I derive the formulae for the time + ​evolution of a neutral meson system and show how the mass and width + ​differences among the neutral meson eigenstates and the CP phase in mixing + are calculated in the + ​Standard Model. Special emphasis is laid on CP violation, which is + ​covered in detail for \kkm, \bbmd\ and \bbms. I explain the constraints + on the apex $(\ov \rho,\ov \eta)$ of the unitarity triangle implied by + ​$\e_K$,​ $\dm_{B_d}$,​ $\dm_{B_d}/​\dm_{B_s}$ and various mixing-induced + CP asymmetries such as $a_{\rm CP} (\ov B_d \to J/\psi K_{\rm + ​short})(t)$. + The impact of a future measurement of CP violation in flavour-specific + $B_d$ decays is also shown. + ​ + |**Ulrich Nierste** ​ | + |**     ​Lectures given at Helmholz International Summer School on Heavy Quark Physics, Dubna, Moscow Region, Russia, 11-21 Aug 2008. + Published in *Dubna 2008, Heavy quark physics (HQP08)* 1-38  **  | + | {{preprints:​2009:​ttp09-07.pdf|PDF}} {{preprints:​2009:​ttp09-07.ps|PostScript}} [[http://​arxiv.org/​abs/​0904.1869|arXiv]] ​  | + | |
