We report on the initial measurements of the angle gamma and the sum of angles 2 beta + gamma of the Unitarity Triangle. When compared with indirect information on the value of gamma from other measurements of CKM parameters, the…
Because the Bd -> J/psi Ks asymmetry determines only sin(2 beta), a discrete ambiguity in the true value of beta remains. This note reviews how the ambiguity can be removed. Extractions of the CKM angle alpha are discussed next. Some of the…
Recently, the Babar and Belle collaborations have reported their first measurements of the CP-violating asymmetry in Bd --> psi KS, and more precise results will follow soon. We discuss what a future evidence for small sin(2 beta) could…
We explore the would-be consequences of a low value of the CP-violating phase $\sin2\beta_{\psi K}$. The importance of a reference triangle obtained from measurements that are independent of $B$--$\bar B$ and $K$--$\bar K$ mixing is…
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…
The recent experimental results on CP violation related to the angles of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) unitarity triangle 2beta+gamma are summarized in these proceedings. These results are obtained with approximately 232 million…
We first review the methods for determining gamma from B->D K decays that appeared after CKM 2008. We then discuss the theoretical errors in gamma extraction. The errors due to neglected D-Dbar and B_{d,s}-Bbar_{d,s} mixing can be avoided…
Several methods have been devised to measure the weak phase gamma using decays of the type B+- --> D K+-, where it is assumed that there is no mixing in the D0-D0bar system. However, when using these methods to uncover new physics, one must…
The measurement of sin2beta by the BABAR experiment, where beta is one of the angles of the Unitarity Triangle, is described. Some prospects for the future of the measurement are also discussed.
We show that the CKM phase $2 \beta+\gamma$ can be extracted from measurement of the time dependent rates in the decays $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{(*)\pm} M^\mp$ and $B^0 \to D^{(*)\pm} M^\mp$, where $M=a_0$, $\pi(1300)$, $b_1$, $a_2$, $\pi_2$,…
The measurement of $\sin 2 \beta$ is discussed within and beyond the standard model. In the presence of new physics, the angle $\beta$ extracted from the global fit(denoted by $\beta^{SM}_{fit}$) and the one extracted from $B\to J/\psi K_S$…
The recent data on CP asymmetry in $B->J/\Psi K_S$ and muon g-2 are discussed in the framework of standard model and beyond. Possible new phase effects besides the CKM phase are discussed in the processes concerning CP violation in B decays…
The status of CP violation and the CKM matrix is reviewed. Direct CP violation in B decay has been established and the measurement of sin(2beta) in \psi K modes reached 5% accuracy. I discuss the implications of these, and of the possible…
The current experimental determination of the absolute values of the CKM elements indicates that 2|Vub / Vcb/ Vus| = (1-z) with z given by z = 0.19 +(-) 0.14. This fact implies that irrespective of the form of the quark Yukawa matrices, the…
The first part of this talk reviews recent developments in flavor physics that can be made without detailed understanding of hadronic physics, driven by the data. The error of sin(2beta) has shrunk below 5%, and the measurements of alpha…
I describe the experimental determination of the CKM angle beta from measurements of the decay time separation delta t between B0 mesons produced as B Bbar pairs in e+e- annihilation. The current results from leading and non-leading decay…
An overview of the observation of CP violation in the neutral B system, and the measurements of the CP violating asymmetry sin(2beta) with B to charmonium K^0_{S,L} events, performed by the BaBar and Belle experiments at the SLAC and KEK B…
We present several alternative techniques used by the BaBar Collaboration in order to measure the Unitarity Triangle angle gamma. We also present the results of two searches designed to improve the measurements of sin(2beta) using penguin B…
We propose a new method for measuring the CKM phase gamma using the partial rates for CP-tagged Bs decays. Such an experiment could be performed at a very high luminosity symmetric e+e- collider operating at the Upsilon(5S) resonance, where…
We point out that the measurement of just the two branching fractions \linebreak $B(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu)$ and $B(K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu)$ can in a theoretically clean manner determine $\sin 2\beta$ almost independently of $m_t$ and…
