We review the physics of CP violation in B decays. After introducing the CKM matrix and how it causes CP violation, we cover three types of CP violation that can occur in B decays: CP violation in mixing, CP violation by mixing-decay…

Motivated by recent Belle measurement of the branching ratios $B^- \to \pi^+ \pi^- K^-$ and $B^- \to K^+ K^- K^-$ and $B^\pm \to \chi_{c0} K^\pm$, we investigate the CP violating asymmetry in the partial widths for the decays $B^- \to \pi^+…

In the presence of large New Physics contributions to loop-induced b->s transitions, sizable direct CP violation in B-> phi K decays is expected on general grounds. We compute explicitly CP-violating effects using QCD factorization and find…

I briefly review CP violation in the B system, concentrating on B -> pi K decays. I discuss how to deal with electroweak-penguin contributions to these decays using flavour SU(3). With these, I show that the entire unitarity triangle can be…

We study the T violating effects in the baryonic decays of $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda l^+l^- (l=e ,\mu)$ with polarized $\Lambda$. We show that the transverse $\Lambda$ polarizations in these baryonic decays could be as large as 50% in CP…

We explore the CP violation in $B \to \phi K$ decay processes in the presence of the anomalous right-handed $\bar{t}sW$ and $\bar{t}bW$ couplings. The complex anomalous top coupling can be a source of the new CP violation and lead to a…

In this talk, we describe T-violating triple-product correlations (TP's) in $B \to V_1 V_2$ decays. We point out that TP's in the SM are generally tiny. It is only in a few decays with excited vector mesons in the final state that…

Experimental data on rare $B$-meson decays indicate deviations from Standard Model predictions. In studies of these decays, possible new sources of CP violation are often neglected. We discuss CP violation in the rare $B$-meson decays $B\to…

In this talk I review how to search for CP violation in top-quark pair production and decay using T-odd correlations. I discuss two examples which illustrate many of the relevant features: CP violation in a heavy neutral Higgs boson; and CP…

We give a pedagogical review of the theory of CP violation with emphasis on the implications of recent experimental results. The review includes: (i) A detailed description of how CP violation arises in the Standard Model and in its…

We study the CP violating effects in the decay of $\eta\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$. We show that to have CP violation in the decay, one has to consider both linear and circular photon polarizations. In the standard model, the polarizations are…

CP violation in K and B decays is reviewed in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. In K decays, one is seeking first evidence for CP violation in direct $K\to \pi\pi$ decays. This would not give a precise quantitative test for the…

The effects of the peculiar CP conserving phases in unparticle propagators are explored. We find that the phases have a great impact on CP-violation. We adopt the decays $B_{d}\to \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $B_{d}\to \ell^{-}\ell^{+}$ as the…

We study the direct CP violation effect in the decay mode $B^+ \to \phi K^+$. This decay mode is dominated by the loop induced $\bar b \to \bar s s \bar s$ penguin diagram with a tiny contribution from annihilation diagram. Therefore, the…

We consider the possibility of observing CP violation in quasi-inclusive decays of the type $B^-\to K^- X$, $B^-\to K^{*-} X$, $\bar B^0\to K^- X$ and $\bar B^0\to K^{*-} X$, where $X$ does not contain strange quarks. We present estimates…

Combining the up-to-date experimental information on $B\to\pi K, \pi K^{\ast}$ and $\rho K$ decays, we revisit the decay rates and CP asymmetries of these decays within the framework of QCD factorization. Using an infrared finite gluon…

In the perturbative QCD framework, we use the quasi-two-body method to study the CP violations and branching ratios in the $\bar B_{s} \rightarrow [\phi(\rho^{0},\omega)\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}][K^{*0}\rightarrow K^{+}\pi^{-}]$ and $\bar…

The best place to search for direct CP violation is the already observed charmless $b\to s$ modes. In SM with FSI, $a_{CP}$ in $K\pi$ modes could be as large as 20-30% but differ in sign between $K^-\pi^+/K^-\pi^0$ and $\bar K^0 \pi^-$. We…

I review CP violation in the standard model (SM). I also describe the predictions for CP violation in the B system, along with signals for physics beyond the SM. I stress the numerous contributions of Pat O'Donnell to this subject. Finally,…

We present a model-independent analysis of rare B decays, $B \to K^{(*)} \nu \nu$. The effect of possible new physics is written in terms of dimension-6 four-fermi interactions. The lepton number violating scalar- and tensor-type…
