Abstract

We investigate the future determination of the CKM matrix using theoretically clean quantities, such as B(K+→Π+νν), B(KL→Π0νν) or sin2β, sin2α as extracted from CP violation studies in B physics. The theoretical status of K→Πνν is briefly reviewed and their phenomenological potential is compared with that of CP asymmetries in B decays. We stress the unique opportunities provided by measuring the CP-violating rare decay KL→Π0νν. It is pointed out that this mode is likely to offer the most precise determination of Im V*tsVtd and the Jarlskog parameter JCP, the invariant measure of CP violation in the standard model.
