The talk will review some highlights of measurements of B and D meson properties in experiments at B factories, with emphasis on the time evolution of the systems and CP violation. We will further discuss the motivation for a future Super B factory, as well as the requirements for the detector and for the accelerator. Finally, the present status of the project will be presented together with...

Precise measurements of CP and CPT symmetry based on the full dataset of K -> pi pi decays collected by the KTeV experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory during 1996, 1997, and 1999 are presented. The direct CP violation parameter Real(epsilon'/epsilon) is determined to 10% accuracy: Real(epsilon'/epsilon)=(19.2 \pm 2.1)x10^{-4}. Several parameters that test CPT invariance are...

One of the mysteries of our universe is the observed baryon asymmetry which can not be explained using the Standard Model of particle physics. According to Sacharov this implies further, yet unknown, CP violation which will be tested with a refined search for the neutron electric dipole moment. A collaboration of 15 European institutes has been preparing a more sensitive experiment to be...
