We show that an angular analysis of B --> V1 V2 decays yields numerous tests for new physics in the decay amplitudes. Unlike direct CP asymmetries, many of these new-physics observables are nonzero even if the strong phase differences…

$C\!P$ violation in baryon decay processes is still undiscovered to date. We present a general analysis of the decay-angular-distributions and the corresponding $C\!P$ asymmetries in cascade decays of the type $\mathbb{H}\to R(\to ab) c$,…

We investigate the decay of $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda\nu\bar{\nu}$ with the polarized baryons of $\Lambda_b$ and $\Lambda$. With the most general hadronic form factors, we first study the decay branching ratio and then derive the longitudinal,…

Kinematical distributions of decay products of the top quark carry information on the polarisation of the top as well as on any possible new physics in the decay of the top quark. We construct observables in the form of asymmetries in the…
The analysis of $B \to \jpsi K^{\star}_{2}(1430)$ decay mode is complicated by the fact that close to the $J^{PC}=2^{++}$ meson $\Kstart(1430)$, there lie other $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ and $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ resonances, $K^{\star}(1410)$ and…
We present the first measurement of polarization and CP-violating asymmetries in $B_s^0$ decays into two light vector mesons, $B_s^0 \to \phi\phi$, and an improved determination of its branching ratio using 295 decays reconstructed in a…
We examine the T-odd transverse lepton and $\Lambda$ polarizations in the baryonic decays of $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda l^+l^- (l=e ,\mu)$ to study the T violating effects. We show that the lepton polarizations are suppressed but the $\Lambda$…
Motivated by the first observation of CP violation in $b$-baryon decays, the search for baryonic decays exhibiting large CP violation will be a primary focus in the coming years. We propose that significant CP-violating effects exist in the…
The BABAR and Belle experiments have made detailed studies of time-dependent CP violation in the B meson sector. If CPT is conserved, CP violation should imply the presence of time-reversal violation. Production of entangled neutral B…
