These lectures give a brief description of CP violation in B and K meson decays with particular emphasize put on the determination of the CKM matrix. The following topics will be discussed: i) The CKM matrix, the unitarity triangle and…
A first study of CP violation in the decay modes $B^\pm\to [K^0_{\rm S} K^\pm \pi^\mp]_D h^\pm$ and $B^\pm\to [K^0_{\rm S} K^\mp \pi^\pm]_D h^\pm$, where $h$ labels a $K$ or $\pi$ meson and $D$ labels a $D^0$ or $\overline{D}^0$ meson, is…
We review theoretical and experimental results on CP violation summarizing the discussions in the working group on CP violation at the UK phenomenology workshop 2000 in Durham.
Although CP violation is predicted to be small in the Standard Model, there exists a continuing theoretical interest within the charm sector due to enhancements of CPV through new physics processes. We present an overview of the…
Within the standard model, CP-violating asymmetries A(\Lambda^0_-) and A(\Xi^-_-) have been estimated in short-distance calculations to occur at the level of a few times 10^{-5}. We show here that in this model the dispersive contribution…
We examine the constraints on the MNS lepton mixing matrix from the present and future experimental data of the neutrino oscillation and lepton number violation processes. We introduce a graphical representation of the CP violation phases…
CP violation has so far been observed in one system only, namely in the decays of neutral kaons, and it can still be described by a single real quantity corresponding to a superweak scenario. In these lectures I describe why limitations on…
We examine the CP-conserving (CPC) and CP-violating (CPV) effects of a general HZZ coupling through a study of the process H -> ZZ* -> 4 leptons at the LHC. We construct asymmetries that directly probe these couplings. Further, we present…
In this paper the most recent Tevatron results concerning CP violation in the B0s system are reviewed. These are the measurement of the direct CP asymmetry in the B0s->K-\pi+ decay performed by CDF and the measurement of \Delta\Gamma_s and…
In this decade, the exploration of CP violation is governed by the B-meson system, where non-leptonic decays play an outstanding role. To set the stage, we have first a look at the main strategies to circumvent the calculation of the…
We analyse CP-violating effects in Z -> 4 jet decays, assuming the presence of a CP-violating effective triple gluon coupling. We discuss the influence of this coupling on the decay width. Furthermore, we analyse different CP-odd…
We consider the gluon dipole penguin operator contributions to $\epsilon'/\epsilon$ and CP violation in hyperon decays. It has been proposed by Bertolini et al. that the contribution to $\epsilon'/\epsilon$ may be significant. We show that…
We study CP violating B decays in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with R-parity violation. We estimate how much R-parity violation modifies the SM predictions for CP asymmetries in B decays within the present bounds. The effects…
Direct CP violation can exist in untagged, neutral B-meson decays to certain self-conjugate, hadronic final states. It can occur if the resonances which appear therein permit the identification of distinct, CP-conjugate states -- in analogy…
We review different definitions of the $\epsilon'$ parameter describing direct CP violation in neutral kaon decays, which was precisely measured in recent experiments, and point out the inconsistency of some of them due to a CPT constraint.…
Direct CP violations in $B_{l4}$ decays ($B^\pm \to \pi^+\pi^- l^\pm {\nu}_l$) are investigated within the Standard Model (SM) and also in its extensions. In the decay processes, we include various excited states as intermediate states…
We investigate the CP violation in the decay process $\bar B_{s} \rightarrow \phi(\rho,\omega) P \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}P$ by considering the interference effects of $\phi\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$, $\rho\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$ and…
In this Ph.D. Thesis we analyze some CP-violating observables in Kaon decays. In Chapters 1-3 we describe the framework in which this Thesis has been developed and establish the definitions and notation. In Chapter 4 we study CP-violating…
A mechanism of generating CP violation through the imaginary part of the interference of two amplitudes is proposed. This mechanism has shown clear evidence in decays such as $B^\pm\to \pi^\pm\pi^+\pi^-$. The proposed mechanism is helpful…
We summarize the results of two papers in which we have studied CP violation in inclusive and exclusive decays b -> d e^+e^-. Two CP-violating effects are calculated: the partial rate asymmetry between b and \bar{b} decay, and the asymmetry…
