A realistic medium- or long-baseline neutrino experiment may suffer from terrestrial matter effects which are likely to contaminate the genuine T-violating asymmetry between \nu_\alpha \to \nu_\beta and \nu_\beta \to \nu_\alpha…
We study the processes $\nu_\tau n \to \Lambda_c \tau^- (\pi^- \nu_\tau)$ and $\bar\nu_\tau p \to \Lambda \tau^+ (\pi^+ \bar\nu_\tau)$, with particular emphasis on the pion energy and angular distributions, as a possible signal for lepton…

Superbeam experiments can, in principle, achieve impressive sensitivities for CP violation in neutrino oscillations for large $\theta_{13}$. We study how those sensitivities depend on assumptions about systematical uncertainties. We focus…
Effects of the Leptonic CP violating phase,\delta, on 3 generation neutrino oscillation rates and asymmetries are discussed. A figure of merit argument is used to show that our ability to measure the phase \delta is rather insensitive to…
Non-zero leptonic CP phases in the neutrino sector are clear evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model and have many implications in particle physics and cosmology. Some clues to maximal Dirac CP violation $\delta_{CP}=3\pi/2$ are…

In recent years the experimental study of neutrino oscillations has much contributed to our knowledge of particle physics by establishing non vanishing neutrino masses and by measuring or constraining the corresponding mixing angles. Within…
We study the effects of non-standard interactions (NSI) and the genuine CP phase $\delta_D$ in neutrino oscillations at low, $E_\nu \lesssim 1\,\mbox{GeV}$, and very low, $E_\nu \lesssim 0.1\,\mbox{GeV}$, energies. For experimental setup…
CP violation from physics beyond the Standard Model is investigated in $B_{l4}$ decays: $B\to D\pi l\bar{\nu}_l$. The semileptonic $B$-meson decay to a $D$-meson with an emission of single pion is analyzed with heavy quark effective theory…
We study the freeze-in scenario of leptogenesis via oscillations within the type-I seesaw model with two quasi-degenerate heavy Majorana neutrinos $N_{1,\,2}$ having masses $M_2 > M_1 \sim (0.1-100)\,\text{GeV}$, $(M_2-M_1)/M_1 \ll 1$,…

I discuss CP violation in $\Lambda$ to p $\pi^-$ comparing the standard model expectations with what could happen in new physics scenarios. I point out that Fermilab experiment E871 is sensitive to some of these scenarios.
Neutrinoless double beta decay data together with information on the absolute neutrino masses obtained from the future KATRIN experiment and/or astrophysical measurements give a chance to find CP violation in the lepton sector with Majorana…
In a previous publication we noted that the time dependence of an incoherent $B^0-\bar{B}^0$ mixture undergoes a qualitative change when the magnitude of CP violation $\delta$ exceeds a critical value. Requiring, on physical grounds, that…
The best way to probe CP violation in the lepton sector is with long-baseline accelerator neutrino experiments in the appearance mode: the appearance of $\nu_e$ in predominantly $\nu_\mu$ beams. Here we show that it is possible to discover…
