| Abstract: | Since its discovery in kaon decay in 1964, the origin of CP (Charge-Parity) violation has still not been completely understood. Even though the Standard Model is able to describe this phenomenon, its description involves many theoretical uncertainties. Examples are the parameters of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements, and the hadronic matrix elements connected to the short and long distance effects. The interest in CP violation has increased with the rise of studies in cosmological physics (baryo-genesis) and also with the use of new models so-called "beyond the Standard Model", such as the Higgs model and its derivative, the left-right symmetric models and supersymmetric models. |
