We report the latest results on CP violation measurements and the tantalizing hints of potential new physics effects obtained at the B factories.
$B$ physics plays important roles in searching for the new physics (NP) beyond the standard model (SM). Recently, some deviations between experimental data and SM predictions were reported, namely $R(D^{(*)})$, $P_5^\prime$ and…

The Standard Model predicts a large width difference in the $B_s$ system. New physics can contribute significantly to the {\it mass} difference. If this contribution is CP violating, this will always result in a reduction of the {\it width}…
