Recent highlights in CP violation phenomena are reviewed. B-factory results imply that CP-violation phase in the CKM matrix is the dominant contributor to the observed CP violation in K and B-physics. Deviations from the predictions of the…
The Belle experiment has used several methods to measure or constrain the angles phi_1, phi_2, and phi_3 (or beta, alpha, and gamma) of the CKM unitarity triangle. The results are sin(2phi_1) = 0.728 \pm 0.056 (stat) \pm 0.023 (syst) or…
The phenomenon of CP violation and strategies for extracting the angles of the unitarity triangle are reviewed. Special emphasis is given to the B-meson system, as it plays an outstanding role to test the Standard Model description of CP…
The mixing-induced CP asymmetries in $B_d \to J/\psi K_S$ and $B_s \to J/\psi \phi$ are essential to detect or constrain new physics in the $B_d\! - \overline{\!B}{}_d$ and $B_s\! - \overline{\!B}{}_s$ mixing amplitudes, respectively. To…
We discuss some aspects of the search for CP asymmetry in the three body B decays, revealed through the interference among neighbor resonances in the Dalitz plot. We propose a competitive method to extract the CKM $\gamma$ angle combining…
We re-examine a recent proposal for obtaining \beta using the measurements of the b -> d penguin decays B_d(t) -> K^0 \kbar and B_s(t) -> \phi K_S, along with a theoretical assumption. We show that there are in fact three assumptions one…
As we pointed out recently, the neutral decays $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$ and $B_d\to\pi^0K$ may provide non-trivial bounds on the CKM angle $\gamma$. In this paper, we reconsider this approach in the light of recent CLEO data, which look very…
Major new experimental efforts on detecting CP violation in $B$ decays will very soon go on the air. Recent developments suggest that final state interaction phases in exclusive decays of $B$ are unlikely to be small indicating the…
We present measurements related to the CKM angle beta from BABAR based on 82 or ~115 fb-1 data samples collected at the PEP-II e+e- asymmetric B Factory collider. A new method allowing to measure the sign of cos(2.beta) with B0->J/Psi"K*0"…

Based on the most recent data in charmless B decays including the very recently reported large direct CP violations, it is shown that the weak phase gamma can well be extracted without two-fold ambiguity even only from two decay modes…
Using a modified perturbative approach that includes the Sudakov resummation and transverse degrees of freedom we analyze the penguin-induced $B^{-} \to \pi^{-}\phi$ decay by applying the next-to-leading order effective weak Hamiltonian.…

We present a new technique to extract information on the Unitarity Triangle from the study of B -> K pi pi Dalitz plots. Using the sensitivity of Dalitz analyses to the absolute values and the phases of decay amplitudes and isospin…
In this time of transition to a new generation of quark flavor experiments we review both the theoretical and the experimental progress on the determination of unitarity triangle angles from penguin-dominated B decays. This summarizes the…
Penguin contributions, being not negligible in general, can hide the information on the CKM angle alpha coming from the measurement of the time-dependent B0(t) -> pi+pi- CP-asymmetry. Nevertheless, we show that this information can be…
Quantum coherence plays a crucial role in the dynamics of neutral meson systems, aiding in the extraction of various Standard Model parameters. However, real physical systems always interact with their surroundings, which causes…
In this paper penguin contribution has not been included, so it is not suitable to be published.
A measurement of the CKM angle $\gamma$ is performed by applying a novel, unbinned, model-independent approach to datasets of electron-positron collisions collected by the BESIII experiment and proton-proton collisions by the LHCb…
We discuss a method to extract the CKM $\gamma$ angle combining Dalitz plot analysis of $B^{\pm} \to K^{\pm} \pi^+ \pi^-$ and untagged $B^0$, $\bar B^0 \to K_s \pi^+ \pi^-$. The method also allows obtaining the ratio and phase difference…
