It is shown that if antiparticles are realized in quantum field theory by negative frequency states, which nevertheless have positive energy density, the resulting theory provides a qualitative explanation for the experiments on the neutral…
The nonlocal property of quantum mechanics can be nicely tested in high energy physics; in particular, the neutral kaon pairs as produced at DA$\Phi$NE, Frascati, are very well suited. The analogies of kaons as compared to polarized photons…
CP violation is an important tool to test the Standard Model and his extensions. We describe kaon physics observables testing CP violation and more in general short distance physics. Channels under consideration will be K -> pi nu nu, K ->…
This chapter provides an in-depth analysis of the properties and phenomena associated with neutral K-mesons. Kaons are quantum systems illustrating strange behaviours. We begin by examining the significance of strangeness and charge parity…
We discuss the quantum mechanics of B-factory experiments, and that of neutral K or B decay. Predictions for the processes to be studied at the B factories can be made through an approach based on amplitudes, rather than on wave functions.…
