A Primer On Cp: The Science Of Matter-antimatter Differences From An Experimentalist's Perspective

In the Standard Model theory for the interactions of the elementary particles of nature, the transition between matter and antimatter is the combined application of the charge conjugation operator C, which changes particles to antiparticles and vice versa, and the parity operator P, which exchanges right to left and left to right. In spite of the theory's remarkable success at describing the result of virtually all particle-physics-related measurements, its high degree of CP symmetry makes ...
