Spontaneous CP violation (SCPV) provides a promising solution to the strong CP problem, explaining the smallness of the QCD $\theta$-angle while generating the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) phase. In the present work, we review and…
The quantities $\epsilon_K^\prime$ and $\epsilon_K$ measure the amount of direct and indirect CP violation in $K\to \pi\pi$ decays, respectively. Using the recent lattice results from the RBC and UKQCD Collaborations and a new compact…
We study spontaneous CP violation as a solution to the strong CP problem in left-right symmetric theories. The discrete CP symmetry is broken by a complex vacuum expectation value of a right-handed Higgs doublet. Heavy vectorlike down-type…
We consider an $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{B-L} \times SU(3)_H^{VL}$ gauge model with natural flavour conservation in the Higgs sector, in which CP-violation occurs due to the horizontal interactions only. We calculate the…
CP violation in the SM is naturally implemented as a small imaginary perturbation to real Yukawa couplings. For example, a large CP asymmetry in B_d decays can arise if the imaginary parts of quark mass matrices are of order 10^(-3)m_t,b or…
In this thesis we study top-condensation models of electroweak symmetry breaking. In particular we investigate a scenario in which the CP symmetry is broken spontaneously due to the same condensates responsible of electroweak symmetry…
We examine the possibility of building a natural non-supersymmetric model of spontaneous CP violation equipped with the Nelson-Barr (NB) mechanism to address the strong CP problem. Our approach is to utilize a doubly composite dynamics…
The Standard Model contains a natural source for CP asymmetries in weak decays, which is described by the KM mechanism. Beyond $\epsilon _K$ it generates only elusive manifestations of CP violation in {\em light-}quark systems. On the other…
We study the possible existence of a real Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix, with CP violation originating from physics beyond the standard model (SM). We show that present experimental data allow for a real CKM matrix provided that…
The necessary complex structures needed for CP violation are not easy to generate and, indeed, CP can be a symmetry in higher dimensional theories. In 4-dimensions CP violation argues for the existence of a scalar sector and, in its…
In this talk I review theoretical predictions for CP violation in non-leptonic hyperon decays in the Standard Model and models beyond. In the Standard Model the CP violating observable $A$ in the polarization asymmetries of $\Lambda \to p…
We review several aspects of flavour-diagonal CP violation, focussing on the role played by the electric dipole moments (EDMs) of leptons, nucleons, atoms and molecules, which consitute the source of several stringent constraints on new…
The electric dipole moments of nucleons (NEDM, d_N) are calculated using the method of QCD sum rules. Our calculations are based on the parity and time reversal violating parameter $\thetabar$ in QCD and establish a functional dependence of…
The neutron electric dipole moment is investigated in a supersymmetric electroweak model admitting $ {\rm SU(2)}_W $ singlet and $ Q = -1/3 $, say $ D $-type, quarks. Significant $ CP $ violating phases appear in the coupling between the…
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…
$CP$ violating effects in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) can lead to excessively large contributions to the neutron EDM (\dn). We write criteria which ensure that the low energy supergravity (SUGRA) parametrization of the…
CP violation plays a privileged role in our quest for new physics beyond the electroweak standard model (SM). In the SM the violation of CP in the weak interactions has a single source: the phase of the quark mixing matrix (the CKM matrix,…
We investigate CP violating 2 Higgs doublet models as an effective theory emerging from models with an $SU(3)_L \otimes U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry. Because of the extension of the electroweak symmetry, a characteristic structure of Yukawa…
Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model provide new sources of CP violation. Here the CP properties of neutralinos are described and possible experimental signatures of CP--violation in the neutralino production processes at e+e-…
At natural values of parameters of the model dicussed, the contribution of the chromoelectric dipole moment of the s-quark to the neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) exceeds considerably the experimental upper limit for the neutron EDM. As…
