Abstract
We analyze the predictions for CP asymmetries in B-0-meson decays with in the framework of the supersymmetric standard model (SSM). Tt is poi nted out that owing to sizable new contributions to B-d(0)-B-d(0) and K-0-($) over bar K-$ over bar 0 mixings, the experimentally allowed ra nge for the CP-violating phase delta of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix may be different from the one obtained in the standard model (S M), This has important effects on the allowed values of CP asymmetries in Bo-meson decays and on their correlations, We calculate the ratio R of the SSM and the SM contributions to the B-d(0)-B-d(0) mixing para meter x(d) and discuss in detail the ranges of R and delta which are c onsistent with the experimental values of x(d) and the CP violation pa rameter epsilon for K-0-($) over bar K-$ over bar 0 mixing. The CP asy mmetries are predicted to have values different from the SM prediction s in sizable regions of parameter space, We also discuss the SSM predi ctions for B-s(0)-B-s(0) mixing.
