We derive two features of axion cosmology that may have cosmological implications, whether or not axions are dark matter: For the full range of allowed axion masses, the evolution of a cosmic axion background allows large CP violation until…
We study CP asymmetries in lepton-number violating two-body scattering processes and show how they are related to CP asymmetries in the decays of intermediate massive Majorana neutrinos. Self-energy corrections, which do not contribute to…
CP-violating asymmetries in the processes e+e- -> t tbar and gamma gamma -> ttbar can provide information about CP-violating couplings of the top quark, whose presence would signal physics beyond the standard model. Work on studies of…
Contributions to B - \bar B mixing from physics beyond the standard model may be detected from CP-violating asymmetries in B decays. There exists the possibility of large new contributions that cannot be detected by first generation…
CP non-invariance is strongly limited by present experiments, while extra sources of CP-violation are needed for a successful baryogenesis. Motivated by those observations we consider a model which predicts spontaneous violation of CP at…
We explore the possibility of baryogenesis without departure from thermal equilibrium. A possible scenario is found, though it contains strong constraints on the size of the $CPT$ violation ($CPTV$) effects and on the role of the $B$…
We study CP violating B decays in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with R-parity violation. We estimate how much R-parity violation modifies the SM predictions for CP asymmetries in B decays within the present bounds. The effects…
We review new physics effects on CP violation in B decays. We describe the Standard Model predictions for the various types of CP asymmetries and discuss the theoretical cleanliness of these predictions. We point out the ingredients in the…
We consider quantum effects in a world with two coexisting symmetry phases, unbroken and spontaneously broken, as a result of a first order phase transition. The discrete symmetries of the problem are discussed in general. We compute the…
We consider a class of baryogenesis models where the Lagrangian in the visible sector is Charge-Parity (CP) invariant and a baryon asymmetry is produced only when quantum statistics is taken into account. The CP symmetry is broken by matter…
We present in the conventional equilibrium approach to leptogenesis the complete leading order prediction for the CP asymmetry factor in finite-temperature decays involving Majorana neutrinos. As thermal effects are generally not…
The behaviour of the broken CP symmetry at finite temperature is examined. This is achieved through the investigation of the neutron electric dipole moment $d_n$ induced by $\theta$-term. By using thermal QCD sum rules, we find that below…
We study possible effects of new physics in CP asymmetries in two-body $B_s$ decays in left-right models with spontaneous CP violation. Considering the contributions of new CP phases to the $B_s$ mixing as well as to the penguin dominated…
If CP violation in the decays of neutral kaons is due to phases in the weak couplings of quarks, as encoded in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix, there are many other experimental consequences. Notable among these are CP-violating…
CP violation in the standard model originates from the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa mixing matrix. Upon integrating all fermions out of the theory, its effects are captured by a series of effective nonrenormalizable operators for the bosonic…
In this paper, we investigate the CP asymmetries ${\mathcal A}_{CP}^{pm}$ and ${\mathcal A}_{CP}^{mp}$ in $B_{c}^{\pm}\rightarrow B^{\pm} K^{0}+B^{\pm} {\bar{K}}^0\rightarrow B^{\pm} \pi^{\pm} e^{\mp} \nu_{e}$ and $B_{c}^{\pm}\rightarrow…
In this letter we explore the spontaneous CP violation at the finite temperature. We show that the CP-violating phase $\varphi$ may only emerge around the time of the electroweak phase transition, and it can provide a scource for generating…

Three body decays can exhibit CP violation that arises from interfering diagrams with different orderings of the final state particles. We construct several momentum asymmetry observables that are accessible in a hadron collider environment…
We make a systematic analysis of the effects of new physics in the B decay amplitudes on the CP asymmetries in neutral B decays. Although these are expected to be smaller than new physics effects on the mixing amplitude, they are easier to…
