Abstract
A model of weak interaction is introduced which shows maximal CP violation. The model contains an octet (or nonet) of intermediate vector meson fields with a strong tri-linear self-coupling. First order terms are forbidden, while second order terms give CP=1, third order terms CP=−1 effects. The smallness of CP-violating effects is thus easily explained.
Резюме
Разрабатывается модель слабых взаимодействий, обнаруживающая максимальное CP нарушение. Модель содержит один октет (или нонет) промежуточных векторных мезонных полей с сильной трехлинейной самосвязью. Члены первого порядка запрещены, в то время как члены второго порядка дают эффекты CP=1, а члены третьего порядка −CP=−1. Малость эффектов CP нарушения так легко обБяснена.
