Some symmetries might have a deep reason to exist ... other not. symmetry violation ... suddenly we discover that we can observe a "non - observable". A is discovered. The Right-Left symmetry (Parity) was considered an exact symmetry 1956
Discrete symmetries P, C,... P: (x,y,z) -> (-x,-y,-z). C: charge -> -charge. e.m. interactions are P & C invariant
What about T ? If x(t) is solution of F = m d2x/dt2 then x(-t) is also a solution (ex.: billiard balls) Ok with electrodynamics:
Parity: (x,y,z) (-x,-y,-z) 1848 L. Pasteur discovers the property of optical isomerism. Mirror symmetry The synthesis of the lactic acid in the lab gives a "racemic" mixture: Nleft molecules = Nright molecules (within statistic fluctuations) Asymmetry = This reflects the fact that e.m. interaction is M (and P) invariant

P conserved in e.m. and strong 1924 O. Laporte classified the wavefunctions of an atom as either even or odd, parity +1 or -1. In e.m. atomic transitions a photon of parity -1 is emitted. The atomic wavefunction must change to keep the overall symmetry constant (Eugene Wigner, 1927) : Parity is conserved in e.m. transitions This is also true for e.m. nuclear or sub-nuclear processes (within uncertainties). H(strong) and H(e.m.) are considered parity conserving.

Powell,... observation of two apparently identical particles "tau" and "theta" weakly decaying tau 3 pions theta 2 pions which indicates P(tau) = -1 and P(theta) = + 1 If Parity holds "tau" and "theta" cannot be the same particle. 6 HEP conf. Rochester 1956 Tsung Dao Lee and Chen Ning Yang suggest that some particles can appear as parity doublets. Feynman brought up the question of non-conservation of parity (but bets 50 $ that P is conserved). Wigner suggests P is violated in weak interactions.
Parity in weak interactions .2 Lee and Yang make a careful study of all known experiments involving weak interactions. They conclude "Past experiments on the weak interactions had actually no bearing on the question of parity conservation" Question of Parity Conservation in Weak Interactions T. D. Lee Columbia University, New York, New York C. N. Yang Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, New York The question of parity conservation in beta decays and in hyperon and meson decays is examined. Possible experiments are suggested which might test parity conservation in these interactions. Phys. Rev. 104, 254–258 (1956)

Big Bang models are matter/antimatter symmetric Baryo genesisI Where is ANTIMATTER today? 1) Anti-Hydrogen has been produced at CERN: antimatter can exist. 2) Moon is made with matter. Idem for the Sun and all the planet. 3) In cosmics we observe e+ and antiprotons, but rate is compatible with secondary production. 4) No sign of significant of e+e-annihilation in Local Cluster. 5) Assuming Big Bang models OK, statistical fluctuations cannot be invoked to justify observations. No known mechanism to separate matter and antimatter at very large scale e+e- annihilation in the Galaxy in the Univers !

Andrej Sakarov 1967 2) Interactions must violate C and CP. C violated in Weak Interactions. CP violation observed in K and B decays . 3) System must be out of thermal equilibrium OK: Universe expands.

CP CP is violated in the B0 system
Origin of CP violation Hamiltonian H = H0 + HCP with HCP responsible for CP violation. Let's take HCP = gH + g*H† where g is some coupling. The second term is required by hermiticity. If under CP: H H† that is CP H CP† = H† then CP HCP CP† = CP (gH + g*H†) CP† = gH† + g*H CP invariance : HCP = CP HCP CP† gH + g*H† = gH† + g*H The conclusion is that CP is violated if g g* i.e. g non real CP violation is associated to the existence of phases in the hamiltonian.
