The sum of the CP-violating asymmetries A_Omega and A_Lambda in the decay sequence Omega->Lambda K, Lambda->p pi is presently being measured by the E871 experiment. We evaluate contributions to A_Omega from the standard model and from…
We calculate the CP-violating asymmetries A(Lambda_-^0) and A(Xi_-^-) in nonleptonic hyperon decay within the Standard Model using the framework of heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory (chiPT). We identify those terms that correspond to…
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…
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.
It was pointed out recently that supersymmetry can generate flavor-changing gluonic dipole operators with sufficiently large coefficients to dominate the observed value of epsilon'/epsilon. We point out that the same operators contribute to…
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…
Non-conservation of CP symmetry can manisfest itself in non-leptonic hyperon decays as a difference in the decay parameter between the strange-baryon decay and its charge conjugate. By comparing the decay distribution in the $\Lambda$…
We consider three possible scenarios of new physics in B^0_d-\bar{B}^0_d mixing and propose a simple framework for analyzing their effects. This framework allows us to study the CP asymmetry in semileptonic B_d decays ({\cal A}_{SL}) and…
Non-leptonic two-body weak decays of baryons are an important tool to probe the combined charge-conjugation--parity symmetry (CP) violation. We explain why the decays of strange baryons provide complementary information to the decays of…
The CP violation asymmetry parameters in $\Xi \to\pi\Lambda$ nonleptonic decays are presently being measured by the HyperCP experiment. In the study of these CP violation parameters, the strong $S$ and $P$ phase shifts for the $\pi\Lambda$…
We consider the decay B0(t) -> hyperon + antihyperon, followed by hyperon weak decay. We show that parity violation in the latter allows to reach new CP observables: not only Im(lambda_f) but also Re(lambda_f) can be measured. In the decay…
We present a concise overview on $CP$ violation in hyperon decays, including past, present, and future efforts to search for it. We highlight in particular the most recent results of the BESIII experiment using a quantum-entangled pair of…
In this talk I discuss CP violation in hyperon decays in Left-Right symmetric models. I show that the asymmetry in polarization in $\Lambda \to p\pi^-$ can be as large as $6\times 10^{-4}$ in these models, which is an order of magnitude…
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…
A search for direct CP violation in the non-leptonic decays of hyperons has been performed. In comparing the product of the decay parameters, $\alpha_{\Xi}\alpha_{\Lambda}$, in terms of an asymmetry parameter, $A_{\Xi\Lambda}$, between…
The LHCb Collaboration has recently found a large CP-violating rate asymmetry in the $b$-baryon decay $\Lambda^0_b \to pK^-\pi^+\pi^-$. This is the first observation of CP violation in baryon processes, opening a new window to test its…
The CP-violating asymmetries in the exclusive decay B->K^*l^+l^- (l=e,mu,tau) are predicted to be exceedingly small in the standard model (SM), thereby offering an opportunity to assess various new-physics scenarios. We derive quantitative…
Using their full Tevatron Run II data sets, the CDF and D0 Experiments present measurements of CP-violating asymmetries in the charmless decay of bottom baryons Lambda-b => p pi-, Lambda-b => p K-, and also for Bs0 => K- pi+, B0 => K+ pi-,…
While indirect & direct CP violations (CPV) had been established in the decays of strange & beauty mesons, none have been done for baryons. There are different "roads" for finding CP asymmetries in the decays of strange baryons; they are…
We study possible effects of new physics in CP asymmetries in two-body $B_s$ decays in left-right models with spontaneous CP violation. Considering the contributions of new CP phases to the $B_s$ mixing as well as to the penguin dominated…
