We consider the combined measurements of CP-averaged decay rates and direct CP asymmetries of $B^\pm\to K^\pm \ell^+ \ell^-$ and $B^\pm\to \pi^\pm \ell^+ \ell^-$ to probe (non-local) four-quark operator matrix element contributions to rare…

We report a study of the suppressed B meson decay B^- -> D K^- followed by D -> K^+ \pi^-, where D indicates a D^0 or \bar{D}^0 state. The two decay paths interfere and provide information on the CP-violating angle \phi_3. We use a data…

In the decay of Upsilon(4S, the decay time distribution of Upsilon(4S) -> f + X, where f is a final state that B^0 or B^0bar can decay to, is the sum of the decay time distributions of B^0 -> f and B^0bar -> f. Using this general rule, we…

We use the new symmetries in the heavy quark limit to calculate the exclusive B-decays $B \rightarrow K \psi ({\psi}^{\prime})$ and $B \rightarrow K^* \psi ({\psi}^{\prime})$. The estimated decay rates are compared with experimental values.…

We show that a large CP asymmetry in hyperon decays can be naturally realized in the framework of SUSY models. The possibility is implemented by the hermiticities of Yukawa and A matrices. And also, the observed values of $\epsilon$ and…

We present results from BABAR experiment for the measurement of inclusive and exclusive branching fractions of B mesons into final states containing $J/\psi$, $\psi(2S)$ and $\chi_c$. The contributions of CP even and odd amplitudes in the…

Our community has focused on two-body final states in $B$ & $D$ decays. The SM produces at least the leading source of CP violation in $B$ transitions, none has been established yet in charm decays. It is crucial to measure three- and…

Using the unitarity, SU(2) and $C$-invariance of hadronic interactions, the bounds on final state phases are derived. It is shown that values obtained for the final state phases relevant for the direct CP-asymmetries $A_{CP}(B^{0}\to…

The peculiar isospin properties of the b -> c cbar s current lead to a rich set of isospin relations for the B -> Dbar(*) D(*) K decays which are presented here. Recent high quality experimental data on the complete set of these decays (22…

Recent measurements of branching fractions and CP-violating partial-rate asymmetries for rare hadronic B-meson decays by the asymmetric-energy B-factory experiments, Belle and BaBar, are reviewed.

We present results on semileptonic B decays obtained with the BABAR detector. The large data set accumulated at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B-Factory allows a new measurement technique, where the hadronic decay of one B meson is fully…

We study CP violation in fermion pair decays of neutral boson particles with spin 0 or 1. We study a new asymmetry to measure CP violation in $\eta, K_L \rightarrow \mu^+\mu^-$ decays and discuss the possibility of measuring it…

Within the standard model we carry out an analysis of $CP$-violating observables in neutral $B$-meson decays at the $\Upsilon (4S)$ resonance. Both time-dependent and time-integrated $CP$ asymmetries are calculated, without special…

We investigate the effects of R-parity violation on the semileptonic decays of B-meson in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with explicit R-parity violation and discuss its physical implications. We find that the semileptonic decays…

The recent evidence of large direct CP violation in D0 decay at LHCb suggests that such CP studies may become an important avenue for understanding CP. In this paper, we make several suggestions to try to clarify the role of new physics in…

Correlations are shown to arise in nonidentical mixed-particle pairs like $K^o \bar K^o$ when observed in identical decay modes like $K_S K_S$ in multiparticle final states containing many partial waves. No enhancement is found in any…

We consider the interference of resonant amplitudes leading to the final state $K_S \pi^+ \pi^-$ in $D^0/\bar {D^0}$ decays. Each of these amplitudes consists of both Cabibbo allowed and doubly Cabibbo suppressed transitions. The role of…

Under flavor $SU(3)$ symmetry (SU(3)$_F$), the final-state particles in $B\to PPP$ decays ($P$ is a pseudoscalar meson) are treated as identical, and the $PPP$ must be in a fully-symmetric (FS) state, a fully-antisymmetric (FA) state, or in…

A variety of CP violating asymmetries in $B^0$ decays is predicted in the Standard Model in terms of CKM (Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa) complex phases. These phases can also be determined from rate measurements of certain $B^+$ and $B^-$…

The LHCb Collaboration has recently reported evidence for a CP asymmetry approaching the percent level in the difference between $D^0 \to \pi^+ \pi^-$ and $D^0 \to K^+ K^-$. We analyze this effect as if it is due to a penguin amplitude with…
