Description
The phenomenon of CP violation (the subtle disregard of physics for invariance under simultaneous particle-antiparticle and left-right reversal, observed so far only in decays of neutral kaons) is one of the very fundamental issues in particle physics. The availability of neutral B mesons - particles composed of a heavy beauty quark and a light down quark - provides a fresh arena for observing CP violation, opening up new tests of theories on the origin of this mysterious effect. CP violation in B decays is now the target of a number of major initiatives all around the world
