Model of Soft CP Violation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a model of soft CP violation that evades the strong CP problem and can describe observed CP violation in the neutral kaon sector, both direct and indirect. Our model requires two “duark” mesons carrying quark number two that have complex (CP-violating) bare masses and are coupled to quark pairs. Aside from the existence of these potentially observable new particles with masses of several hundred GeV, we predict a flat unitarity triangle (i.e., no observable direct CP violation in the B-meson sector) and a possibly anomalous branching ratio for the decay mode K+ → π+ + ν̄ ν.

Aspects of Soft and Spontaneous CP Violation
We study four different models for CP violation: the standard (KM) model, the aspon model of spontaneous breaking and two models of soft breaking. In all except the standard model, the strong CP problem is addressed and solved. Testable predictions for the area of the unitarity triangle and for (ǫ ′ /ǫ)K are emphasized. The issue of CP violation may well become the first place where the standar...

متن کاملLow Scale Leptogenesis from Non-Leptonic CP -Phases
We point out new sources of CP -violation for leptogenesis at electroweak temperatures. In supersymmetric models, CP -violation leading to a lepton asymmetry can originate from the phase of the μ-term relative to soft gaugino masses or soft triscalar interactions. As an additional possibility, we consider a top-quark loop in a multiple Higgs doublet model. Leptogenesis from these non-leptonic C...
متن کاملSoft Superweak CP Violation and the Strong CP Puzzle
We discuss a class of models in which CP is violated softly in a heavy sector adjoined to the standard model. Heavy-sector loops produce the observed CP violation in kaon physics, yielding a tiny and probably undetectable value for ǫ. All other CPviolating parameters in the effective low-energy standard model, including the area of the unitarity triangle and θ, are finite, calculable and can be...
