The measurements of the CP violation parameters by the CPLEAR experiment are reviewed. It is shown that attempts to prove T-violation from the semileptonic asymmetries are flawed by logical inconsistencies.
The phenomenological features of the mixing in the neutral pseudoscalar mesons K0-K0bar can be illustrated in the classical framework of mechanics and by means of electromagnetic coupled circuits. The time-reversed not-invariant processes…
The CP asymmetry in inclusive B->X_{s,d}+gamma decays is an important probe of new physics. The theoretical prediction was thought to be of a perturbative origin, and in the standard model, to be about 0.5 percent. In a recent work with M.…
Fundamental laws of physics are symmetric under time reversal ($T$) symmetry, but the $T$ symmetry is strongly broken in the macroscopic world. In this Perspective, I review $T$ symmetry breaking frameworks: \textit{second law of…
Atomic experiments bring meaningful and valuable information on fundamental symmetries. The hypothesis of a large ($\sim 100$ eV) P-odd weak matrix element between single-particle states in heavy nuclei is inconsistent with the results of…
As the LHC becomes a top-quark factory and enters the era of precision measurements it presents us with a unique opportunity to search for new sources of CP violation. I discuss T-odd triple product correlations and the special role they…
I will give here an overview of the present observational and theoretical situation regarding the question of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe and the related question of the existence of antimatter on a cosmological scale. I…
The effects of parity and time reversal violating potential, in particular the tensor-pseudotensor electron nucleus interaction are studied. We establish that selected terms representing the interplay of these effects and the residual…
Measurements of CP asymmetries in hadron decays integrated over time provide access to direct CP violation, which arises from differences between the amplitudes of CP-conjugate decay processes. These proceedings present an overview of…
We proceed to study the $CP$ asymmetry in the angular distributions of $\tau\to K_S\pi\nu_\tau$ decays within a general effective field theory framework including four-fermion operators up to dimension-six. It is found that, besides the…
We readdress the issue of strong CP violation both in the Standard Model and in the Minimal Left-Right Symmetric Model and try to clear the confusion that seems to still pervade the field. We argue that the smallness of strong CP violation,…
The analysis conducted in this work indicates that interactions of a CP-violating (and CPT-preserving) quantum system with a thermodynamic environment can produce the impression of a CPT violation in the system. This conclusion is…
We extend the definition of generalized parity $P$, charge-conjugation $C$ and time-reversal $T$ operators to nondiagonalizable pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians, and we use these generalized operators to describe the full set of symmetries of…
Cosmological models that are locally consistent with general relativity and the standard model in which an object transported around the universe undergoes P, C and CP transformations, are constructed. This leads to generalization of the…
Some theories of new physics accounting for neutrino masses can give rise to a low-energy non-unitary leptonic mixing matrix. It is shown that the CP-asymmetries in the $\nu_\mu\to \nu_\tau$ channel are an excellent probe of such new…
In a recent publication, we suggested a mechanism for obtaining dynamical CP violation in the early Universe based on the out-of-equilibrium evolution of complex scalar fields. In this paper, we suggest several ways of transferring the CP…
Parity-violating and time-reversal conserving (PVTC) and parity-violating and time-reversal-violating (PVTV) forces in nuclei form only a tiny component of the total interaction between nucleons. The study of these tiny forces can…
Relativistic deformed kinematics are usually considered as a way to capture residual effects of a fundamental quantum gravity theory. These kinematics present a non-commutative addition law for the momenta, so that the total momentum of a…
In current searches for D0 anti-D0 mixing, the time evolution of ``wrong-sign'' decays is used to distinguish between a potential mixing signal and the dominant background from doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed decays. A term proportional to…
CP violation in top physics is reviewed. The Standard Model has negligible effects, consequently CP violation searches involving the top quark may constitute the best way to look for physics beyond the Standard Model. Non-standard sources…
