Within the framework of the minimal non-minimal supersymmetric standard model (MNMSSM) with tadpole terms, CP violation effects in the Higgs sector are investigated at the one-loop level, where the radiative corrections from the loops of…
In the MSSM, the CP parities of the neutral Higgs bosons may be mixed by radiative effects induced by explicit CP violation in the third generation of squarks. To allow for this possibility, we argue that the charged Higgs-boson mass and…
We solve the equations of motion for a CP violating phase between the two Higgs doublets at the bubble wall of the MSSM electroweak phase transition. Contrary to earlier suggestions, we do not find indications of spontaneous…
The explicit CP violation in the MSSM radiatively induces a finite unremovable alignment between the Higgs doublets. This additinal phase can be as large as the original CP phases in certain portions of the MSSM parameter space. Considering…
We present a new form of CP violation (CPV) that can be realised in Two-Higgs Doublet Models (2HDMs) and was studied recently in [1]. By examining the vacuum manifold of a generic (convex) 2HDM potential, we identify scenarios that exhibit…
In this Snowmass whitepaper, we describe the impact of ongoing and proposed intensity frontier experiments on the parameter space of the Minimally Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We extend a set of phenomenological MSSM (pMSSM) models…
I consider a general two Higgs doublet model with CP violation. I give a perturbative expansion for the mass eigenstates in terms of the small CP violating phase. I use these analytical expressions to show that $\mathcal{O}(10^{-2})$ CP…
We consider an $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{B-L} \times SU(3)_H^{VL}$ gauge model with natural flavour conservation in the Higgs sector, in which CP-violation occurs due to the horizontal interactions only. We calculate the…
We present an overview of direct and indirect constraints in the MSSM, in CP-conserving and CP-violating MSSM scenarios, with some emphasis on the importance of combining the constraints from different sectors, namely SUSY and Higgs direct…
We study the phenomenological implications of the Higgs sector CP violation at a photon collider. In our model, the CP violation is radiatively induced by the non-trivial CP phases of the third-generation scalar-quark sector in the MSSM. We…
We consider spontaneous CP violation in the Next to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, without the usual $Z_3$ discrete symmetry. CP violation can occur at tree level, raising a potential conflict with the experimental bounds on the…
Spontaneous CP--violation in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with a gauge singlet and a cubic superpotential is examined. Although the tree--level Higgs potential conserves CP, it is shown that with the inclusion of the one--loop…
In this paper we examine the effect of adding CP-violating phases to the pMSSM on the Dark-Matter (DM) direct-detection cross sections, the velocity-weighted annihilation cross section, and the DM relic density. We show that $\varphi_{M_2}$…
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…
We study an extension of the Higgs sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), considering the effects of new degrees of freedom at the TeV scale, and allowing for sources of CP violation beyond the MSSM (BMSSM). We analyze…
In the MSSM with complex parameters loop corrections to the decays $H^+ \to t \bar{b}$ and $H^- \to \bar{t} b$ with $t \to b W$ and $W \to l \nu$ lead to CP-violating asymmetries: a decay rate asymmetry, a forward-backward asymmetry and an…
We discuss CP-violation in a model with a real and a complex isospin triplet Higgs fields without introducing any symmetries except for the electroweak gauge symmetry. This corresponds to the minimal extension of the Higgs sector with the…
We consider the effect of CP violating phases in the MSSM on the relic density of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP). In particular, we find that the upper limits on the LSP mass are relaxed when phases in the MSSM are allowed to…
The necessary complex structures needed for CP violation are not easy to generate and, indeed, CP can be a symmetry in higher dimensional theories. In 4-dimensions CP violation argues for the existence of a scalar sector and, in its…
Four topics in theory of CP violation are reviewed. (a) CP violation in $B$ decays: We describe a new clean way of constraining the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle and how new CP violation in decay amplitudes can signal new…
