I discuss recent developments on non-leptonic and radiative kaon decays mainly related to direct CP-violation within the combined ChPT and 1/N_c expansion approaches. In particular, I review the status of K -> pi pi, epsilon_K', direct…

Quasi-degenerate neutral systems like a (K, \bar{K}) type are investigated in Quantum Field Theory (QFT). A constant mass matrix as the one used in Quantum Mechanics (QM) can only be introduced as a linear approximation to QFT. We study the…

We present a general model-independent and rephase-invariant formalism that cleanly relates observables to the fundamental parameters and explicitly separates different types of CP violation in the $B^0$-, $D^0$- and $K^0$- systems. We…

Familiar formulations of classical and quantum mechanics are shown to follow from a general theory of mechanics based on pure states with an intrinsic probability structure. This theory is developed to the stage where theorems from quantum…

I give a short overview about the possibilities and problems related to the measurement of CP violation in long baseline experiments. Special attention is paid to the issue of degeneracies and a method for their resolution is quantitatively…

CP violation has so far been observed in one system only, namely in the decays of neutral kaons, and it can still be described by a single real quantity corresponding to a superweak scenario. In these lectures I describe why limitations on…

During the last fifteen years B_{s,d} decays, B_{s,d}^0-\bar B^0_{s,d} mixings, CP-violating asymmetries S_{\psi K_S} and S_{\psi\phi} provided the dominant information about the pattern of flavour violation within the SM and its…

Considering that the existing experimental limit for $CPT$ violation is still poor, we explore various possible ways to test $CPT$ symmetry in $CP$-violating $B$ decays at $e^{+}e^{-}$ $B$ factories and hadron machines. We find that it is…

We comment on CP, T and CPT violation in the light of interesting new data from the CPLEAR and KTeV Collaborations on neutral kaon decay asymmetries. Other recent data from the CPLEAR experiment, constraining possible violations of CPT and…

We present precise tests of CP and CPT symmetry based on the full dataset of K to pipi decays collected by the KTeV experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory during 1996, 1997, and 1999. This dataset contains 16 million K to 2pi0…

We examine the possibility of extracting CP-violating terms in the decay K0 -> Pi0 e+ e- by studying the time evolution of a K0 beam. We focus on the interference region and search for clear effects. We find that experiments which average…

We review the Standard Model predictions of CP violation in kaon decays. We present an elementary introduction to Chiral Perturbation Theory, four--quark effective hamiltonians and the relation among them. Particular attention is devoted to…

We present the first observation of quantum interference in the process phi -> KS KL ->pi+pi-pi+pi-. This analysis is based on data collected with the KLOE detector at the e^+e^- collider DAFNE in 2001--2002 for an integrated luminosity of…

In this manuscript, we present an explicit way to describe the violation of CP symmetry in the standard model (SM) of electroweak interactions. In such a way, complex Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrices are achieved which stand for the…

Using a technique which employs a pair of solid scintillator regenerators, the E773 collaboration has measured several CP violation parameters in K meson decay at Fermilab. We report new results for the phase of eta_+-, the K_L-K_S mass…

We consider strangeness correlations of the EPR type in K^0 \bar{K}^0 pairs created in a J^{PC} = 1^{--} state as a function of time under the hypothesis that spontaneous decoherence takes place. We parameterize the degree of decoherence by…

We study breakdown of $CPT$ symmetry which can occur in the decay process $B \bar B \to l^\pm X^\mp f$ with $f$ being a CP eigenstate. In this process, the standard model expectations for time ordered semi-leptonic and hadronic events, i.e.…

CP violation in the neutral kaon system is known to be dominated by the mixing of K0 and anti-K0. Direct CP violation in the 2 pion decays of neutral kaons has been a controversial subject over the last decade. A strong experimental effort…

I discuss various ways in which CPT symmetry may be violated, and their phenomenology in current or immediate future experimental facilities, both terrestrial and astrophysical. Specifically, I discuss first violations of CPT symmetry due…

We investigate the issue of testing CPT invariance in the neutral-$D$ system, using $D$ events obtained either from fixed-target experiments or from a tau-charm factory. For both types of experiments we show that the expected suppression of…
