Description

The CPT symmetry is one of the most fundamental symmetries observed in nature. This symmetry is observed in the most basic building blocks of the universe, subatomic particles. CPT invariance forms basis of all the fundamental theories that underlie the nature. This symmetry facilitates our understanding of particles and their antiparticles. Behavior of fundamental particle interactions under CPT symmetry reveals a lot about the observational evidence of the universe that we have long gathered. However breaking of these fundamental symmetries probes new insights into matter-antimatter asymmetry. In this paper, I explore CP violation in K-meson and B-meson system. I provide an overview of the mathematical formalism of CP violation and it's physical interpretation through aid of CKM matrix. I conclude with Sakharov conditions for matter-antimatter asymmetry and their correlation to CP violation phenomenon.
