Description

Since its first observation 35 years ago, CP violation has been measured so far only in the decays of neutral kaons. CP asymmetry is of particular relevance because of its connection with the prevalence of matter over antimatter in the universe, and of its interpretation in and beyond the Standard Model. A new result obtained by the experiment NA48 is discussed together with some characteristics of the technique used. The seminar is intended for non-specialists.

Organiser(s): Werner Herr / SL Division

Note: Tea and coffee will be served at 15.30 in front of the Auditorium
