“...the effect is telling us that at some tiny level there is a fundamental asymmetry between matter and antimatter, and it is telling us that at some tiny level interactions will show an asymmetry under the reversal of time. We know that improvements in detector technology and quality of accelerators will permit even more sensitive experiments in coming decades. We are hopeful then, that at some epoch, perhaps distant, this cryptic message from nature will be deciphered.” ...J.W. Cronin, Nobel Prize lecture*. Cronin, Nobel Prize lecture*.

How can CP asymmetries arise? (I)How can CP asymmetries arise? (I)
When we talk about CP violation, we need to talk about the phases of QM amplitudes.
This is usually very confusing.
some phases are physical; others are not.
many treatments invoke specific phase conventions, which acquire a magical aura.
Need to consider two types of phases
CP-conserving phases: don’t change sign under CP. (Sometimes called strong phases since they can arise from strong, final-state interactions.)
CP-violating phases: these do change sign under CP.
How can CP asymmetries arise? (II)How can CP asymmetries arise? (II)
Suppose a decay can occur through two different processes, with amplitudes A1 and A2.
First, consider the case in which there is a (relative) CP-violating phase between A1 and A2 only.

CommentsComments
Triggering: so far, most B branching fractions have been measured at e+e- machines, because CDF, D0 triggers were very selective in Run 1. Also, PID & detection arebetter at Y(4S) experiments so far.)
Hadron colliders produce Bs and b-baryons. (LEP also.)
New displaced-vertex triggers at hadron-collider experiments should make a dramatic improvement.

In the double-slit experiment, there are two paths to the same point on the screen.In the B experiment, we must choose final states that both a B0 and a B0 can decay into.We perform the B experiment twice (starting from B0 and from B0). We then compare the results.
