Mixing and CP Violation: Status and Prospects

Abstract

Brief overview of the present status on mixing and CP violation in kaons and B mesons is given by means of the unitarity triangle. Theoretical predictions on epsilon'/epsilon are confronted with experimental results. The prospects of detecting CP violation at high-energy p pbar, p p, e- e+ and mu- mu+ colliders are discussed in resonant scatterings involving top quarks and/or heavy scalars. The relevance of the latter for baryogenesis is briefly outlined.
