Strictly within the standard electro-weak interaction, CP violation in the flavour conserving process $\eta \rightarrow \pi + \pi $ could originate from the mixing of the $\eta$ meson with the virtual scalar Higgs boson $ H^{0}$ via $W$ and…
The SM predictions for CP violating effects in D meson systems are highly suppressed at the per mill level. Therefore, any experimental evidence for a sizable CP violation in D0-D0bar mixing would unambiguously point towards a New Physics…
Rare decays of B and K mesons and CP violations thereof are considered in SUSY models with S_3^3 flavor symmetry. SUSY contributions to epsilon_K and epsilon'/epsilon_K can be large, but not to B0 - B0 bar mixing because of strong…
