The LHCb experiment will search for New Physics in Bs mixing. The Bs mixing phase will be extracted from the measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry in exclusive Bs decays governed by the b -> ccbar s quark-level transition. Large…
We analyse the CP asymmetry for B_{s} -->\gamma\gamma in the two Higgs doublet model with tree level flavor changing currents (model III) and three Higgs doublet model with O_2 symmetry in the Higgs sector, including O_{7} type long…
We investigate the pattern of CP violation in K, B_d and B_s mixing in a symmetrical SU(2)_R x SU(2)_L x U(1) model with spontaneous CP violation. We calculate the phases of the left and right quark mixing matrices beyond the small phase…
We calculate the dominant Standard Model contributions to the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B0->K*0 gamma, which is O(1/mb) in QCD factorisation. We find that, including all relevant hadronic effects, in particular from soft gluons, the…
When new CP-violating interactions are dominated by flavor changing neutral particle exchanges, that may occur in many extensions of the standard model. We examine a type 3 two Higgs doublet model and find that direct CP asymmetries can be…
We discuss the time-dependent CP asymmetry of decay $B \to \phi K_S$ in an extension of the Standard Model with both two Higgs doublets and additional fourth-generation quarks. We show that although the Standard Model with two-Higgs-doublet…
The charged fermion mass matrices are invariant under $U(1)^3$ symmetry linked to the fermion number transformation. Under the condition that the definition of this symmetry in arbitrary weak basis does not depend upon Higgs parameters such…
The direct CP-asymmetry in the inclusive $B \to X_d \gamma$ and $B \to X_d e^+ e^ - $ decays is investigated in the two-Higgs doublet extension of the Standard Model (2HDM). The investigation is performed in the lowest non-vanishing order…
We propose a CP-violating source in the charged Higgs sector of a 3-Higgs Doublet Model (3HDM) that will contribute to three CP-asymmetry observables for low energy processes. In the context of such a 3HDM, a measurement of one of the…
Within the standard model (SM), the time dependent CP asymmetries in B -> psi K_S, B -> eta' K_S and B -> phi K_S are expected to give the same result i.e. sin (2 beta). However recent measurements of the mixing induced CP asymmetries in B…
We present a preliminary measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry for the neutral B-meson decay into the CP = +1 final state KS pi0 pi0, with KS-> pi+ pi- and pi0-> gamma gamma. We use a sample of approximately 227 million B-meson…
The most general Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) allows both for the explicit and the spontaneous CP violation in the scalar sector. Here we discuss CP violation in terms of basis-independent quantities and show how using two different sets…
We consider sparticle contributions to time dependent CP asymmetry in B -> phi K_S. As for the gluino-squark loop, LR or RL insertion is more likely to give recently observed S_{phi K} < 0 than LL or RR insertion. Neutral Higgs contribution…
We present a measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry for the neutral B-meson decay into the CP = +1 final state Ks pi0 pi0, with Ks -> pi+ pi-. We use a sample of approximately 227 million B-meson pairs recorded at the Upsilon(4S)…
We have studied the neutral Higgs boson (NHB) contributions to the pure penguin process $B\to \phi K_S$ in MSSM with middle and large $\tan\beta$ (say, $>$ 8). We show that the $\alpha_s$ order hadronic matrix elements of NHB induced…
In the model III 2HDM there are new CP violating phases which would affect the $B_{d,s}^0 - \bar{B}_{d,s}^0$ mixing. In this paper, we calculate the new physics contributions to the neutral B meson mass splitting $\Delta M_{B_q}$ (q=d, s)…
The two kinds of indirect CP violation in neutral meson systems are related, in the absence of new weak phases in decay. The result is a model-independent expression relating CP violation in mixing, CP violation in the interference of…
We calculate the direct CP violating asymmetry parameter, $a_{CP}$, for $B \to \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi$ and $B \to \pi^{+} \pi^{-} K$ decays, in the case where $\rho^0-\omega$ mixing effects are taken into account. We find that the direct CP…
The time-dependent CP asymmetry in exclusive B^0(t) -> K^{*0}\gamma decays has been proposed as a probe of new physics in B decays. Recently, this method was extended to radiative decays into multibody hadronic final states such as B^0(t)->…
I present three studies from the LHCb experiment on the subject of direct CP violation in $B^0$ and $B_s$ decays. First, we measure the CP asymmetry in $B^\pm\to\psi K^\pm$ decays, with $\psi=J/\psi, \psi(2S)$, using 0.35 $fb^{-1}$ of $pp$…
