Abstract

The phenomenon of CP-violation was discovered in 1964 by Christenson, Cronin, Fitch, and Turlay in K 0-decays. To date Kaon systems have remained the only place where breakdown of CP-invariance has been observed. Since Lorentz invariant local field theories are CPT-invariant, breakdown of CP-symmetry implies breakdown of time-reversal invariance. This fact is used in experimental search for CP-violation by looking for kinematic effects odd under time-reversal symmetry.
