It is shown that the data on the decay of neutral kaons may be explained without CP-violation.
We consider CP violating asymmetries that are induced by particle-antiparticle mixing in inclusive channels of neutral $B$ meson decay. Not only are the branching ratios sizable, at the 1% to 50% level, but some of those asymmetries are…
The role of B decays in the study of CP violation is reviewed. We treat the interactions and spectroscopy of the $b$ quark and then introduce CP violation in $B$ meson decays, including time-dependences, decays to CP eigenstates and…
CP-violating effects in decays of B mesons offer a wide spectrum of probes for testing the phase structure of the quark-flavour sector of the Standard Model. After a brief discussion of the picture emerging from the current LHC data, the…
We compute the inclusive decay rates $b \to D_s^-(D^{*-}_s) c$ including lowest order QCD corrections on the quark legs, and compare with existing data. Unlike the short distance QCD corrections, that are of higher order, these corrections…
We give a status report on inclusive rare B decays, highlighting recent developments and open problems. We focus on the decay modes $B \to X_{s,d} \gamma$, $ B \to X_s \ell^+\ell^-$ and $B \to X_s \nu \bar \nu$ and on their role in the…
The B^0_s meson is a bound state of b and s type quarks. A CP violation parameter, \beta_s, of that system is the analogue of the parameter \beta measured precisely at the B factories in B^0 decays. The standard model predicts, robustly and…
We review basic aspects of the phenomenology of CP violation in the decays of $K$ and $B$ mesons. In particular we discuss the commonly used classification of CP violation -- CP violation in the mass matrix, in the interference of mixing…
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 present a time-dependent analysis of CP violation in B0 -> rho pi decays based on a 140 1/fb data sample collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. We fully reconstruct one…
In this paper, we investigate the CP asymmetries ${\mathcal A}_{CP}^{pm}$ and ${\mathcal A}_{CP}^{mp}$ in $B_{c}^{\pm}\rightarrow B^{\pm} K^{0}+B^{\pm} {\bar{K}}^0\rightarrow B^{\pm} \pi^{\pm} e^{\mp} \nu_{e}$ and $B_{c}^{\pm}\rightarrow…
We consider various contributions to the nonresonant decay $B^\pm\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^\pm$, both of the long-distance and short-distance types with the former providing for most of the branching ratio, predicted to be…
We report a measurement of CP asymmetry parameters in the $b \to c\bar{c}d$-transition-induced decays $B^0(\bar{B^0}) \to J/\psi pi^0$. The analysis is based on a 140 fb$^{-1}$ data sample accumulated at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance by the…
We present a preliminary measurement of the CP-violating parameters in fully reconstructed B->D^(*)+-pi-+ and B->D^+-rho-+ decays in approximately 232 million Y(4S)->BBbar$ decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II…
CP violation in the field of $B$ physics is a crucial topic for exploring the quark sector and search for New Physics, both for theorists and experimentalists. CP violation manifests itself in various ways and in this presentation, we will…
The present status of CP violation in decays of neutral kaons is reviewed. In addition selected rare decays of both K and B mesons are discussed. The emphasis is in particular on observables that can be reliably calculated and thus offer…
CP violation is observed to date only in K^0 decays and is parameterizable by a single quantity epsilon. Because it is one of the least understood phenomena in the Standard Model and holds a clue to baryogenesis, it must be investigated…
The present status of the measurement of the inclusive semileptonic $B$ decays is reviewed. In particular the determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$ is discussed and some future prospects…
The inclusive production rate of phi mesons from the decay of b hadrons produced in Z0 decays was measured to be Br(b->phi+X) = 0.0282+-0.0013(stat.)+-0.0019(syst.), using data collected by the OPAL detector at LEP.
We study the possibility of measuring nonstandard CP violation effects through Dalitz plot analysis in B^\pm -> D_s^\pm D^0 pi^0 decays. The accuracy in the extraction of CP violating phases is analyzed by performing a Monte Carlo…
