Instead, the effects of such transformations get transmitted by the rotation to the CKM matrix as the KM phase giving, for theta of order unity, a Jarlskog invariant typically of order 10(-5), as experimentally observed. Strong and weak CP violations appear then as just two facets of the same phenomenon.", optnote="ISI:000288429300006", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=536), last updated on Fri, 25 Mar 2011 10:28:57 +0000", issn="0217-751x", doi="10.1142/S0217751X10051165", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1002.3542", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1142/S0217751X10051165", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1002.3542", language="English" }
