Looking for CP Violation in W Production and Decay

Abstract

We describe CP violating observables in resonant $W^{\pm }$ and $W^{\pm }$ plus one jet production at the Tevatron. We present simple examples of CP violating effective operators, consistent with the symmetries of the Standard Model, which would give rise to these observables. We find that CP violating effects coming from new physics at the $TeV$ scale could in principle be observable at the Tevatron with $10^6$ $W^{\pm }$ decays.
