In this lecture, I will review results on the study of direct CP violation- where the violation occurs in a particle decay rather than in particle-anti particle mixing. Brief comments on rare decays, particularly those with a CP reach, will…
We report observations of CP violation in the decays B0 -> K+pi- and B0 -> pi+pi- in a sample of 383 million Y(4S) -> BBbar events. We find 4372 +/- 82 B0 -> K+pi- decays and measure the direct CP-violating charge asymmetry Akpi = -0.107…
Using 8.5M B-anti-B events recorded by the BABAR detector the yield of inclusive J/psi, the branching ratios of psi(2S) and chi_C1 are presented. Combining the charmonium state with either a K+,KS, K*+ or K*0 exclusive B decays are…
Phenomenological CP-violating parameters in decays of neutral B-mesons are discussed with special attention to the degree of their measurability. Important role of the sign of \Delta m_B is emphasized. We briefly describe how it could be…
A generic formalism is presented for the time-dependent or time-integrated decays of any coherent $P^{0}\bar{P}^{0}$ system ($P^{0} = K^{0}, D^{0}, B^{0}_{d}$, or $B^{0}_{s}$). To meet various possible measurements at asymmetric $B$…
We note that in decays of the type $B^0 \to P^0P^0X^0$, where $P^0$ and $X^0$ represent any CP eigenstate spin-0 neutral particles, the final state is a CP eigenstate. We consider the possibilities for studying time-dependent CP violation…
The inclusive decay rate b to ccs is enhanced considerably due to perturbative QCD corrections. We recalculate the dominant part of the NLO-QCD corrections, because they cannot be reconstructed from the literature and we give the full…
The present status for CP violation in hyperon decays is reviewed.
We report measurements of time-dependent decay rates for $B^0 \to D^{*\mp} \pi^\pm$ decays and extraction of CP violation parameters related to $\phi_3$. We use a partial reconstruction technique, whereby signal events are identified using…
The recent experimental results of CP violation in Bs decays other than in the J/psi phi final state are discussed. Included are the resonant components and $\phi_s$ determination in Bs -> J/psi pi+ pi-, CP asymmetries in Bs -> h+ h'-…
We briefly discuss measurements of CP violation in Bs --> J/psi phi decay. Both the phenomenology of Bs mixing and the importance of the measurement to searches for new physics, as well as technical details and issues with the analysis are…
We calculate the time dependence of B0->f decays (and analogously D0->f decays) and use this result to obtain expressions for the time dependence of: an untagged sample (B0->f and Bbar->f decays combined), a sample containing…
We review some recent results on b decays relevant to future CP violation studies. In particular, some new data on rare hadronic B decays will be presented, as well as inclusive searches for evidence for gluonic penguins and first hints of…
We review the status of the theory and phenomenology of heavy-quark symmetry, exclusive weak decays of $B$ mesons, inclusive decay rates and lifetimes of $b$ hadrons, and CP violation in $B$-meson decays.
We examine the possibility of extracting CP-violating terms in the decay K0 -> Pi0 e+ e- by studying the time evolution of a K0 beam. We focus on the interference region and search for clear effects. We find that experiments which average…
An investigation of CP violation was performed using a total of 24 candidates for B^0 -> J/psi K^0_S decay, with a purity of about 60%. These events were selected from 4.4 million hadronic Z^0 decays recorded by the OPAL detector at LEP. An…
Recently the branching ratios for $B^+\to K^+\bar K^0$ and $B^0 \to K^0 \bar K^0$ have been measured. Data indicate that the annihilation amplitudes in these decays are not zero. A non-zero annihilation amplitude plays an important role in…
In this talk I begin with some general discussion of the history of CP violation, then move on to aspects of a spontaneous CP violation model including the production of new particles at LHC, implications for B decay, generalized Cabibbo…
This talk discusses the theory of inclusive and exclusive radiative B decays, emphasizing the interplay of perturbative and non-perturbative effects and the importance CP and isospin asymmetries.
Using the generalized factorization approach, we calculate the CP asymmetries of charmless B decays. A number of decay channels has large CP asymmetries, which can be measured in the B factories.
