We study effects of CP violation in the associated production of a charged Higgs boson and a top quark at the LHC, $pp \to tH^\pm + X$. We calculate the CP violating asymmetry between the total cross section for $H^+$ and $H^-$ production…
CP violating asymmetries in both the production and the decays of $s$-channel neutral Higgs bosons at $\mu^+\mu^-$ colliders can be large. If the CP violation occurs in the muon-Higgs coupling, one observes a production asymmetry with…
We explore $\mathcal CP$-violation effects of Higgs-top interactions in the associated production of a Higgs boson with top-pair in the dileptonic decay modes of top-quark originating from proton proton collisions $pp \to t\bar{t}H \to (l^+…
The results of a first search for CP violation in the production and decay of top quark-antiquark (t t-bar) pairs are presented. The search is based on asymmetries in T-odd, triple-product correlation observables, where T is the…
We explore the CP violation in $B \to \phi K$ decay processes in the presence of the anomalous right-handed $\bar{t}sW$ and $\bar{t}bW$ couplings. The complex anomalous top coupling can be a source of the new CP violation and lead to a…
We discuss the prospects - within several models - for the observation of CP-violation (CPV) in top decays and production. The outlook looks best for t -> bW at the LHC (MSSM CPV), t -> b \tau \nu_\tau at TeV3, LHC and NLC (H^+ CPV), p…
We investigate the possibilities of searching for non-standard CP violation in $pp\to t\bar{t}X$ at multiple TeV collision energies. A general kinematic analysis of the underlying partonic production processes $gg\to t\bar{t}$ and…
In top-pair events where at least one of the tops decays semi-leptonically, the identification of the lepton charge allows to tag not only the top charge but also that of the subsequent b quark. In cases where the b also decays…
A striking manifestation of CP violation in the electroweak symmetry breaking sector would be the existence of neutral Higgs boson(s) with undefined CP parity. We analyse signatures of such a boson, with a mass of about 300 GeV or larger,…
We explore the CP violation in the charged Higgs production associated with a top quark at the LHC in the MSSM. The supersymmetric phases of gaugino masses and trilinear $A$ terms lead to a CP violating asymmetry of the cross section in the…
The contribution from the R parity violating interactions in the associated production of a top quark with a charm antiquark is examined for high energy leptonic colliders. We concentrate on the reactions associated with the semileptonic…
We provide a detailed, model-independent, study for CP violation effects due to the T-odd top-quark electric dipole moment (EDM) and weak dipole moment (WDM) in the top-quark pair production via $e^+e^-$ and two-photon annihilation at a…
Analytic expressions for the angular distributions of the $b$-quarks associated with single $t$-quark production in $p \bar p \to W^* \to t \bar b \to b \bar b W$ and of the leptons from the subsequent decay $W \to l\nu$ are obtained in the…
We study a decay rate asymmetry of the top quark in the supersymmetric standard model, taking into account the constraints from the electric dipole moments of the neutron and the electron. One CP-violating phase contained in the…
We study in a model-independent way anomalous CP-violating tbW effective couplings that might arise from new physics in the processes pp-> tW^- X and pp-> tbar W^+X, followed by semileptonic decay of t and tbar. These processes have a…
We discuss CP violation in top-antitop production at the LHC, induced by gluon fusion and final-state Higgs exchange. Results by Bernreuther and Brandenburg are confirmed and further reduced. The lepton energy asymmetry is studied in detail…
We report on an investigation of CP violation in (un)polarized $e^+e^-\to{\bar t}t$ resulting from an extended neutral Higgs sector or from the minimal SUSY extension of the Standard Model (SM). We consider c.m. energies from the ${\bar…
I present a study estimating the amount of CP violation present in the production of charged Higgs bosons due to the presence of complex trilinear scalar couplings. I compare the results of my study with previous results for the decay. I…
We study the potential of future lepton colliders to probe violation of the CP symmetry in the top quark sector. In certain extensions of the Standard Model, such as the two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM), sizeable anomalous top quark dipole…
The possibility of observing CP violation in the decays of Higgs particles into top-quark, W- and Z-boson pairs induced by heavy Majorana neutrinos is discussed. In the context of minimal "see-saw" models with interfamily mixings, we find…
