Using their full Tevatron Run II data sets, the CDF and D0 Experiments present measurements of CP-violating asymmetries in the charmless decay of bottom baryons Lambda-b => p pi-, Lambda-b => p K-, and also for Bs0 => K- pi+, B0 => K+ pi-,…
We review the present status of the CKM matrix and we offer some visions of its future. After a brief presentation of the theoretical framework for weak decays we discuss the following topics: i) CKM matrix from tree level decays, ii)…
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…
We present an analysis of CPT violation in $B\to J/\psi K$ decays. A method of kaon regeneration is proposed to increase the $K_{S(L)}$ interference effects. With the time evolution of both neutral B and K mesons, we show that it is…
After a brief essay on the current state of particle physics and possible approaches to the opportunities before us, I summarize the contributions to the Third Workshop on Physics and Detectors for DAFNE that deal with CP Violation and Rare…
We consider CP violating effects in decays of the type $B\rightarrow k_i\gamma \rightarrow K\pi\gamma$, $K^*\pi\gamma$ and $K\rho\gamma$, where $k_i$ represents a strange meson resonance. We include in our calculations five of the low-lying…
We analyze the extraction of weak phases from CP violation in $B\to\pi^+\pi^-$ decays. We propose to determine the unitarity triangle $(\bar\rho,\bar\eta)$ by combining the information on mixing induced CP violation in $B\to\pi^+\pi^-$,…
Rare decays of B and K mesons and CP violations thereof are considered in SUSY models with S_3^3 flavor symmetry. SUSY contributions to epsilon_K and epsilon'/epsilon_K can be large, but not to B0 - B0 bar mixing because of strong…
We present an overview of a few recent results related to CP-violation from the Tevatron. First, we discuss a measurement of the dimuon charge asymmetry from D{\O}that extracts the CP-violation parameter of $\Bo$ mixing and decay. This is…
Phenomenological issues of the CP violation in the quark sector of the Standard Model are discussed. We consider quark mixing in the SM, standard and Wolfenstein parametrization of the $CKM$ mixing matrix and unitarity triangle. We discuss…
A phenomenological description of the neutral K and B meson systems is presented. The situation of the current CP violation experiments is described and a detailed discussion of their results is given, followed by some future prospects.
The study of $CP$ violation in hyperon transitions has a long history. In the early 2000s the HyperCP experiment made a major effort to seek $CP$-odd signals in the decay sequence $\Xi^-\to\Lambda \pi^-$ and $\Lambda\to p\pi^-$, which…
We review different definitions of the $\epsilon'$ parameter describing direct CP violation in neutral kaon decays, which was precisely measured in recent experiments, and point out the inconsistency of some of them due to a CPT constraint.…
Kaon physics provides a unique opportunity to identify new flavour and CP violating interactions beyond the Standard Model (SM). In the SM, implied by the hierarchical structure of the CKM matrix and the GIM mechanism, flavour changing…
Rare decays of K mesons are reviewed from the perspective of testing the ``ones'' and ``zeros'' of the standard model. Decays K^+ -> pi^+ nu anti-nu and K_L -> pi^0 nu anti-nu probe the one-loop effective Hamiltonian for s -> d nu anti-nu,…
CP violation is observed to date only in K^0 decays and is parameterizable by a single quantity epsilon. Because it is one of the least understood phenomena in the Standard Model and holds a clue to baryogenesis, it must be investigated…
The subject of 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 phases in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix can be tested through a variety of CP…
CP-violation is one of the least understood phenomena in our field. There are major experimental programs in all high energy laboratories around the world which will hopefully remedy this within the next decade. The study of CP-violating…
Using pp collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0 \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$, collected by LHCb in 2011 at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, we report the measurement of direct CP violation in $B^0_s \to K^-\pi^+$ decays,…
Starting from the time evolution of the C-odd $\bar{K}^0 K^0$ system, we analyze the asymmetries measurable at DAFNE and their implications on CP violation and on the possible tests of T and CPT symmetries. In particular the ratio…
