CPT in Quantum Gravity and String Theory, Decoherence, Lorentz Violation
In this talk I give first a brief review of several models of quantum gravity entailing quantum decoherence of matter propagating in space-time foam backgrounds, and discuss the pertinent physical consequences. In particular, I discuss various parametrizations of quantum-gravity decoherence effects in a wide range of probes, from neutral mesons to neutrinos, including cosmic ones. I pay...

CPT in Quantum Gravity and String Theory, Decoherence, Lorentz Violation
The experimental study of the neutral kaon system allows us to perform very accurate tests of CPT symmetry and quantum mechanics.
The most recent and significant experimental results will be reviewed, including the ones obtained by the KLOE collaboration in the study of correlated kaon pairs produced at the DAFNE phi-factory; future perspectives will be briefly discussed.
