We construct a model based on the electroweak gauge group $\rm SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{B-L}$ augmented by an $S_3$ symmetry. We assign nontrivial $S_3$ transformation properties to the quarks and consequently we need two scalar…

We investigate the phase transition from hadron to quark matter in the general case without the assumption of chemical equilibrium. The effects of net strangeness on charge and isospin fractions, chemical potentials, and temperature are…

We study the interactions of quarks and antiquarks with the changing Higgs field during the electroweak phase transition, including quantum mechanical and some thermal effects, with the only source of CP violation being the known CKM phase.…

Starting from a weak basis in which the up (or down) quark matrix is diagonal, we obtain an exact set of equations for the quark mass matrix elements in terms of known observables. We make a numerical analysis of the down (up) quark mass…

These lectures give an introduction and the current status of flavour physics in the quark sector, with special attention to the CKM matrix and CP violation. We describe the measurements which contribute to the determination of the CKM…

Within a specific texture of the quark mass matrix the notion of a maximal violation of the $CP$ symmetry can be defined. The experimental constraints from weak decays imply that in reality one is close to the case of maximal $CP$…

This review contains an overview of strong interaction effects in weak decays starting with a historical introduction. It contains a short overview of semileptonic decays and their relevance for measuring CKM matrix elements. The main part…

Flavour changing neutral currents arise in the $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(4)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ extension of the standard model because anomaly cancellation among the fermion families requires one generation of quarks to transform differently from…

The 1973 Kobayashi Maskawa paper proposed a compelling link between Cabibbo's flavor-mixing scheme and CP violation but, since it required the existence of six quarks at a time when the physics community was happy with only three, it…

I discuss the extraction of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements under the Standard Model (SM) framework from a global fit combining observables that satisfy the double requirement of being precisely known both experimentally…

Heavy quark symmetry predicts the value of $B \rightarrow D$ and $B \rightarrow D^*$ transition matrix elements of the current $\bar c \gamma_\mu (1 - \gamma_5)b$, at zero recoil (where in the rest frame of the $B$ the $D$ or $D^*$ is also…

The possible different phases of cold quark matter in the presence of a finite magnetic field and chemical potential are obtained within the SU(3) NJL model for two parameter sets often used in the literature. Although the general pattern…

We present a new method for the determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark mixing matrix element $|V_{tb}|$ from electroweak loop corrections, in particular those affecting the process $Z\to b\bar{b}$. From a combined analysis of…

Noting the hierarchy between three mixing angles, $\theta_{2,3}={\cal O}(\theta_1^2)$, we present an exact form of the quark mixing matrix, replacing Wolfenstein's approximate form. In addition, we suggest to rotate the unitarity triangle,…

A review of the current status of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix V_CKM is presented. This paper contains an update of the results published in hep-ph/9711261. Values of the parameters entering into the constraints, which restrict the…

A method employing Bayesian statistics is used to incorporate recent experimental results on BdBdbar and BsBsbar mixing into a measurement of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements. The neutral B meson mixing results yield a slight…

We further investigate the probability that, weak CP phase originates in a certain geometry. We find that our postulation on weak CP Phase gives strict constraints on angle gamma in unitarity triangle DB and the element Vtd in…

We show that the Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa interaction matrix may be constructed with the quark masses.

We study the phase structures of charge neutral quark matter under the beta-equilibrium for a wide range of the quark-quark coupling strength within a four-Fermion model. A comprehensive and unified picture for the phase transitions from…

Corrected transition rates ($\mathcal{F}t^{0^+ \rightarrow 0^+}$) of $0^+ \rightarrow 0^+$ superallowed $\beta$ decays currently give the most precise value of $V_{ud}$, the dominant term of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing…
