We argue that the observation of a sizable direct CP asymmetry A_{CP} in the inclusive decays B -> X_s gamma would be a clean signal of New Physics. In the Standard Model, A_{CP} can be calculated reliably and is found to be below 1% in…
We report a measurement of the CP violation parameters in b->c anti-c d decays. Mixing-induced CP violation involving this transition is studied using a sample of B0->J/psi pi0, D*+D*- and D*+-D-+ decays with a data set accumulated at the…
We present preliminary measurements of direct and indirect CP-violating asymmetries in the decays of neutral B mesons to pi+pi-pi0 and K+-pi-+pi0 final states dominated by the rho+- resonance, using a time-dependent maximum likelihood…
The observed violation of $A_{CP}(B^0 \to K^+ \pi^-) = A_{CP}(B^+ \to K^+ \pi^0)$ has been recently mentioned as a puzzle for the standard model. We point out that while this violation may be accounted for by a large color-suppressed tree…
We study a rate asymmetry in the inclusive decay $\Bsgamma$, assuming the supersymmetric standard model based on N=1 supergravity. A complex coefficient $A$ for scalar-trilinear couplings is the source of CP violation, which is contained in…
We have observed four fully reconstructed B0 -> D*+D*- candidates in 5.8 million Upsilon(4S) -> BBbar decays recorded with the CLEO detector. The background is estimated to be 0.31 +- 0.10 events. The probability that the background could…
We report improved measurements of time-dependent CP violation parameters for $B^0(\bar{B}^0) \to J/\psi \pi^0$ decay. This analysis is based on 535 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs accumulated at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle…
Based on an $e^+e^-$ collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 567$\,\rm{pb}^{-1}$ taken at the center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 4.6$ GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fraction of…
The observation of CP violation has been experimentally verified in numerous $B$ decays but is yet to be confirmed in final states with half-spin particles. We focus our attention on baryonic $B$-meson decays mediated dominantly through…
Using events in which one of two neutral B mesons from the decay of an Y(4S) meson is fully reconstructed, we determine parameters governing decay (\Delta\Gamma_d/\Gamma_d), CP and T violation (|q/p|), and CP and CPT violation (Rez,Imz).…
We present a preliminary measurement of CP-violating asymmetries in fully reconstructed $B^0{\to}D^{(*)\pm}\pi^{\mp}$ and $\B^0{\to}D^{\pm}\rho^{\mp}$ decays in approximately 110 million $\Upsilon(\rm 4S) \to B\bar{B}$ decays collected with…
We calculate the semi-inclusive processes B $\rightarrow X_{s} \eta_c$ and relate it to B $\rightarrow X_{s} \psi$ in next to leading order QCD, and show how it can be used to determine an accurate value of $f_{\eta_{c}}$. The exclusive…
A possibility to measure CP-violation in B0-decays by ATLAS experiment was investigated. With one year of running at luminosity 10^33 cm-2s-1 with a muon pt-trigger threshold of 20GeV and rapidity coverage eta<2.5 of the tracking detector…
We present preliminary results of several analyses searching for the effects of CP violation and mixing in the decay of $D^0$ mesons. We find no evidence of CP asymmetry in five different two-body decay modes of the $D^0$ to pairs of light…
We discuss the most important Physics thus far extracted from studies of B meson decays. Measurements of the four CP violating angles accessible in B decay are reviewed as well as direct CP violation. A detailed discussion of the…
I review the estimate of the CP violating asymmetry $A(\Lambda^0_-)$ within the standard model. I then review the estimate of the upper bound on this asymmetry that arises from measurements of CP violation in kaon decays.
We present measurements of the time-dependent CP-violation parameters S and C in B^0 --> eta' K^0 decays. The data sample corresponds to 384 million B Bar pairs produced by e^+ e^- annihilation at the Y(4S). The results are S = 0.58 +- 0.10…
CP violation in $B$ decays is reviewed in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. The present explanation of CP violation in terms of a phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix can be tested through a variety of CP asymmetries…
I discuss how b decays can be used to unravel new physics beyond the Standard Model. Decays second order in the weak interaction involving loops and CP violation are emphasized. This information is complementary to that obtainable with…
We make a systematic analysis of the effects of new physics in the B decay amplitudes on the CP asymmetries in neutral B decays. Although these are expected to be smaller than new physics effects on the mixing amplitude, they are easier to…
