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…
Electric dipole moments (EDMs) of elementary particles are powerful probes of new physics with flavor-diagonal CP violation. The reported discrepancy in the muon anomalous magnetic moment motivates us to explore to what extent new physics…
In this lecture, I will review results on the study of direct CP violation- where the violation occurs in a particle decay rather than in particle-anti particle mixing. Brief comments on rare decays, particularly those with a CP reach, will…
We demonstrate that electron electric dipole moment experiments with molecules in paramagnetic state are sensitive to $P,T$-violating nuclear forces and other $CP$-violating parameters in the hadronic sector. These experiments, in…
Low-energy results from measurements of leptonic dipole moments are used to derive constraints on the CP-violating phases of the dimensionful parameters of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model (MSSM). We use these…

We explore the possibility of using CP violation in B decays to detect the presence of physics beyond the Standard Model. We first study the possibility of new physics in the $B-\bar B$ mixing amplitude. We discuss a construction to extract…
We study CP violation in a multi-Higgs doublet model based on a $S_3 \times Z_3$ horizontal symmetry where CKM phase is not the principal source of CP violation. We consider two mechanisms for CP violation in this model: a) CP violation due…
We have studied CP violation originated by the phase of the neutrino mixing matrix in the long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments. The direct measurements of CP violation is the difference of the transition probabilities between…

We explore the prospects for observing CP violation in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) with six CP-violating parameters, three gaugino mass phases and three phases in trilinear soft supersymmetry-breaking…
Electric dipole moments are extremely sensitive probes for additional sources of CP violation in new physics models. Specifically, they have been argued in the past to exclude new CP-violating phases in two-Higgs-doublet models. Since…
Three possibilities for the origin of CP violation are discussed: (1) the Standard Model in which all CP violation is due to one parameter in the CKM matrix, (2) the superweak model in which all CP violation is due to new physics and (3)…
In Standard Model, CP violation arises from an irreducible complex phase in the quark mixing matrix, now under the name Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. This description has shown remarkably overall agreement with various experimental…
Many experiments are underway in the world to search for a non-zero electric dipole moment (EDM) of a particle with spin 1/2 such as the neutron or the electron. Finding an EDM would reveal new sources of CP violation. EDM measurements are…
The focus of our considerations is the B-meson system, which will provide stringent tests of the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism of CP violation in this decade. After a classification of the main possible strategies to achieve this goal, we…

The Standard Model cannot explain the dominance of matter over anti-matter in our universe. This imbalance indicates undiscovered physics that violates combined CP symmetry. Many extensions to the Standard Model seek to explain the…
