I will review the latest developments in determining the
CP-violating phases of the CKM matrix elements from measurements
by the BaBar and BELLE experiments at the high-luminosity B factories
(PEP-II and KEKB). The emphasis will be on the angle gamma/phi3
of the Unitarity Triangle, which is the relative phase
arg((-Vud Vub*)/(Vcd Vcb*)), or the CP-violating phase of the
b->u transition...

In this talk, experimental results of charm mixing and CP violation searches will be presented.
Analyses of $D^0 \rightarrow K^+ \pi^-$, $D^0 \rightarrow K^+ K^-, \pi^+ \pi^-$,
$D^0 \rightarrow K^{(\star) -} \ell^+ \nu$, $D^0 \rightarrow K^+ \pi^- \pi^0$,
$D^0 \rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$, $D^0 \rightarrow K^+ K^- \pi^0$, and
$D^0 \rightarrow K_s \pi^+ \pi^- / K^+ K^-$ have been...

We present recent measurements of B -> tau nu and B->D(*) tau nu decays
based on a data sample containing 657 millions of B-B-bar pairs collected with the Belle
detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. Experimental aspects
and theoretical implications are briefly discussed.

The B-factories have successfully exploited the unique advantages of the Upsilon(4S) resonance to study many aspects of the B_d and B_u mesons.
The Upsilon(10860) resonance, also known as Upsilon(5S), which is above mass threshold for the B_s and shares many of the same advantages, has been relatively unexplored. The Belle experiment has collected more than 120 fb-1 at the Upsilon(10860) and...

Results from the CLEO-c experiment have a significant impact on our understanding of and ability to control hadronic physics effects in the extraction of CKM matrix parameters, both via the validation of theoretical predictions and direct measurements of relevant phases. I will discuss its latest results on leptonic, semileptonic, and hadronic decays that are important for electroweak physics.
