With the nearing completion of the first-generation experiments at asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ colliders running at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance ("B-Factories") a new era of high luminosity machines is at the horizon. We report here on the plans…
Recent measurements of time dependent CP asymmetries at the B factories have led to substantial progress in our understanding of CP violation. In this article, I review some of these experimental results and discuss their implications in…
We update the profile of the CKM matrix. The apex (rhobar,etabar) of the Unitarity Triangle is given by means of a global fit. We propose to include therein sin2alpha from the CP-violating asymmetries in B0->rho+rho-, using isospin to…
An overview of the SuperB project and its physics programme is presented. There are many new physics sensitive observables that can be measured at a high luminosity e+e- collider operating near a centre of mass energy of ~10 GeV, and many…
Recent topics regarding CP violation in heavy meson systems are discussed. As an introduction, the status of the Unitarity Triangle fit and CP violation in B meson mixing are briefly reviewed. Two topics are covered in more detail: Penguin…
The B-meson system provides many strategies to perform stringent tests of the Standard-Model description of CP violation. In this brief review, we discuss implications of the currently available B-factory data on the angles alpha, beta and…
We report on our recent measurements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa CP-violating phase gamma and of related CP-asymmetries and branching fraction ratios. The measurements have been performed on samples of up to 465 million BBbar pairs…
The potential of a Super Flavor Factory (SFF) for searches of New Physics is reviewed. While very high luminosity B physics is assumed to be at the core of the program, its scope for extensive charm and tau studies are also emphasized. The…
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…
The present unitarity triangle fit, whose essential input is represented by the s to d and b to d transition processes, fully agrees with the SM. However, most of the phenomena involving b to s transitions are still largely unexplored and…
I share some personal reflections about the physics potential and the physics case that can be made for an e^+ e^- high-luminosity B-meson factory, as presented in my summary talk at the recent "Super B-Factory Workshop" jointly organized…
We study predictions for B-physics in a class of models, recently introduced, with a non-supersymmetric warped extra dimension. In these models few ($\sim 3$) TeV Kaluza-Klein masses are consistent with electroweak data due to bulk…
The highlights and conflicts at the B Factories are briefly reviewed. $CP$ violation was established in 2001 in $B^0 \to J/\psi K_S$ and related modes, which has now become a precision measurement of CP violation in $B^0$-$\bar B^0$ mixing.…
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 present some recent BABAR measurements of the magnitudes of the elements Vub and Vcb of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark-mixing matrix, and of the angles alpha and gamma of the unitary triangle of the standard model of the electroweak…
In these proceedings I briefly introduce the project prior to discussing the physics programme of the SuperB high luminosity e+e- collider. By measuring the golden matrix SuperB will be able to elucidate and constrain the nature of physics…
We present recent results of B and charm decays from the BaBar experiment. These results include searches for rare or forbidden charm decays, measurements of $|V_{ub}|$ from inclusive ${\bar B} \rightarrow X_u l {\bar \nu} $ decays,…
We summarize the physics case of a high-luminosity e+e- flavour factory collecting an integrated luminosity of 50-75 ab^(-1). Many New Physics sensitive measurements involving B and D mesons and tau leptons, unique to a Super Flavour…
The status of CP violation in $B^0\to \pi^+\pi^-$ and the determination of $\sin 2\phi_2 (\alpha)$ from the $B$ factories is described.
We present an updated measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. This result uses an additional sample of Upsilon(4S) decays collected in…
