We study two simple $CP$-violating asymmetries of leptons coming from the decay of $t$ and $\o t$ in $e^+e^- \ra \tt$, which do not need the full reconstruction of the $t$ or $\o t$ for their measurement. They can arise when the top quark…
Heavy quarks, namely, the top and bottom quarks, may show great sensitiveness to new physics effects. In particular, they might have unusually large electric dipole moments. This possibility is analyzed via the corresponding one-loop…
The chromoelectric dipole moment of the top quark is calculated in a model with a vector like multiplet which mixes with the third generation in an extension of the MSSM. Such mixings allow for new CP violating phases. Including these new…
