Constraints used in the UT fit
Before the B-Factory era, the fit was done using the measurements of UT sides (through semileptonic decays and mixing processes of the B mesons) and the determination of direct CP violation in Kaon system (

). Click on the plots for details.
New determinations of UT angles and sides are now available, thanks to the results coming from the B-Factory experiments.
Constraints not yet used in the UT fit
Further bounds are available from rare B and K decays. They do not still have a strong impact on the global fit and they are not used at present.
