Measurements of the polarization of the lepton and D* in the exclusive semileptonic B decays, B to D l nu and B to D* l nu, can be used to separate and identify the non-standard model sources of T violation. These T-odd effects, estimated…
Transverse polarization (TP) can be used to study interference of (S,P) or T type couplings from new physics with the SM contribution. In e+e- -> t tbar, a CP-odd azimuthal asymmetry can constrain the scale Lambda of new (S,P) or T contact…
