CP Violation The CKM matrix Motivation: • CP violation discovered ~50 years ago observing the decay K L → π+π • In the SM CPV arises from the not vanishing phase of the CKM matrix • New Physics can induce additional FCNC and CP-violating phases • Many observations of CPV processes in the last decade in the beauty and strange sectors Global consistency with SM predictions • No observation yet of CPV effects in the charm sector • No observation yet of CPV effects in the lepton sector III Jornadas CPAN, Barcelona A. Oyanguren 19
CP Violation in D decays Motivation: Direct CP violation in D decays arises through interference between: In the SM is CKM suppressed O(10 -3) or less: Vcs New Physics can increase or reduce the effect: - e. g. additional CP phase from charged Higgs boson [PRD 75, 036008 (2007)] [hep-ph/0104008 (2001)] SCS decays are more likely to show the effect if present [PRD 51, 003478 (1995)] Current experimental sensitivity O(10 -3) III Jornadas CPAN, Barcelona A.
