Abstract

We are a very promising decade for Flavor Physicsdue to the results from experiments whichrevealed and yet will reveal more details about the physics of short distances (10^{-19}-10^{-21} m). It is then essential the exchange of information between data of flavor from Belle II, Super-Flavour-Facility and collision high energy experiments of the Tevatron (D0 and CDF) and the LHC, which will allow us to investigate new physics models, in which the Standard Model is inside and the theory of flavor plays a fundamental role. So in this post-doctoral project, we will investigate possible links / information that can be extracted from Flavor physics in models of new physics as the Model Two Higgs doublet, MultiHiggs Models, Model Left-Right and Model 331. We will calculate the constraints to these models as a function some events considered `` key "to find physics effects such as CP violation in meson system B_ {s}, the recent announcement of CP violation in the decays D meson: D ^ {0} to K ^ {+} K ^{-} and D ^ {0} to \ pi ^ {+} \ pi ^{-} and other processes.
