We report the measurement of the direct $CP$ asymmetry in the radiative $bar{B}rightarrow X_{s+d}gamma$ decay using a data sample of $(772 pm 11)times 10^6$ $Bbar{B}$ pairs collected at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. The $CP$ asymmetry is measured as a function of the photon energy threshold. For $E^{rm{*}}_{gamma} geq 2.1~{rm{GeV}}$, where $E^{rm{*}}_{gamma}$ is the photon energy in the center-of-mass frame, we obtain $mathcal{A}_{CP}(bar{B}rightarrow X_{s+d}gamma)= (2.2 pm 3.9 pm 0.9) %$, consistent with the Standard Model prediction.

We describe a measurement of the direct CP asymmetry between inclusive b -> s gamma and bbar -> sbar gamma decays. This asymmetry is expected to be less than 0.01 in the Standard Model, but could be enhanced up to about 0.10 by new physics contributions. We use a sample of 89 million BB pairs recorded with the BaBar detector at PEP-II, from which we reconstruct a set of 12 exclusive b -> s gamma final states containing one charged or neutral kaon and one to three pions. We measure an asymmetry of A_CP(b -> s gamma) = 0.025 +/- 0.050(stat.) +/- 0.015(syst.), corresponding to an allowed range of -0.06 < A_CP(b -> s gamma) < +0.11 at 90% confidence level.
We show that in the Standard Model the parametrically leading (by a factor 1/alpha_s) contribution to the inclusive CP asymmetry in B->X_{s,d}+gamma decays arises from a long-distance effect in the interference of the electromagnetic dipole amplitude with the amplitude for an up-quark penguin transition accompanied by soft gluon emission. This contribution is governed by a single hadronic parameter Lambda_{17}^u related to a matrix elements of a non-local operator. In view of current experimental data, a future precision measurement of the flavor-averaged CP asymmetry in B->X_s+gamma will signal the presence of new physics only if a value below -2% is found. A cleaner probe of new physics is offered by the difference of the CP asymmetries in charged versus neutral B-meson decays.
We report on measurements of the time-dependent CP violating observables in $B^0_srightarrow D^{mp}_s K^{pm}$ decays using a dataset corresponding to 1.0 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collisions recorded with the LHCb detector. We find the CP violating observables $C_f=0.53pm0.25pm0.04$, $A^{DeltaGamma}_f=0.37pm0.42pm0.20$, $A^{DeltaGamma}_{bar{f}}=0.20pm0.41pm0.20$, $S_f=-1.09pm0.33pm0.08$, $S_{bar{f}}=-0.36pm0.34pm0.08$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. Using these observables together with a recent measurement of the $B^0_s$ mixing phase $-2beta_s$ leads to the first extraction of the CKM angle $gamma$ from $B^0_s rightarrow D^{mp}_s K^{pm}$ decays, finding $gamma$ = (115$_{-43}^{+28}$)$^circ$ modulo 180$^circ$ at 68% CL, where the error contains both statistical and systematic uncertainties.
The $CP$ violation observables $S$ and $C$ in the decay channel $B^0 !rightarrow D^+ D^-$ are determined from a sample of proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, collected by the LHCb experiment and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$. The observable $S$ describes $CP$ violation in the interference between mixing and the decay amplitude, and $C$ parametrizes direct $CP$ violation in the decay. The following values are obtained from a flavor-tagged, decay-time-dependent analysis: begin{align*} S &= -0.54 , ^{+0.17}_{-0.16} , text{(stat)} pm 0.05 , text{(syst)},, ewline C &= phantom{-}0.26 , ^{+0.18}_{-0.17} , text{(stat)} pm 0.02 , text{(syst)},. end{align*} These values provide evidence for $CP$ violation at a significance level of 4.0 standard deviations. The phase shift due to higher-order Standard Model corrections is constrained to a small value of begin{align*} Deltaphi = -0.16,^{+0.19}_{-0.21},text{rad},. end{align*}
A measurement of the $CP$ asymmetry in $B^+ rightarrow K^+ mu^+ mu^-$ decays is presented using $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0${,fb}^{-1}$, recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The measurement is performed in seven bins of $mu^+ mu^-$ invariant mass squared in the range ${0.05<q^{2}<22.00{mathrm{GeV^2/}c^4}}$, excluding the ${J/psi}$ and $psi{(2S)}$ resonance regions. Production and detection asymmetries are corrected for using the $B^+ rightarrow J/psi K^+$ decay as a control mode. Averaged over all the bins, the $CP$ asymmetry is found to be ${{cal A}_{CP} = 0.000pm 0.033{(stat.)} pm0.005 {(syst.)} pm 0.007{}(J/psi K^+)}$, where the third uncertainty is due to the $CP$ asymmetry of the control mode. This is consistent with the Standard Model prediction.
