We study a new type of CP violating observable that arises in three body decays that are dominated by an intermediate resonance. If two interfering diagrams exist with different orderings of final state particles, the required CP-even phase…
We review the experimental searches and determinations of direct CP violation in meson decays and other systems.
We present for the first time a master formula for $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$, the ratio probing direct CP violation in $K \to \pi\pi$ decays, valid in any theory beyond the Standard Model (BSM). The formula makes use of hadronic matrix…
The K to pi pi system is analyzed in the chiral limit and at NLO in 1/N_c. The Delta I = 1/2 rule is reproduced and we obtain a large value for epsilon' / epsilon.
We provide an overview of the current experimental and theoretical status of charm CP violation and discuss recent progress in obtaining a Standard Model prediction for $\Delta a_{\rm CP}^{\rm dir}$ using the framework of light-cone sum…
A model independent study of non-Standard Model CP-violating processes is presented with emphasis on the observability of the effects.
First full next-to-leading order analytical results in Chiral Perturbation Theory for the charged Kaon K -> 3 pi slope g and decay rates CP-violating asymmetries are presented. We discuss the constraints that a measurement of these…
In the near future, we will have the first significant experimental measurements of CP violation in B decays. These measurements will easily test crucial questions such as whether the Standard Model Kobayashi-Maskawa phase plays a dominant…
Several recent results from the NA48 experiment are presented: a measurement $|\eta_{+-}|$, search for CP violating phenomena in $K^\pm\to3\pi$ decays, and a measurement of $|V_{us}|$.
In the standard model, we study CP violating rate asymmetries in the decay b->d l^+ l^- when one of the leptons is polarised. We find an asymmetry of (5 -- 15)% in the polarised decay spectrum which is comparable to known results for the…
The final result is presented of the NA48 Experiment performed at CERN SPS neutral kaon beams on the direct CP violation parameter Re(epsilon'/epsilon), as maesured from the decay rates of neutral kaons into two pions. The data collected in…
We investigate the possible sizes of all the CP-violating asymmetries offered by the angular distribution of rare decay $\Lambda_b\rightarrow \Lambda(\to p \pi^-) \ell^+\ell^-$ in the Standard Model and new physics scenarios motivated by…
In this decade, the exploration of CP violation is governed by the B-meson system, where non-leptonic decays play an outstanding role. To set the stage, we have first a look at the main strategies to circumvent the calculation of the…
After a brief essay on the current state of particle physics and possible approaches to the opportunities before us, I summarize the contributions to the Third Workshop on Physics and Detectors for DAFNE that deal with CP Violation and Rare…
The recent experimental results of CP violation in Bs decays other than in the J/psi phi final state are discussed. Included are the resonant components and $\phi_s$ determination in Bs -> J/psi pi+ pi-, CP asymmetries in Bs -> h+ h'-…
We update the CP-violating asymmetries in K^+ -> 3 pi. In particular we study Delta g_C and Delta g_N -the asymmetries in the slope g. We emphasize its complementarity to the direct CP-violation parameter epsilon_K' and the large…
In the K and Bd systems, indirect CP violation is quantified by the parameters epsilon_K and sin 2beta respectively. Within the Standard Model, the uniqueness of the CP violating phase implies that the measurement of either between…
We study the minimal version of the supersymmetric standard model with spontaneous CP breaking. In this model, the KM matrix is real and contributions to $\varepsilon$ arise from box diagrams involving squarks. We analyze the region of the…
Recently a rephasing invariant definition of the CP-mixing parameter for Indirect CP Violation has been introduced. This is made possible by the explicit use of the CP operator into the analysis. The problem is then that of the…
We point out that in supersymmetric models the direct CP violating asymmetry $A(\Lambda^0_-)$ in $\Lambda \to \pi^- p$ can be of $O(10^{-3})$ in the range to be probed by the current E871 experiment.
