Abstract
I discuss several techniques for observing new physics using measurements of B -> V1 V2 decays. Within the standard model, all CP-violating triple-product correlations (TP's) involving light vector mesons are expected be very small or to vanish. However, these TP's can be large in models with new physics (NP). If a time-dependent angular analysis of B -> V1 V2 can be performed, there are numerous additional tests for NP in the decay amplitudes. Should a signal for NP be found, one can place constraints on the NP parameters.
