Abstract We propose a framework where a phase transition associated with a gauge symmetry breaking that occurs (not far) above the electroweak scale sets a stage for baryogenesis similar to the electroweak baryogenesis in the Standard Model. A concrete realization utilizes the breaking of SU(2)R× U(1)X→ U(1)Y. New chiral fermions charged under the extended gauge symmetry have nonzero lepton numbers, which makes the B − L symmetry anomalous. The new lepton sector contains a large flavor-dependent CP violation, similar to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa phase, without inducing sizable electric dipole moments of the Standard Model particles. A bubble wall dynamics associated with the first-order phase transition and SU(2)R sphaleron processes generate a lepton asymmetry, which is transferred into a baryon asymmetry via the ordinary electroweak sphaleron process. Unlike the Standard Model electroweak baryogenesis, the new phase transition can be of the strong first order and the new CP violation is not significantly suppressed by Yukawa couplings, so that the observed asymmetry can be produced. The model can be probed by collider searches for new particles and the observation of gravitational waves. One of the new leptons becomes a dark matter candidate. The model can be also embedded into a left-right symmetric theory to solve the strong CP problem.

The Standard Model

This review paper stresses the possible connection between time-reversal violation and new physics processes beyond the standard model. In particular, this violation is proposed as an alternative to CP violation in the search for such unkown processes. Emphasis is put on the weak decays of heavy hadrons, especially beauty ones. Specific methods for extracting useful parameters from experimental data are elaborated in order to test TR symmetry. These methods could be used successfully in the analysis of the LHC data.

We discuss the RBC & UKQCD collaborations’ recent [1] lattice calculation of ϵ′, the measure of direct CP-violation in kaon decays. This result significantly improves on our previous 2015 calculation, with nearly 4× the statistics and more reliable systematic error estimates. We discuss how our results demonstrate the Standard Model origin of the ΔI = 1/2 rule, and present our plans for future calculations.

Flavour Violation

We review the status of rare decays and CP violation in extensions of the Standard Model. We analyze the determination of the unitarity triangle and the model-independent constraints on new physics that can be derived from this analysis. We find stringent bounds on new contributions to [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] mixing, pointing either to models of minimal flavour violation or to models with new sources of flavour and CP violation in b → s transitions. We discuss the status of the universal unitarity triangle in minimal flavour violation, and study rare decays in this class of models. We then turn to supersymmetric models with nontrivial mixing between second and third generation squarks, discuss the present constraints on this mixing and analyze the possible effects on CP violation in b → s nonleptonic decays and on [Formula: see text] mixing. We conclude presenting an outlook on Lepton-Photon 2009.

The Impact

This paper describes the work pursued in the years 2008–2013 on improving the Standard Model prediction of selected flavor-physics observables. The latter includes: (1) [Formula: see text], that quantifies indirect CP violation in the [Formula: see text] system and (2) the very rare decay [Formula: see text], recently measured at the LHC. Concerning point (1), the paper describes our reappraisal of the long-distance contributions to [Formula: see text],[Formula: see text] that have permitted to unveil a potential tension between CP violation in the [Formula: see text]- and [Formula: see text]-system. Concerning point (2), the paper gives a detailed account of various systematic effects pointed out in Ref. 4 and affecting the Standard Model [Formula: see text] decay rate at the level of 10% — hence large enough to be potentially misinterpreted as nonstandard physics, if not properly included. The paper further describes the multifaceted importance of the [Formula: see text] decays as new physics probes, for instance how they compare with [Formula: see text]-peak observables at LEP, following the effective-theory approach of Ref. 5. Both cases (1) and (2) offer clear examples in which the pursuit of precision in Standard Model predictions offered potential avenues to discovery. Finally, this paper describes the impact of the above results on the literature, and what is the further progress to be expected on these and related observables.
