Abstract

This paper is concerned with the physics of meson decays to J/psi and phi.These decays have been observed at the Tevatron [7] and, in particular, should be copiously observed at the LHCb detector. This paper gives a concise presentation of the basic physics analysis and a general formalism for analyzing the signals of CP violation.
