Schwinger operator method is applied for studying CP-odd pure gluonic effective Lagrangian in the Standard Model at three-loop level. The induced $\theta$-term vanishes by the same reasons as EDMs of quark and W-boson to two-loop…
CP non-invariance is strongly limited by present experiments, while extra sources of CP-violation are needed for a successful baryogenesis. Motivated by those observations we consider a model which predicts spontaneous violation of CP at…
Using the well-known low-energy effective Lagrangian of QCD --valid for small (non-vanishing) quark masses and a large number of colors-- we study in detail the regions of parameter space where $CP$ is spontaneously broken/unbroken for a…
We review the present status of CP violating problem in supersymmetric extensions of the standard model. We analyze the constraints imposed by the experimental limits of the electron, neutron, and mercury electric dipole moments on the…
Precision CP violation measurements in rare hadronic B decays could provide clean signatures of parity symmetric new physics, implying the existence of SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R x U(1)_{B-L} x P symmetry at high energies. New contributions to the…
In the world with axion the precise measurement of gravitational force and check of the equivalence principle at small distances, $\lambda\sim 1cm$ and less, could provide an additional test of CP symmetry. Using the chiral approach, we…
A model independent study of non-Standard Model CP-violating processes is presented with emphasis on the observability of the effects.
We propose a minimal set of weak-basis invariants in an extension of the SM where one up-type isosinglet vector-like quark is introduced, which allows us to obtain all the physical content of the CKM matrix. We present CP-odd invariants of…
The unsuppressed CP violation in QCD is a problem in the standard model. If we have some mechanism to guarantee real determinants of the quark mass matrices, the vanishing physical vacuum angle $\bar \theta$ indicates the CP invariance at…
We discuss a novel mechanism for segregation of baryons and anti-baryons in the quark-gluon plasma phase which can lead to formation of quark and antiquark nuggets in the early universe, irrespective of the order of the quark-hadron phase…
These lectures are an introduction to the subject of chiral effective Lagrangians of the Standard Model and their applications, mostly in the sector of non--leptonic kaon decays, with special emphasis on CP--violation. The first lecture…
We construct two anomaly-free supersymmetric $U(1)'$ models with a secluded $U(1)'$-breaking sector. For the one with $E_6$ embedding we show that there exists a strong enough first order electroweak phase transition for electroweak…
CP-violating effects in the time-dependent angular distribution of the B^0_s -> J/psi[-> ell^+ ell^-] phi[-> K^+K^-] decay products play a key role for the search of new physics. The hadronic Standard-Model uncertainties are related to…
This series of five lectures describes aspects of CP violation, emphasizing its description within the standard electroweak model. After discussing the kaon system, the only place in which CP violation has been seen so far, we turn to the…
New sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model are crucial to explain the baryon asymmetry in the Universe. We discuss the impact of new CP violating interactions in theories where a dark matter candidate is predicted by the…
CP-odd invariants are useful for studying the CP properties of Lagrangians in any basis. We explain how to build basis invariants for the scalar sector, and how to distinguish CP-odd invariants from CP-even invariants. Up to a certain…
CP-violating asymmetries in the processes e+e- -> t tbar and gamma gamma -> ttbar can provide information about CP-violating couplings of the top quark, whose presence would signal physics beyond the standard model. Work on studies of…
The special features of CP violation in the Standard Model are presented. The significance of measuring CP violation in B, K and D decays is explained. The predictions of the Standard Model for CP asymmetries in B decays are analyzed in…
We observe a generic connection between LHC Higgs data and electroweak baryogenesis: the particle that contributes to the CP odd $hgg$ or $h \gamma \gamma$ vertex would provide the CP violating source during a first order phase transition.…
In this talk I review how to search for CP violation in top-quark pair production and decay using T-odd correlations. I discuss two examples which illustrate many of the relevant features: CP violation in a heavy neutral Higgs boson; and CP…
