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…
The study of CP violation in $B$-meson decays has already reached a high level of precision, which will be pushed even higher in the future era of Belle-II and the LHCb upgrade. %Important probes of CP violation are the $B_d^0$ and $B_s^0$…
The LHC physics era is about to commence; here we discuss a complementary physics program that would be realized at a high luminosity flavor factory. A flavor factory experiment can search for new physics in CP asymmetries, inclusive decay…

CP violation in hadronic B-decays is studied in a definite and well motivated framework of flavour physics and supersymmetry. Possible deviations from the standard model both in mixing and in decay amplitudes are discussed. An attempt is…

We explain the many reasons for the interest in flavor physics. We describe flavor physics and the related CP violation within the Standard Model, and explain how the B-factories proved that the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism dominates the CP…
The observation of a sizable CP asymmetry in the inclusive decays B -> Xs gamma would be a clean signal of New Physics. In the Standard Model, this asymmetry is below 1 % in magnitude. In extensions of the Standard Model with new…
