New physics beyond the Standard Model could appear at long baseline oscillation experiments as non-standard interactions (NSI) between neutrinos and matter. If so, determination of the CP-violating phase $\delta_{13}$ is ambiguous due to…

We present a recent analysis of epsilon'/epsilon in the 1/N_c expansion. We show that the 1/N_c corrections to the matrix element of Q_6 are large and positive, indicating a Delta I = 1/2 enhancement similar to the one of Q_1 and Q_2 which…

We consider the possibility that physics beyond the standard model contributes to the decays B -> V1 V2, where V1 and V2 are vector mesons. We show that a time-dependent angular analysis of B -> V1 V2 decays provides many tests for this new…

The study of CP violation in the B system allows us to perform quantitative tests of the CP symmetry in the Standard Model. Many precise measurements of the sides and angles of the Unitarity Triangle used to test the theory are made…

CP-violating asymmetries in charm provide a unique probe of physics beyond the Standard Model. I review several topics relevant to searches for CP-violation in charmed meson and baryon transitions.

The penguin loop-suppressed $B\to\phi K$ decays are highly sensitive to contributions of hypothetical heavy new particles. Particularly interesting probes for testing the Standard Model and revealing such phenomena are provided by CP…

We describe here a method for detecting physics beyond the standard model via CP violation in B->rho,pi decays. Using a Dalitz-plot analysis to obtain alpha, along with an analytical extraction of the various tree (T) and penguin (P)…

Using the idea of the penguin box expansion we find an analytic expression for epsilon'/epsilon in the Standard Model as a function of m_t, m_s(m_c) and two non-perturbative parameters B_6 and B_8. This formula includes next-to-leading…

The motivation most often cited in searches for D0-anti-D0 mixing and CP-violation in charm system lies with the possibility of observing a signal from New Physics which dominates that from the Standard Model. We review recent theoretical…

In supersymmetric theories with a motivated flavour structure, we investigate the possibility that an epsilon' parameter as large as the measured value be generated without conflicting with the bounds from electron and neutron electric…

In many extensions of the standard model, new physics is possible to contribute significantly to B^0_s-\bar{B}^0_s mixing. We show that the effect of new physics, both its phase information and its magnitude, can be isolated from…

Three years after the completion of the next-to-leading order calculation, the status of the theoretical estimates of $\epsilon'/\epsilon$ is reviewed. In spite of the theoretical progress, the prediction of $\epsilon'/\epsilon$ is still…

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…

I discuss the estimate of the CP-violating parameter eps'/eps based on hadronic matrix elements computed in the chiral quark model. This estimate suggested, before the current experimental results, that the favored value of eps'/eps in the…

We study the effects of new-physics contributions to B --> pi pi decays, which can be parametrized as four new complex quantities. A simple analysis is provided by utilizing the reparametrization invariance of the decay amplitudes. We find…
