We present a new method to measure the transverse spin correlation in the $H\to\tau^+\tau^-$ decay. The method has been devised to be insensitive to the beamstrahlung which affects the definition of the beam energy at a linear collider. In…
Results are presented on a search for CP violation in the production and decay of top quark-antiquark pairs in the lepton+jets channel. The search is based on data from proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector,…

We investigate possible CP violating effects in $e^+e^-$ annihilation into top quark pairs. One of the interesting observable effects is the difference in production rates between the two CP conjugate polarized states $t_L\bar t_L$ and…
In the standard model, we study CP violating rate asymmetries in the decay b->d l^+ l^- when one of the leptons is polarised. We find an asymmetry of (5 -- 15)% in the polarised decay spectrum which is comparable to known results for the…
We discuss contact-interaction searches in the processes e^+e^-\to \mu^+\mu^-, b\bar{b} and c\bar{c} at an e^+e^- Linear Collider with c.m. energy \sqrt{s}=0.5 TeV and with longitudinally polarized beams. The measurement of polarized cross…

Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model provide new sources of CP violation. Here the CP properties of neutralinos are described and possible experimental signatures of CP--violation in the neutralino production processes at e+e-…
We consider the process $e^+e^-\to\ti\chi^+_i\ti\chi^-_j$ at a linear collider with transverse $e^{\pm}$ beam polarization. We investigate the influence of the CP phases on azimuthal asymmetries in $e^+e^-\to\ti\chi^+_i\ti\chi^-_j$ with…
Large parity violating longitudinal single spin asymmetries A^{e^-}_L= -0.86^{+0.14}_{-0.30} and A^{e^+}_L= 0.88^{+0.12}_{-0.71} are observed for inclusive high transverse momentum electrons and positrons in polarized pp collisions at a…
We revisit the potential of a Linear Collider concerning the study of lepton flavour violation, in view of new LHC bounds and of the (very) recent developments in lepton physics. Working in the framework of a type I supersymmetric seesaw,…
The search for new sources of CP violation is a cornerstone of the beyond the Standard Model phenomenology programme at the LHC and beyond. We provide a comprehensive analysis of such searches at a range of future facilities with the aim of…

In the presence of an electric dipole coupling of the top quark to a photon, and an analogous "weak" dipole coupling to the Z, CP violation in the process e+e- -> t tbar leads to the polarization of the top and anti-top. This polarization…
