We analyse the B -> pi pi, pi K modes in the light of the most recent B-factory data, and obtain the following new results: (i) the B0 -> pi+ pi-, pi- K+ modes prefer gamma=(74+-6)deg, which - together with |V_ub/V_cb| - allows us to…
A possible effect of direct CP violation in D->K0Spipi decay on the gamma measurement from B->DK, D->K0Spi+pi- Dalitz plot analysis is considered. Systematic uncertainty of gamma coming from the current limits on direct CP violation in…
I will here make some brief comments on the T- and CP- odd asymmetry observed by KTeV in the KL -> pi^+pi^-e^+e^- decay.
Recently observed increase of direct CP asymmetry in charm meson nonleptonic decays is difficult to explain within the SM. If this effect is induced by new physics, this might be investigated in other charm processes. We propose to…
I give a short presentation of the theoretical prediction of epsilon-prime/epsilon. Short distance and especially long distance aspects of the computation is discussed. I consentrate on the general framework and the chiral quark model…
The leading order contribution to the direct CP asymmetry in tau^{+/-} -> K^{+/-} pi^0 nu_{tau} decay rates is evaluated within the Standard Model. The weak phase required for CP violation is introduced through an interesting mechanism…
CP violation is observed to date only in K^0 decays and is parameterizable by a single quantity epsilon. Because it is one of the least understood phenomena in the Standard Model and holds a clue to baryogenesis, it must be investigated…
