This is a written version of a series of lectures aimed at graduate students in particle theory/string theory/particle experiment familiar with the basics of the Standard Model. We explain the many reasons for the interest in flavour…

We explain the many reasons for the interest in flavor physics. We describe flavor physics and the related CP violation within the Standard Model, and explain how the B-factories proved that the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism dominates the CP…

Our knowledge of quark-flavor physics and CP violation increased tremendously over the past five years. It is confirmed that the Standard Model correctly describes the dominant parts of the observed CP-violating and flavor-changing…

Several pieces of direct and indirect evidence now suggest that the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism plays a distinguished role for CP violation at the electroweak scale. This talk provides a general overview of CP violation in its various…

The starting point of these lectures is an introduction to the weak interactions of quarks and the Standard-Model description of CP violation, where the central role is played by the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix and the corresponding…

I report on the early history of Belle, which was almost entirely focused on testing the Kobayashi Maskawa mechanism for $CP$ violation that predicted large matter-antimatter asymmetries in certain $B$ meson decay modes. Results reported by…

In the near future, we will have the first significant experimental measurements of CP violation in B decays. These measurements will easily test crucial questions such as whether the Standard Model Kobayashi-Maskawa phase plays a dominant…

The starting point of these lectures is an introduction to the weak interactions of quarks and the Standard-Model description of CP violation, where the key element is the Cabibbo--Kobayashi--Maskawa matrix and the corresponding unitarity…

The phenomenon of CP violation is crucial to understand the asymmetry between matter and antimatter that exists in the Universe. Dramatic experimental progress has been made, in particular in measurements of the behaviour of particles…

This is a written version of a series of lectures aimed at graduate students in the field of (theoretical and experimental) high energy physics. The main topics covered are: (i) The flavor sector of the Standard Model and the…

We review recent suggestions for testing through B decays the flavor structure of CP violation in the Standard Model. Relative signs of CP asymmetries in U-spin related processes can by themselves test the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism in a…

These lectures present the phenomenology of B meson decays and their impact on our understanding of CP violation in the quark sector, with an emphasis on measurements made at the e+e- B factories. Some of the relevant theoretical ideas such…

Precision tests of the Kobayashi-Maskawa model of CP violation are discussed, pointing out possible signatures for other sources of CP violation and for new flavor-changing operators. The current status of the most accurate tests is…

Recent experimental results on CP violation in the study of B meson decays are reviewed. The emphasis is put on the recent measurements of the CP parameter sin2beta by the BABAR and BELLE experiments at asymmetric B factories, which…

This lecture provides a general overview of CP violation, emphasizing CP violation in flavour-violating interactions, such as due to the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism.

The focus of our considerations is the B-meson system, which will provide stringent tests of the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism of CP violation in this decade. After a classification of the main possible strategies to achieve this goal, we…

The BABAR and Belle experiments have made detailed studies of time-dependent CP violation in the B meson sector. If CPT is conserved, CP violation should imply the presence of time-reversal violation. Production of entangled neutral B…

Meson-antimeson transitions are flavor-changing neutral current processes in which the strangeness, charm, or beauty quantum number changes by two units. In the Standard Model (SM) these transitions originate from box diagrams with two W…

After the establishment of the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism of CP violation at the two B factories, possibilities to increase the integrated luminosity by two orders of magnitude have been investigated, since it seems to be the amount needed…
