In this seminar, I will first characterize the distributions through which CP violation can be probed. Building upon this background, I will then describe a systematic procedure for CP violation searches in spinless multibody decays. The complexity of multibody hadronic meson decays motivates such a model-independent approach, while they richness yields new opportunities for testing CP conservation. The additional ambiguities arising in polarized particles' decays will also be addressed. Finally, I will touch upon applications of the methods discussed beyond the realm of nonperturbative QCD.
