In this talk we review the status of the theoretical estimates for CP violating asymmetries in non-leptonic hyperon decays.
I review some of the salient issues connected to CP-violation and weak decays. In particular, I focus on recent and forthcoming tests of the CKM model and discuss the accuracy one can expect to achieve in B-decays for the parameters of this…
We present a reanalysis of direct CP violation in the decay K_L -> pi^+ pi^- gamma. We point out an existing discrepancy between the theoretical and experimental definitions of epsilon'_{+-gamma}. Adopting the experimental definition of…
Experiments at CERN and Fermilab have been competing each other to improve the measurement of a CP violation parameter, epsilon'/epsilon. Fermilab KTeV-E832 recently announced their final result, Re(epsilon'/epsilon) = [19.2 +- 2.1] x…
This lecture contains a brief introduction to CP violation in the B system before discussing future experimental programmes and their CP reach in the B system.
We review the experimental searches and determinations of direct CP violation in meson decays and other systems.
Recently a rephasing invariant definition of the CP-mixing parameter for Indirect CP Violation has been introduced. This is made possible by the explicit use of the CP operator into the analysis. The problem is then that of the…
Possible CP violation in supersymmetric (SUSY) extensions of the Standard Model (SM) is discussed. The consequences of CP violating phases in the gaugino masses, trilinear soft supersymmetry-breaking terms and the `mu' parameter are…
A complete analysis of isospin breaking in K to 2 pion amplitudes, including both strong and electromagnetic corrections at next-to-leading order in chiral perturbation theory, has been achieved recently.We discuss the implication of these…
We propose to search for CP-violating effects in the decay psi(2S)->J/psi+pi+pi. The scheme has the advantage that one does not need to track two or more CP-conjugate processes. Model independent amplitudes are derived for this purpose. The…
We review different definitions of the $\epsilon'$ parameter describing direct CP violation in neutral kaon decays, which was precisely measured in recent experiments, and point out the inconsistency of some of them due to a CPT constraint.…
We present an updated theoretical prediction of $\epse$, using the next-to-leading $\DSone$ effective hamiltonian and lattice QCD matrix elements. The CP violating phase is costrained by using both the experimental values of $\ep$ and…
We study the CP-violating asymmetry {\cal A}_{\rm CP}, which arises, in \eta\to\pi^+\pi^- e^+e^-, from the angular correlation of the e^+ e^- and \pi^+\pi^- planes due to the interference between the magnetic and electric decay amplitudes.…
We give a pedagogical review of the theory of CP violation with emphasis on the implications of recent experimental results. The review includes: (i) A detailed description of how CP violation arises in the Standard Model and in its…
We consider the possibilities of testing CP conservation in the process $e^+e^- \rightarrow ZH$. The easiest is to measure the forward-backward asymmetry of the $Z$ boson, a nonzero value of which signals CP violation. The effects of CP…
We update the theoretical analysis of the CP-violating asymmetry in the decay K_L -> pi+ pi- e+ e-, relying on chiral perturbation theory and on the most recent phenomenological information. With the experimentally determined magnetic…
I briefly review CP violation in the B system, concentrating on B -> pi K decays. I discuss how to deal with electroweak-penguin contributions to these decays using flavour SU(3). With these, I show that the entire unitarity triangle can be…
The limits placed by the non-measurement of atomic and neutron electric dipole moments on CP violating phases beyond the SM are found to be not fully justified since the calculations of the expected EDMs lack the full understanding of the…
The electric dipole moment (EDM) is a very sensitive probe of CP violation beyond the standard model, and it as been measured in many systems such as atoms, neutrons, etc. The EDM of composite systems may be sensitive to several elementary…
CP violation in the K system is pedagogically reviewed. We discuss its manifestations in the neutral K meson systems, in rare K meson decays and in decays of charged K mesons. Results from classical experiments, and perspectives for…
