Kaon Spontaneous CP Violation Reevaluated

Abstract

The CP parameters ϵ\epsilon and ϵ/ϵ\epsilon'/\epsilon are calculated in the aspon model of spontaneous CP violation, a model which solves the strong CP problem. A new range for the scale of spontaneous breaking of CP is found. It is shown that ϵ/ϵ\epsilon'/\epsilon is suppressed by x2v2/(κ2sin5θC)5×103\sim x^2 v^2/(\kappa^2 \sin^5 \theta_C) \sim 5 \times 10^{-3} relative to the Standard Model. If experiment finds that ϵ/ϵ\epsilon'/\epsilon is 10410^{-4} or greater in magnitude, it will mean that the present approach to spontaneous CP violation is excluded.
