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…

We report measurements of the branching fractions and CP asymmetries for B^+- -> eta h^+- (h = K or pi) and the observation of the decay B^0 -> eta K^0 from the final data sample of 772x10^6 BBbar pairs collected with the Belle detector at…
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…
Precision tests of the Kobayashi-Maskawa model of CP violation are discussed, pointing out possible signatures for other sources of CP violation and for new flavor-changing operators. The current status of the most accurate tests is…

We have searched for CP violation of charmed mesons in the decays $D\to K^0_S P$, where $D$ denotes $D^0$ and $D^+_{(s)}$, and $P$ denotes the pseudo-scalar mesons $\pi^+$, $K^+$, $\pi^0$, $\eta$, and $\eta'$. No evidence of CP violation in…
I review the many ways of obtaining information about the CKM matrix through CP violation in the $B$ system. I include direct and indirect CP violation, the role of penguins and isospin analysis, tagging, and $B\to DK$ decays. I also…
This series of five lectures describes aspects of CP violation, emphasizing its description within the standard electroweak model. After discussing the kaon system, the only place in which CP violation has been seen so far, we turn to the…
In this lecture I review the present status of CP violation in the Standard Model and some of its extensions and discuss ways to distinguish different models. Contents 1. Introduction 2. CP violation in the Standard Model 3. Test the…
$CP$ violation asymmetry is expected to be very small within the Standard Model. Observation of $CP$ violation in charm sector would hint towards New Physics. Time-reversal asymmetry is sensitive to $CPV$ via the $CPT$ Theorem, and is a…
We present an analysis of low energy CP violating observables in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We focus on the predictions of CP violation in b -> s transitions in the framework of a flavor blind MSSM, where the CKM…
The extraction of CKM-matrix-element information from hadronic B-decays generally suffers from discrete ambiguities, hampering the diagnosis of physics beyond the Standard Model. We show that a measurement of the rate asymmetry, which is…
The decay modes $B$ to $\pi\pi$, $\psi K_S$, $K^- D$, $\pi K$ and $\eta K$ are promising channels to study the unitarity triangle of the CP violating CKM matrix. In this paper I study the consequences of these measurements in the Weinberg…
A brief review of CP violation in the $B$-meson system and of strategies to determine the angles $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix is given. Both general aspects and some recent developments are…
Although CP-symmetry breaking has only been seen in neutral kaon decays, this mysterious phenomenon is expected to occur elsewhere. In this talk, how CP violation can arise in strange-baryon decays is briefly reviewed. The current status…
We present charm CP violation and mixing measurements at Belle. They are the first observation of $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing in $e^+e^-$ collisions from $D^0\rightarrow K^+\pi^-$ decays, the most precise mixing and indirect CP violation…

Recent evidence for direct CP violation in non-leptonic charm decays cannot be easily accommodated within the Standard Model (SM). On the other hand, it fits well in new physics models generating CP violating Delta C=1 chromomagnetic dipole…
