Neutral kaons oscillations in a Schwarzschild spacetime are analyzed. The interplay between two oscillations: (i) mixing associated with second order weak coupling and (ii) strange quark's zitterbewegung, introduces a coupling responsible…
We implement the mechanism of spontaneous CP violation in the 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos and recognize their sources of CP violation. Our main result is that the mechanism works already in the minimal version of the model and…
At finite temperatures around the electroweak phase transition, the thermodynamics of the MSSM can be described by a three-dimensional two Higgs doublet effective theory. This effective theory has a phase where CP is spontaneously violated.…
It is shown that the results of CP and T violation experiments can be interpreted using a very general framework that does not require a Hilbert space of states or linear operators to represent the symmetries or dynamics. Analysis within…
We have considered the structure of the fundamental symmetry violating part of the photon refractive index in vacuum in the presence of constant electric and magnetic fields. This part of the refractive index can, in principle, contain CPT…
The phenomenon of CP violation and strategies for extracting the angles of the unitarity triangle are reviewed. Special emphasis is given to the B-meson system, as it plays an outstanding role to test the Standard Model description of CP…
I present a new form of spontaneous CP violation in which, in analogy with the left-right-symmetric model, CP breaking results from the inequality of two real vacuum expectation values. In my model there is no scalar-pseudoscalar mixing,…
Recent measurements of CP violating asymmetries have led to a significant progress in our understanding of CP violation. The implications of the experimental results for the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism and for new physics are explained.
The Standard Model contains a natural source for CP asymmetries in weak decays, which is described by the KM mechanism. Beyond $\epsilon _K$ it generates only elusive manifestations of CP violation in {\em light-}quark systems. On the other…
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.
Based on parity violation in the weak interaction and evidences from neutrino oscillation, a natural choice is that neutrinos may be spacelike particles with a tiny mass. To keep causality for spacelike particles, a kinematic time under a…
A Dalitz-plot analysis of Bd(t) -> rho pi -> pi+ pi- pi0 decays allows one to obtain the CP-violating phase \alpha. In addition, one can extract the various tree (T) and penguin (P) amplitudes contributing to these decays. By comparing the…
The discrete symmetries of the Lorentz group are on the one hand a `complex' interplay between linear and anti-linear operations on spinor fields and on the other hand simple linear reflections of the Minkowski space. We define operations…
The direct CP-violation in the left-right symmetric $SU(2) \times SU(2) \times U(1)$ model is investigated for the decay $b \rightarrow s\gamma$. The calculated CP-asymmetry for the wide range of parameters can be larger than in standard…
I rebuild a conventional two-Higgs doublet model by relaxing the spontaneous CP violation and considering approximate global U(1) family symmetries. So that the domain-wall problem does not explicitly arise at the weak scale, but CP…
We present a pedagogical review of the phenomenology of CP violation, with emphasis on B decays. Main topics include the phenomenology of neutral meson systems, CP violation in the Standard Model of electroweak interactions, and B decays.…
We analyze the nonrelativistic quantum dynamics of a single neutral spin half particle, with non-zero magnetic and electric dipole moments, moving in an external electromagnetic field in presence of Lorentz symmetry violation background.…
We find in theories with spontaneous P and CP violation that symmetries needed to set the tree level strong CP phase to zero can also set all non-zero tree level CP violating phases to the maximal value \pi / 2 in the symmetry basis…
CP-violation in the loop-mediated photon-photon interactions would modify the birefringence of the quantum vacuum. We discuss the implications of this effect on the PVLAS-Phase II experiment, in which a time-dependent magnetic field is…
A review about some recent studies on the determination of the CP-violating complex parameters in supersymmetry at an e^+ e^- linear collider is presented. CP-even observables, like masses, cross sections and branching ratios, can have a…
