The CP parameters $\epsilon$ and $\epsilon'/\epsilon$ are calculated in the aspon model of spontaneous CP violation, a model which solves the strong CP problem. A new range for the scale of spontaneous breaking of CP is found. It is shown…

We study the predictions for the direct CP violation parameter epsilon'/epsilon in a class of string-inspired model with non-universal soft A-terms. We show that the non-universality of the A-terms plays an important rule in enhancing the…

For direct CP-violation in $K\to\pi\pi$ decays, the usual isospin-breaking effects at the percent level are amplified by the dynamics behind the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule and conventionally encoded in $\Omega_{\rm IB}$ parameters. The updated…
