurements on rare decays B->K(*)l+l-, where l+l- is either e+e- or mu+mu-. The measurements include total branching…
We present a new method for measuring the CP phase \alpha. It requires the measurement of the pure penguin decays Bd(t) -> K(*) Kbar(*) and B_s -> K(*) Kbar(*). The method is quite clean: we estimate the theoretical uncertainty to be at…
A precise determination of the CKM angle $\gamma$ from $B_s^0$ oscillations in $B_s^0 \to D_s^\mp K^\pm$ decays offers a critical test of the Standard Model and probes for new physics. We present a comprehensive study on the prospects of…
Motivated by the first observation of CP violation in $b$-baryon decays, the search for baryonic decays exhibiting large CP violation will be a primary focus in the coming years. We propose that significant CP-violating effects exist in the…
We present a measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in $B^0 \to K^{*0}\gamma (K^{*0}\to K_S^0 \pi^0)$ decays based on 124 million $\Upsilon(4S)\to B^0\bar{B}^0$ decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II…
The BaBar experiment at SLAC is designed to measure CP violation in the B meson system, however the very high statistics combined with the different electron and positron beam energies, the detector design and the open trigger allow a wide…
We present updated results on time-dependent CP asymmetries in fully reconstructed B0->D(*)+-pi-+ and B0->D+-rho-+ decays in approximately 232 million Y(4S)->BBbar events collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B…
The search for rare B decays and direct CP violation at BABAR is described. The following measurements (based on integrated luminosities ranging from 56.4 to 81.9fb-1) are summarized: the inclusive branching fractions and direct CP…
In this proceeding, results of searches for CP violation in charm decays using the full BABAR dataset are discussed. The parameter $A_{CP}$ in the decay $D^\pm\to\KS\pi^\pm$ is determined to be $(-0.39 \pm 0.13 \pm 0.10)%$. Meaurements of…
We present an analysis of the decays B0 -> K*0 gamma and B+ -> K*+ gamma using a sample of 383 million BBbar events collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP2 asymmetric energy B factory. We measure the branching fractions BF[B0 -> K*0…
Measurements of CP asymmetries in B decays will soon be made at $B$ factories and hadron machines. In light of this, we review and update the profile of the CKM unitarity triangle and the resulting CP asymmetries in B decays. This is done…
BaBar has found $A_{\rm CP}(\tau^- \to \nu K_S\pi^- [\geq \pi^0]) = (-0.36 \pm 0.23 \pm 0.11)%$ with 2.8 $\sigma$ difference with SM prediction $A_{\rm CP}(\tau^- \to \nu K_S\pi^-) = (0.36 \pm 0.01)%$ based on $K^0 - \bar K^0$ oscillation.…

We present an updated measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries in fully reconstructed neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates containing a charmonium meson. The measurements use a data sample of (347.5 +/- 3.8) x 10^{6} $\FourS \to…
Using a sample of 227 million $\Upsilon(4S) \to B \bar{B}$ events collected with the $BABAR$ detector at the PEP-II $B$ Factory in 1999--2004, we study $B^- \to D^0 K^*(892)^-$ decays where $K^{*-} \to K^0_S \pi^-$ and $D^0 \to K^-\pi^+,…
