Four topics in theory of CP violation are reviewed. (a) CP violation in $B$ decays: We describe a new clean way of constraining the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle and how new CP violation in decay amplitudes can signal new…
Certain CP-odd momentum correlations in the production and subsequent decay of $\tau$ pairs in $e^+ e^-$ collisions are enhanced significantly when the $e^+$ and $e^-$ beams are longitudinally polarized. These may be used to probe the real…
Anomalous CP-odd W+W-Z couplings can give rise to a forward-backward asymmetry in the Z angular distribution in the e+e- centre-of-mass frame in the process e+e- -> nu nubar Z. Of the three CP-odd couplings possible, only the imaginary part…

The distributions of the single decay b-quarks and leptons from e^+e^- \to t\bar t assuming CP violation are reviewed. Different asymmetries, sensitive independently to CP violation in the production and in the decay, and sensitive to the…
The observation of a sizable direct CP asymmetry in the inclusive decays B -> X_s 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…
The sensitivity to the $Z^\prime$ couplings of the processes $e^+e^-\to l^+l^-,\bar{b}b$ and $\bar{c}c$ at the linear collider with $\sqrt{s}=500 GeV$ with initial beam polarization, for typical extended model examples are studied. To this…
We propose T-odd and CP-odd odd asymmetries in order to analyze the impact of CP violating phases in neutralino production and subsequent leptonic two-body decays. We present numerical results of these asymmetries and of the cross sections…
The sensitivity of optimal integrated observables to electroweak triple gauge couplings is investigated for the process e-e+ -> W-W+ -> 4 fermions at future linear colliders. By a suitable reparameterisation of the couplings we achieve that…
We study the anomalous $ZZ\gamma$ and $Z\gamma\gamma$ couplings that can be probed via $Z\gamma$ production at the $e^+ \, e^-$ colliders. We take Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) approach to examine these anomalous neutral…
In a first step, we explore the discovery and analysis potentials of the HERA collider, with and without polarized beams, in the search for electron-quark compositeness in the neutral current channel. Then we study the parity violating…
We study the determination of gamma from CP-violating observables in B -> pi+ pi- and B -> psi K_S. This determination requires theoretical input to one combination of hadronic parameters. We show that a mild assumption about this quantity…

New heavy neutral gauge bosons Z' are predicted by many models of physics beyond the Standard Model. It is quite possible that Z's are heavy enough to lie beyond the discovery reach of the CERN Large Hadron Collider LHC, in which case only…

We perform a complete simulation of the process e^+ e^- --> b b-bar nu nu-bar, where nu can be an electron, muon or tau neutrino, in the context of a general Higgs coupling to b quarks. We parametrize the H b b-bar coupling as m_b/v (a + i…
CP violation in top physics is reviewed. The Standard Model has negligible effects, consequently CP violation searches involving the top quark may constitute the best way to look for physics beyond the Standard Model. Non-standard sources…
