A search for $C!P$ violation in the $Lambda_b^0 to p pi^- pi^+ pi^-$ decay is performed using LHCb data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.6$,fb^{-1}$ collected in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13$,Tekern -0.1em V$. The analysis uses both triple product asymmetries and the unbinned energy test method. The highest significances of $C!P$ asymmetry are 2.9 standard deviations from triple product asymmetries and 3.0 standard deviations for the energy test method. Once the global $p$-value is considered, all results are consistent with no $C!P$ violation. Parity violation is observed at a significance of $5.5$ standard deviations for the triple product asymmetry method and $5.3$ standard deviations for the energy test method.

A search for $C!P$ violation in $Lambda^0_b to p K^-$ and $Lambda^0_b to p pi^-$ decays is presented using a sample of $pp$ collisions collected with the LHCb detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$. The $C!P$-violating asymmetries are measured to be $A_{mathrm{CP}}^{pK^-} = -0.020 pm 0.013pm 0.019$ and $A_{mathrm{CP}}^{ppi^-} = -0.035 pm 0.017 pm 0.020 $, and their difference $A_{mathrm{CP}}^{pK^-}-A_{mathrm{CP}}^{ppi^-} = 0.014 pm 0.022 pm 0.010$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. These are the most precise measurements of such asymmetries to date.
The decay $Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p} pi^-$ is observed using $pp$ collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of $sqrt{s}=$ 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 $fb^{-1}$. The ratio of branching fractions between $Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p} pi^-$ and $Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ pi^-$ decays is measured to be begin{equation*} frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p}pi^-)}{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ pi^-)} = 0.0540 pm 0.0023 pm 0.0032. end{equation*} Two resonant structures are observed in the $ Lambda_c^+ pi^-$ mass spectrum of the ${Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ poverline{p} pi^-}$ decays, corresponding to the $Sigma_c(2455)^0$ and $Sigma_c^{*}(2520)^0$ states. The ratios of branching fractions with respect to the decay $Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p} pi^-$ are begin{align*} frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Sigma_c^0 poverline{p})timesmathcal{B}(Sigma_c^0to Lambda_c^+ pi^-)}{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p}pi^-)} = 0.089pm0.015pm0.006, frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Sigma_c^{*0} poverline{p})timesmathcal{B}(Sigma_c^{*0}to Lambda_c^+ pi^-)}{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to Lambda_c^+ p overline{p}pi^-)} = 0.119pm0.020pm0.014. end{align*} In all of the above results, the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The phase space is also examined for the presence of dibaryon resonances. No evidence for such resonances is found.
Asymmetries in the time-dependent rates of $D^0 to K^+K^-$ and $D^0 to pi^+pi^-$ decays are measured in a $pp$ collision data sample collected with the LHCb detector during LHC Run 1, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3,mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. The asymmetries in effective decay widths between $D^0$ and $overline{D}^0$ decays, sensitive to indirect $CP$ violation, are measured to be $A_Gamma(K^+ K^-) = (-0.30 pm 0.32 pm 0.10)times 10^{-3}$ and $A_Gamma(pi^+pi^-) = (0.46 pm 0.58 pm 0.12)times 10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. These measurements show no evidence for $C!P$ violation and improve on the precision of the previous best measurements by nearly a factor of two.
We search for CP violation in neutral charm meson decays using a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 966 fb^-1 collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- asymmetric-energy collider. The asymmetry obtained in the rate of D^0 and D^0-bar decays to the pi^0 pi^0 final state, [-0.03+-0.64(stat)+-0.10(syst)]%, is consistent with no CP violation. This constitutes an order of magnitude improvement over the existing result. We also present an updated measurement of the CP asymmetry in the D^0 -> K_S pi^0 decay: A_{CP}(D^0 -> K_S pi^0) = [-0.21+-0.16(stat)+-0.07(syst)]%.
We have searched for the Cabibbo-suppressed decay $Lambda_c^+tophi ppi^0$ in $e^+e^-$ collisions using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 915 $rm fb^{-1}$. The data were collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ asymmetric-energy collider running at or near the $Upsilon(4S)$ and $Upsilon(5S)$ resonances. No significant signal is observed, and we set an upper limit on the branching fraction of $mathcal{B}(Lambda_c^+to phi ppi^0) <15.3times10^{-5}$ at 90% confidence level. The contribution for nonresonant $Lambda_c^+to K^+K^- ppi^0$ decays is found to be consistent with zero and the corresponding upper limit on its branching fraction is set to be $mathcal{B}(Lambda_c^+to K^+K^-ppi^0)_{rm NR} <6.3times10^{-5} $ at 90% confidence level. We also measure the branching fraction for the Cabibbo-favored decay $Lambda_c^+to K^-pi^+ppi^0$; the result is $mathcal{B}(Lambda_c^+to K^-pi^+ppi^0)= (4.42pm0.05, (rm stat.) pm 0.12, (rm syst.) pm 0.16, (mathcal{B}_{rm Norm}))%$, which is the most precise measurement to date. Finally, we have searched for an intermediate hidden-strangeness pentaquark decay $P^+_stophi p$. We see no evidence for this intermediate decay and set an upper limit on the product branching fraction of ${cal B}(Lambda_c^+to P^+_s pi^0)times {cal B}(P^+_stophi p) <8.3times 10^{-5}$ at 90% confidence level.
