In the QCD factorization (QCDF) approach we study the direct $CP$ violation in $\bar{B}^{0}\rightarrow\rho^0(\omega)\rho^0(\omega)\rightarrow\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ via the $\rho-\omega$ mixing mechanism. We find that the $CP$ violation can…
An analysis of the decays of $B^\mp \rightarrow D K^\mp$ and $B^\mp \rightarrow D \pi^\mp $ is presented in which the $D$ meson is reconstructed in the three-body final states $K^\mp \pi^\pm \pi^0$, $\pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$ and $K^+ K^- \pi^0$.…

Motivated by recent measurements, we investigate $B\to \pi \pi, K \pi$ decay modes in the framework of QCD improved factorization, which was recently proposed by Beneke $et al$. We find that all the measured branching ratios are well…
We calculate the branching ratio and $CP$ violations for $B\to K\pi$ decays in a modified perturbative QCD approach based on $k_{T}$ factorization. The resummation effect of the transverse momentum regulates the endpoint singularity. Using…
In this work, we study the localized $CP$ violation and the branching fraction of the four-body decay $\bar{B}^0\rightarrow K^-\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+$ by employing a quasi-two-body QCD factorization approach. Considering the interference of…
The last three years have seen a phase transition in our knowledge about CP violation: (i) Direct CP violation has been established in $K_L \to \pi \pi$. (ii) The first CP violation outside $K_L$ decays has been observed in $B_d \to \psi…
We study implications of spontaneous CP-violation in minimal susy models for CP-asymmetries in rare $B,\bar B$-decays. In particular, we estimate characteristic values of the angles of the unitarity triangle and show that sizeable…
Recent highlights in CP violation phenomena are reviewed. B-factory results imply that CP-violation phase in the CKM matrix is the dominant contributor to the observed CP violation in K and B-physics. Deviations from the predictions of the…

Measurements of mixing and $CP$ violation in $b$-hadron decays are great probes to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. A selection of recent results based upon $3.0\ \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of LHCb data are presented. These are the…
A search for CP violation in the phase space of the decay $D^+\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ is reported using $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy…
