In particle physics, a theory called Standard Model has
been established in the last two decades, which successfully
describes almost all the known experimental results up
to O(100) GeV energy scale. However it is widely believed
that the Standard Model is only an approximation of an
unrevealed theory that governs physics at O(1000) GeV
energy scale, and purposes of the modern high...

A review is provided of the measurements and investigations of direct and indirect CP violation, and the related T violation, within the neutral and charged kaon systems, discussing the evolution of the field, the most relevant and recent experimental results. An overview of ongoing activities and new projects being prepared is also presented.

Study of Flavour quantum numbers in elementary particle physics had
successfully revealed the structure of the Standard Model indirectly,
before the direct discoveries were made; such as charm, beauty and
top quarks and GIM mechanism and Kobayashi-Masukawa phase and CP
violation. At LHC, physics beyond the Standard Model will be studied
directly by searching for new particles...

The neutral kaon system offers a unique possibility
to perform fundamental tests of CPT invariance, as well as
of the basic principles of quantum mechanics.
The most recent limits on CPT violation will be reviewed, including the
ones based on the Bell-Steinberger relation, related to possible
decoherence mechanisms, or Lorentz symmetry breaking.
Quantum coherence and other QM tests...
