Taking into account the recent measurements of the branching ratios and CP asymmetries in the $B \to \pi\pi$ decays by the BABAR and BELLE collaborations, an amplitude analysis based on the isospin symmetry is reported. These data allow to…
When studying B decays within the Standard Model, it is customary to use the unitarity of the CKM matrix in order to write the decay amplitudes in terms of only two of the three weak phases which appear in the various diagrams.…
The recently reported measurements of the CP asymmetry a(psi K) by the BABAR and BELLE collaborations are in good agreement with the standard model prediction. With the anticipated precision in a(psi K) at the B factories and hadron…
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)…
We analyze the impact of the forthcoming CP-violating observables in the $B_s\to K^+ K^-$ system, combined with the precise measurement of $\sin2\beta$ , in the extraction of the CKM matrix. Computing the penguin parameters $(r, \theta)$…
We present results of a unitary triangle fit based on the scan method. This frequentist approach employs Gaussian uncertainties for experimental quantities, but makes no arbitrary assumptions about the distribution of theoretical errors.…
We update the constraints on the parameters of the quark flavour mixing matrix $V_{CKM}$ in the standard model using the latest experimental and theoretical results as input. We present the 95$\%$ C.L. allowed region of the unitarity…
The CKM paradigm has been proven to be successful in explaining the flavour structure of the standard model and the non-trivial imaginary phase of the CKM matrix is the only know source of CP-violation. B-meson decays allow us to precisely…
A small upper-bound is obtained for the CP phase $\delta$ in a CKM matrix, $|\sin\delta| \le 0.44$ based on CP independent data on $|V_{ub}/V_{cb}|$ alone. Potential inconsistencies with the CKM model in existing data which need a theory…
In this article I report on new and updated measurements of the CP-violating parameter beta (phi_1), which is related to the phase of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark-mixing matrix of the electroweak interaction. Over the past few…
We review the salient features of a comparative study of the profile of the CKM unitarity triangle, and the resulting CP-violating phases $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$ in B decays, in the standard model and in several variants of the…
We report on $CP$ violation measurements at Belle and Belle II, focusing on improving the precision of observables sensitive to the Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix parameters. We present recent measurements of the CKM unitarity angle…
The study of charmless two-body decays of B mesons is currently one of the hottest topics in B physics. QCD factorization provides the theoretical framework for a systematic analysis of such decays. A global fit to B->pi K,pi pi branching…
I review the many ways of obtaining information about the CKM matrix through CP violation in the $B$ system. I include direct and indirect CP violation, the role of penguins and isospin analysis, tagging, and $B\to DK$ decays. I also…
These lectures give a brief description of CP violation in B and K meson decays with particular emphasize put on the determination of the CKM matrix. The following topics will be discussed: i) The CKM matrix, the unitarity triangle and…
We give an overview of direct determinations of the angles of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix, using CP-violating effects in B-meson decays. After a discussion of B --> pi K modes, which can be described efficiently through allowed…
In the framework of QCD factorization, we study $B^{+(0)} \to \eta' K^{+(0)}$ decays. In order to more reliably determine the phenomenological parameters $X_H$ and $X_A$ arising from end-point divergences in the hard spectator scattering…
One important task in the field of flavor physics is to over-constrain the CKM matrix. To best extract CKM matrix elements, we need inputs from both experimental data and theoretical calculations. Latest knowledge about the CKM matrix shows…
We analyze the CP asymmetries of $B\to \phi K$ and $B\to \eta^{(\prime)} K$ modes in the QCD improved factorization framework. For our calculation we use the phenomenological parameters predetermined from the global fit for the available…
Motivated by recent CELO measurements and the progress of the theory of B decays, we investigate $B\to P V(P=\pi,K. V= K^{*},\rho,\omega)$ decay modes in the framework of QCD improved factorization. We find that all the measured branching…
