In perturbative QCD approach, based on the first order of isospin symmetry breaking, we study the direct $CP$ violation in the decay of $\bar{B}_s^0\to\rho(\omega )K^{*0}\to {\pi^+}{\pi^-}K^{*0}$. An interesting mechanism is applied to…

We present preliminary measurements of the CP asymmetry parameters in B^0 -> K^0_S K^0_S K^0_S decays, reconstructing two of the K^0_S into pi^+pi^- and one into pi^0pi^0. In a sample of 227M $B\bar B$ pairs collected by the BABAR detector…

CP asymmetries have been measured recently by the LHCb collaboration in three-body $B^+$ decays to final states involving charged pions and kaons. Large asymmetries with opposite signs at a level of about 60% have been observed in $B^\pm\to…

We study the hadronic decay modes $B^{\pm(0)} \to f_0(980) K^{\pm(0)} $, involving a scalar and a pseudoscalar meson in the final state. These decay modes are dominated by the loop induced $ b \to s \bar q q(q=s,u,d)$ penguins along with a…

Motivated by the $2.8\sigma$ discrepancy observed between the BaBar measurement and the Standard Model prediction of the CP asymmetry in $\tau\to K_S\pi\nu_\tau$ decays, as well as the prospects of future measurements at Belle II, we…

We study the direct CP violation in $B^\pm\to p\bar p K^{(*)\pm}$ decays in the standard model. We point out that these three-body baryonic B decays can be important tools for detecting the direct CP violation in the charged $B$ system, in…

We analyze the decay B0-->K+ pi- pi0 with a sample of 454 million B Bbar events collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC, and extract the complex amplitudes of seven interfering resonances over the…

We devise tests for a new physics origin of the recently measured direct CP violation in singly Cabibbo suppressed D decays. The tests take the form of sum rules for the CP asymmetries in various D decays. They are based on the fact that…

In the framework of R-parity violating (\rpv) supersymmetry, we try to find a consistent explanation for both recently measured CP asymmetry in B^0 --> phi K_S decay and the large branching ratio of B^{+/-} --> eta' K^{+/-} decay, which are…

We report observations of CP violation in the decays B0 -> K+pi- and B0 -> pi+pi- in a sample of 383 million Y(4S) -> BBbar events. We find 4372 +/- 82 B0 -> K+pi- decays and measure the direct CP-violating charge asymmetry Akpi = -0.107…

We describe a measurement of the direct CP asymmetry between inclusive b -> s gamma and bbar -> sbar gamma decays. This asymmetry is expected to be less than 0.01 in the Standard Model, but could be enhanced up to about 0.10 by new physics…

Simple flavor symmetry argument without QCD dynamics shows why CP violation observed in neutral $B$ to $K\pi$ decays is absent in charged B decays where tree diagram final state has two $u$ quarks satisfying Pauli principle. Entanglement…

We have measured the CP asymmetry A_CP = [BF(b -> s gamma) - BF(bbar -> sbar gamma)]/ [BF(b -> s gamma) + BF(bbar -> sbar gamma)] to be A_CP = (-0.079 +/- 0.108 +/- 0.022)(1.0 +/- 0.030), implying that, at 90% confidence level, A_CP lies…

Currently there are New Physics hints in mixing-induced CP violation S(phi K0), S(pi0 K0) < S(J/psi K0), unequal direct CP violation A(K+ pi-) differs A(K+ pi0), and maybe even in measured S(J/psi K0) vs prediction from global fit to other…

Recent improvements to the limit of Delta M_{B_s} imply that pure superweak theories, while not excluded, no longer provide a good fit to the data. A class of general superweak theories is introduced in which all flavor changing…

Complex flavour couplings (off-diagonal mass terms) in the squark sector of supersymmetric theories may drastically alter both the rate and the CP-violating asymmetry of certain B-meson decays. We consider the effects of couplings that…
