I present a review of current and near-future experimental investigations of CP violation. In this review, I cover limits on particle electric dipole moments (EDMs) and CP violation studies in the K and B systems. The wealth of results from the new B factories provide impressive constraints on the CKM quark mixing matrix elements. Current and future measurements are focusing on processes dominated by loop diagrams, which probe physics at high mass scales in low-energy experiments.

We present a pedagogical review of particle physics models that are based on the noncommutativity of space–time, [Formula: see text], with specific attention to the phenomenology these models predict in particle experiments either in existence or under development. We summarize results obtained for high energy scattering such as would occur, for example, in a future e+e-linear collider with [Formula: see text], as well as low energy experiments such as those pertaining to elementary electric dipole moments and other CP violating observables, and finally comment on the status of phenomenological work in cosmology and extra dimensions.

Guided us by the scenario of weak scale naturalness and the possible existence of exotic resonances, we have explored in a [Formula: see text] Composite Higgs setup the interplay among three matter sectors: elementary, top partners and vector resonances. We parametrize it through explicit interactions of spin-1 [Formula: see text]-resonances, coupled to the [Formula: see text]-invariant fermionic currents and tensors presented in this work. Such invariants are built upon the Standard Model fermion sector as well as top partners sourced by the unbroken [Formula: see text]. The mass scales entailed by the top partner and vector resonance sectors will control the low energy effects emerging from our interplaying model. Its phenomenological impact and parameter spaces have been considered via flavor-dijet processes and electric dipole moments bounds. Finally, the strength of the Nambu–Goldstone symmetry breaking and the extra couplings implied by the top partner mass scales are measured in accordance with expected estimations.

We dicuss the utility of precision probes for flavour-diagonal CP-violation, namely, searches for electric dipole moments of nucleons, atoms, and molecules, in looking for new physics thresholds that manifest themselves primarily through higher dimensional operators. After reviewing the status of the electric dipole moment (EDM) constraints, we consider first the sensitivity to a generic class of dimension-five operators generated at a supersymmetric threshold, through their contribution to CP- and flavour-violating observables. Such thresholds can be probed by EDMs up to a scale of order 108 GeV depending on the flavour structure. We then turn to consider the possibility that electroweak baryogenesis is made feasible by the introduction of dimension-six operators at a TeV-scale threshold. The EDM costraints on dimension-six couplings of the Higgs to the fermions currently still allow a reasonable window in parameter space for these models, but the next generation of experiments should provide a conclusive test.

We review the present status of the CP violating problem in supersymmetric extensions of the standard model. We analyze the constraints imposed by the experimental limits of the electron, neutron, and mercury electric dipole moments on the supersymmetric CP phases and show that only the scenarios with flavour-off-diagonal CP violation remain attractive. These scenarios require Hermitian Yukawa matrices which naturally arise in models with left–right symmetry or a SU(3) flavour symmetry. In this case, εK and ε′/ε can be saturated by a small non-universality of the soft scalar masses through the gluino and chargino contributions respectively. The model also predicts a strong correlation between A CP (b → sγ) and the neutron electric dipole moment. In this framework, the standard model gives a the leading contribution to the CP asymmetry in B → ψKS decay, while the dominant chargino contribution to this asymmetry is < 0.2. Thus, no constraint is set on the non-universality of this model by the recent BaBar and Belle measurements.
