The mechanism of CP violation remains one of the puzzles in particle physics. Key to understanding this phenomenon are nonleptonic $B$ decays, especially multibody decays which exhibit large CP asymmetries in various regions of phase space.…
The experimental search for CP violation in paramagnetic atomic and molecular systems has made impressive progress in recent years. This has led to strong upper limits on the electron electric dipole moment. The same measurements can also…
We investigate under which circumstances one can show the existence of leptonic CP violation with the help of a positive or negative signal in neutrinoless double beta decay. The possibilities of cancellations are investigated for special…
Measurements of $CP$-violating observables in $B$ meson decays can be used to determine the angles of the Unitarity Triangle and hence probe for manifestations of New Physics beyond the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa Standard Model paradigm. Of…
The $\cp$ violating asymmetry $A(\Lambda^0_-)$ has been estimated to occur at the level of a few times $10^{-5}$ within the minimal standard model. The experiment E871 expects to reach a sensitivity of $10^{-4}$ to the asymmetry…
The subject of CP violation in B decays is reviewed in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. The present explanation of CP violation in terms of phases in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix can be tested through a variety of CP…
Non-leptonic B_s decays into CP eigenstates that are caused by \bar b -> \bar cc\bar s quark-level transitions, such as B_s -> D_s^+D^-_s, J/psi eta^(') or J/psi phi, provide a powerful tool to search for ``new physics'', as the…
We propose a new way for determining the CP violation angle $\gamma$ without any hadronic uncertainty. The suggested method is to use the two triangles formed by the decay amplitudes of $B^\pm\to (D^0,\bar D^0,D_{CP}^0)…
CP violations in B meson decays at hadron colliders are reviewed. In particular I examine: $B^0-\bar{B^0}$ mixing and oscillations within Standard Model and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa picture for CP violations; $B^0$ decays into CP…
I review the predictions and expectations of the CKM model for CP violation in both the $K^0-\bar K^0$ and $B^0-\bar B^0$ systems. A brief discussion of CP violation in charged $K$- and $B$-decays is also included, as well as some remarks…
Using data from the FOCUS (E831) experiment at Fermilab, we present a new measurement of the weak decay-asymmetry parameter alpha(Lambdac) in Lambdac --> Lambda pi decay. Comparing particle with antiparticle decays, we obtain the first…
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,…
The CP properties in hyperon decays are briefly reviewed. We discuss the general phenomenology and define CP odd observables in hyperon decays. With these observables, we discuss the predictions of some models and their observational…
We find using the minimal left-right symmetric model that the presence of leptonic CP violation can radiatively generate a strong CP phase at the one-loop level itself, which can be beyond the current bounds established by the neutron…
We discuss the prospects - within several models - for the observation of CP-violation (CPV) in top decays and production. The outlook looks best for t -> bW at the LHC (MSSM CPV), t -> b \tau \nu_\tau at TeV3, LHC and NLC (H^+ CPV), p…

We explore the possibility of CP violation in baryonic $\Lambda_b\to(\Lambda_c^+, p^+)\pi^+\mu^-\mu^-$ decays which are mediated by two Majorana sterile neutrino and are $|\Delta L|=2$ lepton number violating processes. Appreciable CP…
The determination of the mixing induced CP-violating asymmetry in decays such as $B^0_s \to J/\psi \phi$ is one of the key goals of the LHCb experiment. Its value is predicted to be very small in the Standard Model but can be significantly…
