7 a. Time reversal and CP violation in the quark sector a nonzero particle EDM violates P, T and, assuming CPT conservation, also CP investigate different systems, providing complementary information on different sources of CP violation some current EDM constraints : e.g. permanent EDMs matter – anti-matter asymmetry 1.
