Establishing CP violation in B0 (bar{B0}) --> l+ l- decays requires a measurement of polarization of the final lepton pair, or a precise determination of the B0 --> l+ l- and bar{B0} --> l+ l- rates. We first argue that if the amplitudes of…
CP-violating effects in decays of B mesons offer a wide spectrum of probes for testing the phase structure of the quark-flavour sector of the Standard Model. After a brief discussion of the picture emerging from the current LHC data, the…

We present a measurement of CP-violation parameters in the b->sq q penguin transitions (q=s,u,d) based on a 78/fb data sample collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB energy-asymmetric e+e- collider. One neutral…
The minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model allows for some of the coupling strengths to be complex parameters. The presence of such imaginary phases can lead to violations of time reversal invariance, which can be tested if…
In the framework of the left-right symmetric model the CP-parity violation has been studied in heavy Majorana neutrino decays $N\rightarrow e^{\mp} \mu^{\pm} n$. The numerical estimates of CP-asymmetry for different masses of neutrino and…
