This is a quick review of CP non-conservation in $B$ physics. Several methods are described for testing the Kobayashi-Maskawa single phase origin of CP violation in B decays, pointing out some limitations due to hadronic uncertainties. A…
The study of $CP$ violation in hyperon transitions has a long history. In the early 2000s the HyperCP experiment made a major effort to seek $CP$-odd signals in the decay sequence $\Xi^-\to\Lambda \pi^-$ and $\Lambda\to p\pi^-$, which…
CP violation plays a privileged role in our quest for new physics beyond the electroweak standard model (SM). In the SM the violation of CP in the weak interactions has a single source: the phase of the quark mixing matrix (the CKM matrix,…
In this talk I begin with some general discussion of the history of CP violation, then move on to aspects of a spontaneous CP violation model including the production of new particles at LHC, implications for B decay, generalized Cabibbo…
In this article we give an overview of CP-violation for both K^0 (\bar{K}^0 ), B^0 (\bar{B}^0), and B_s(\bar{B}_s) systems. Direct CP-violation and mixing induced CP-violation are discussed for K^0(\bar{K}^0), and B^0(\bar{B}^0) decays.
CP violation is an important tool to test the Standard Model and his extensions. We describe kaon physics observables testing CP violation and more in general short distance physics. Channels under consideration will be K -> pi nu nu, K ->…
Measurements of CP--violating observables in neutrino oscillation experiments have been studied in the literature as a way to determine the CP--violating phase in the mixing matrix for leptons. Here we show that such observables also probe…
While the Kobayashi--Maskawa model of CP violation passed its first crucial precision test in $B\to J/\psi K_S$, other CP asymmetries in $B$ and $B_s$ decays will have to be measured in order to critically test and overconstrain the model…
We comment on CP, T and CPT violation in the light of interesting new data from the CPLEAR and KTeV Collaborations on neutral kaon decay asymmetries. Other recent data from the CPLEAR experiment, constraining possible violations of CPT and…

Within the framework of Standard Model, the exclusive decay mode $B\to \pi \gamma \gamma $ is studied. Although the usual short distance contribution is small compared to the similar $B\to K\gamma\gamma$ mode, the process offers the…
In this talk I review theoretical predictions for CP violation in non-leptonic hyperon decays in the Standard Model and models beyond. In the Standard Model the CP violating observable $A$ in the polarization asymmetries of $\Lambda \to p…
The LHCb collaboration has recently measured the first direct CP violation in $B^0_s$ decays with a rate asymmetry $A_{CP}(B^0_s\to K^- \pi^+)$ given by $0.27 \pm 0.04(stat)\pm 0.01(syst)$. At the same time they also made the most precise…
A first flavour-tagged measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry in $B_s^0 \to \phi\phi$ decays is presented. In this decay channel, the CP-violating weak phase arises due to CP violation in the interference between…
We study the direct CP violation in $B^\pm\to p\bar p K^{(*)\pm}$ decays in the standard model. We point out that these three-body baryonic B decays can be important tools for detecting the direct CP violation in the charged $B$ system, in…
Inspired by the unexpectedly large difference between the CP violation of $D$ decays into $K^+K^-$ and $\pi^+\pi^-$, we explore the impact on the extraction of $\gamma$ via the $B\to DK$ process with the $D$ meson reconstructed in the…
The narrative of these lectures contains three main threads: (i) CP violation despite having so far been observed only in the decays of neutral kaons has been recognized as a phenomenon of truly fundamental importance. The KM ansatz…
Using a technique which employs a pair of solid scintillator regenerators, the E773 collaboration has measured several CP violation parameters in K meson decay at Fermilab. We report new results for the phase of eta_+-, the K_L-K_S mass…
I review some of the salient issues connected to CP-violation and weak decays. In particular, I focus on recent and forthcoming tests of the CKM model and discuss the accuracy one can expect to achieve in B-decays for the parameters of this…
