Abstract

General techniques are introduced to expose new

CP

-nonconserving effects in cascade decays of

B

mesons. These effects are computed in the Kobayashi-Maskawa model. The

CP

asymmetries so obtained range from 2% to 20% if the parameters are in the favorable range

s_{3} < s_{2} ≲ 0.1

. Effects of this size should be observable in upcoming experiments.
