Using the unitarity, SU(2) and $C$-invariance of hadronic interactions, the bounds on final state phases are derived. It is shown that values obtained for the final state phases relevant for the direct CP-asymmetries $A_{CP}(B^{0}\to…
Recent topics regarding CP violation in heavy meson systems are discussed. As an introduction, the status of the Unitarity Triangle fit and CP violation in B meson mixing are briefly reviewed. Two topics are covered in more detail: Penguin…
There are different approaches for the hadronic B decay calculations, recently. In this paper, we upgrade three of them, namely factorization, QCD factorization and the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization, by using new…
In the Left-Right Symmetric Model (LRSM), box diagrams involving the charged right-handed gauge boson W_R may affect B-Bbar mixing as well as CP asymmetries in neutral B decays. The smallness of the epsilon_K parameter in the neutral…
We analyze the minimal supersymmetric left-right model with non-re\-nor\-malizable interactions induced by higher scale physics and study its {\it CP} violating properties. We show that it: (i) solves the strong {\it CP} problem; (ii)…
CP violation from physics beyond the Standard Model is investigated in $B_{l4}$ decays: $B\to D\pi l\bar{\nu}_l$. The semileptonic $B$-meson decay to a $D$-meson with an emission of single pion is analyzed with heavy quark effective theory…
The direct CP-violation in the left-right symmetric $SU(2) \times SU(2) \times U(1)$ model is investigated for the decay $b \rightarrow s\gamma$. The calculated CP-asymmetry for the wide range of parameters can be larger than in standard…
We present a systematic analysis of the angular distribution of Bbar -> Kbar^\ast (-> Kbar pi) l^+ l^- decays with l = e, mu in the low recoil region (i.e. at high dilepton invariant masses of the order of the mass of the b-quark) to…
We study violation of quark-hadron duality for $\bar{B}\to X_ul\nu$ and $D\to X_dl\nu$ decays in the presence of the right-handed current operator. For this case, we show that duality violation has some aspects different from the standard…
We study CP violating B decays in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with R-parity violation. We estimate how much R-parity violation modifies the SM predictions for CP asymmetries in B decays within the present bounds. The effects…
Recent results on the mixing-induced CP asymmetries of B \to \phi K^0 and B \to \eta' K_S measured at B-factories appear to indicate discrepancies from the Standard Model expectation. Explanation of this possible anomaly is given in the…
The recently observed CP violation in B decay and $B$-$\ovar{B}$ mixing data put constraints on the mass of $W_R$ and the parameters of the right-handed current quark mixing matrix $V^R$ in $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R\times U(1)$ gauge model.…
We argue that the observation of a sizable direct CP asymmetry A_{CP} in the inclusive decays B -> X_s gamma would be a clean signal of New Physics. In the Standard Model, A_{CP} can be calculated reliably and is found to be below 1% in…
The observation of a sizable CP asymmetry in the inclusive decays B -> Xs gamma would be a clean signal of New Physics. In the Standard Model, this asymmetry is below 1 % in magnitude. In extensions of the Standard Model with new…
A left-right symmetric model with two Higgs bi-doublet is shown to be a consistent model for both spontaneous P and CP violation. The flavor changing neutral currents can be suppressed by the mechanism of approximate global U(1) family…
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…
The status of CP violation and the CKM matrix is reviewed. Direct CP violation in B decay has been established and the measurement of sin(2beta) in \psi K modes reached 5% accuracy. I discuss the implications of these, and of the possible…
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…
Direct CP violation in the hadronic charm decays provides a good testing ground for the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism in the Standard Model. Any significant deviations from the expectation would be indirect evidence of physics beyond the…
