The LHCb collaboration has recently observed the rare hyperon decay $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$. It can also measure the corresponding antihyperon channel with comparable precision and is thus in a position to extract information on $CP$…
In this proceeding, I discuss results from the BaBar and Belle collaborations for searches of direct CP violation in the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $\D^\pm\to K^+K^-\pi^\pm$ from $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected at a center-of-mass…
We consider $B^{\pm,0} \to \rho^0(\omega)h^{\pm,0}$, where $\rho^0(\omega)$ decays to $\pi^+\pi^-$ and $h$ is any hadronic final state, such as $\pi$ or $K$. We find a large direct CP asymmetry in B-meson decays via $\rho \omega$…
In a general two-scalar-doublet model without fermions, there is a unique source of CP violation, $ J_1 $, in the gauge interactions of the scalars. It arises in the mixing of the three neutral physical scalars $ X_1 $, $ X_2 $ and $ X_3 $.…
In the standard model, we study CP violating rate asymmetries in the decay b->d l^+ l^- when one of the leptons is polarised. We find an asymmetry of (5 -- 15)% in the polarised decay spectrum which is comparable to known results for the…
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…
The decay width, forward-backward asymmetry and lepton longitudinal and transversal polarization for the exclusive K^* -> l^+ l^- decay in a two Higgs doublet model are computed. It is shown that all these quantities are very effective…
The CP-violating asymmetries in the exclusive decay B->K^*l^+l^- (l=e,mu,tau) are predicted to be exceedingly small in the standard model (SM), thereby offering an opportunity to assess various new-physics scenarios. We derive quantitative…
We present a measurement of the branching fraction and fraction of longitudinal polarization of $B^0 \to \rho^+ \rho^-$ decays, which have two $\pi^0$'s in the final state. We also measure time-dependent {\it CP} violation parameters for…

We study Higgs boson decays in the minimal supersymmetric standard model where the tree-level CP invariance of the Higgs potential is explicitly broken by loop effects of soft CP-violating Yukawa interactions related to scalar quarks of the…
CP asymmetry in some exclusive decays of charged B meson are calculated in a Bethe-Salpeter approach. Hadronic final state interactions are ignored. Complex decay amplitudes are assumed to arise entirely from perturbative quark-antiquark…

We analyze the puzzle of the dimuon CP asymmetry in B_s decays in two Higgs doublet models. We show that the flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) induced by the Higgs coupling in a type III two Higgs doublet model provides a solution to…
CP violation from physics beyond the Standard Model is investigated in $B_{l4}$ decays: $B\to D\pi l\bar{\nu}_l$. The semileptonic $B$-meson decay to a $D$-meson with an emission of single pion is analyzed with heavy quark effective theory…
