The presence of non-cyclic phases is revealed in the time evolution of mixed meson systems. Such phases are related to the parameter $z$ describing the $CPT$ violation; moreover, a non zero phase difference between particle and antiparticle…

We report the results on $D^0$-$\bar{D}^0$ mixing in the decays of $D^0\to K^+\pi^-$ and $D^0\to K_S^0\pi^+\pi^-$, and CP violation in $D^0\to\pi^0\pi^0$ using a data sample with an integrated luminosity of about 1~ab$^{-1}$ recorded with…
We review the experimental methods to measure mixing and time-dependent $C\!P$ violation in $D^0$ decays into two hadrons. While these phenomena are usually neglected for $D^0 \to K^- \pi^+$ decays, this approximation is not always…
In perturbative QCD approach, based on the first order of isospin symmetry breaking, we study the direct $CP$ violation in the decay of $\bar{B}_s^0\to\rho(\omega )K^{*0}\to {\pi^+}{\pi^-}K^{*0}$. An interesting mechanism is applied to…
We summarize the results of two papers in which we have studied CP violation in inclusive and exclusive decays b -> d e^+e^-. Two CP-violating effects are calculated: the partial rate asymmetry between b and \bar{b} decay, and the asymmetry…
We review basic aspects of the phenomenology of CP violation in the decays of $K$ and $B$ mesons. In particular we discuss the commonly used classification of CP violation -- CP violation in the mass matrix, in the interference of mixing…
Simulation studies are performed to assess the sensitivity of a model-independent analysis of the flavour-tagged decays $D^0 \to K^0_{\rm S}\pi^+\pi^-$ and $D^0 \to K^0_{\rm S}K^+K^-$ to mixing and CP violation. The analysis takes as input…
We search for CP violation in a sample of $4.7\times10^4$ Cabibbo-suppressed $D^0 \to K^+ K^- \pi^+ \pi^-$ decays. We use 470{\rm fb}^{-1} of data recorded by the BaBar detector at the PEPII asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ storage rings running…
We present a measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in B0 -> K0S pi0 decays based on 348 million Y(4S) -> BBbar events collected by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. We measure the…
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…
CP violation in the charm sector is highly sensitive to new physics due to its small predicted value within the standard model. By this work, we investigated the CP violation in the cascade decay process $D^0(t_1) \to \pi^0 K(t_2) \to…
B factories measure the CP violation parameter of B^0 Bbar^0 mixing and decay. Hadron colliders measure the dimuon charge asymmetry of an admixture of B hadrons. In this note we discuss a subtle point on how the CP violation parameter of…
Recent measurements of B^0 -> pi pi decays reveal two features that are in conflict with conventional calculations: the channel B^0 (Bbar^0) -> pi^+ pi^- shows a large direct CP-violating asymmetry, and the channel B^0 (B^0) -> pi^0 pi^0…
We review results from FNAL E791 concerning D0-D0bar mixing and CP violation in D meson decays. We have searched for mixing in semileptonic D0 -> K+\ell-\bar{\nu} decays and in hadronic D0 -> K+\pi- and D0 -> K+\pi-\pi+\pi- decays. We have…
Small CPT-violating effects are admissible in several theories beyond the Standard Model of interactions. We analyse experimental data obtained with neutral flavoured meson mixing and place bounds on the scale of such phenomena. The…
The existence of $D^0-\overline{D^0}$ mixing at a detectable level requires new physics, which effectively yields a $\Delta c = 2$ superweak interaction. In general this interaction may involve significant CP violation. For small values of…
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…
