Anomalous CP-odd W+W-Z couplings can give rise to a forward-backward asymmetry in the Z angular distribution in the e+e- centre-of-mass frame in the process e+e- -> nu nubar Z. Of the three CP-odd couplings possible, only the imaginary part…
We obtain analytical formulae for the cross section and the angular distributions of the b(bbar) quarks in the process e+e- -> t tbar, with t -> W+ b (tbar -> W- bbar) assuming CP violation in the \gamma t tbar and Z t tbar vertices. We…
Forward-backward (charge) asymmetry in the processes of $e^+e^-$ annihilation into a pair of charged pseudoscalar mesons is recalculated in the one-loop approximation. The exact dependence on the meson masses is taken into account. Results…

Forward-backward asymmetry in the process $e^+ e^- \rightarrow \gamma Z$ is proposed as a test for $CP$--violating anomalous $\gamma \gamma Z$ and $ \gamma Z Z$ couplings. Longitudinally polarized electron beams may be used to disentangle…
Having taken the QED radiative correction and one-loop weak corrections into account, we have computed the unpolarized forward-backward asymmetry in the process $e^+e^- -> \mu^+\mu^-$ at a very reasonable accuracy. Special attention to the…
We show how transverse beam polarization at $e^+e^-$ colliders can provide a novel means to search for CP violation by observing the distribution of a single final-state particle without measuring its spin. We suggest an azimuthal asymmetry…
We propose a CP-odd asymmetry in the supersymmetric process e^+e^- \to \chi^0_i \chi^0_j \to \chi^0_j \tau stau_k by means of the transverse \tau polarization. We calculate the asymmetry and cross sections at a future linear collider in the…
We have recently calculated the second-order QCD corrections to the forward-backward asymmetry in e+e- annihilation (hep-ph/9905424). Here we recall the results and compare them to others in the literature.
We study the forward-backward asymmetries in the decays of $K^+\to\pi^+\ell^+ \ell^-$ ($\ell=e$ and $\mu$) in the presence of scalar or tensor terms. We find that with the scalar (tensor) type interaction the asymmetry can be up to ${\cal…
CP-violating asymmetries in the processes e+e- -> t tbar and gamma gamma -> ttbar can provide information about CP-violating couplings of the top quark, whose presence would signal physics beyond the standard model. Work on studies of…
We study polarized cross-sections and forward-backward asymmetry for the process $e^+e-\to \tau^+\tau^-$ in the stabilized Randall-Sundrum scenario. It is shown that there is substantial deviation from the Standard Model predictions, both…
A study of the angular distributions of the processes $\Lambda_b \to {\Lambda} V(1^-)$ with $V ({J/\Psi,\rho}^0)$ is performed. Emphasis is put on the initial $\Lambda_b$ polarization and the polarization density-matrices are derived to…
We consider the most general gauge-invariant, chirality-conserving contact interactions in the process e +e- -> gamma Z, of the type proposed Abraham and Lampe, in order to explore the possibility of CP violation at future linear colliders…
We show that an anomalous CP-violating gamma-gamma-Z vertex gives rise to a novel asymmetry with transversely polarized electron and positron beams in the process e+e- -> gamma Z. This asymmetry, which is odd under naive time reversal, is…
The distributions of the single decay b-quarks and leptons from e^+e^- \to t\bar t assuming CP violation are reviewed. Different asymmetries, sensitive independently to CP violation in the production and in the decay, and sensitive to the…
We study the forward-backward and the CP-violating asymmetries (both time-independent and time-dependent) in rare semileptonic $B_d\to\rho^0 l^+l^-$, $B_s\to\phi l^+l^-$, and radiative leptonic $B_{d,s}\to \gamma l^+l^-$ decays and…
We present a complete description of angular distributions in the presence of new interactions for the process e+ e- -> Z gamma with polarized beams at future linear colliders, by considering the most general form-factors allowed by gauge…
We discuss the observability of CP-violating asymmetries in the process e+ e- -> X_1^0 X_2^0 -> X_1^0 X_1^0 l+ l-, with l = e,mu. We consider two examples of supersymmetric scenarios: (i) with decays X_2^0 -> l_R l -> X_1^0 l+ l-; (ii) with…
