Dr Marianna Testa (Rome Univ., "La Sapienza")23/05/2007, 10:30CPT and QM testsNeutral kaons provide one of the most sensitive systems to quantum mechanics and CPT violation. In the first part of the talk, I will review results on CPT violation searches in the kaon system from the CPLEAR, KLOE and KTeV experiments. In the second part I will present tests of quantum coherence related to CPT violation performed at CPLEAR and KLOE by studying the time...Go to contribution page

Dr Gianni Garbarino (Universita di Torino)23/05/2007, 11:20CPT and QM testsWe review recent proposals of Bell's inequality tests with entangled pairs of neutral kaons from $phi$ resonance decays. The suggested experiments are discussed in the light of the essential requirements for a genuine discrimination between Local Hidden-Variable Theories (i.e., Local Realism) and Quantum Mechanics. After showing that the tests proposed up to now can hardly (or...Go to contribution page

Dr Beatrix Hiesmayr (Vienna University)23/05/2007, 11:40CPT and QM testsTwo hundred years ago Thomas Young taught us that photons interfere. Nowadays also experiments with very massive particles, like the fullerenes, have impressively demonstrated that fundamental feature of quantum mechanics. Later studies have shown that the knowledge on the path through the double slit is the reason why interference is lost. The gedanken experiment of Scully and...Go to contribution page

Dr Apollo Go (National Central University of Taiwan)23/05/2007, 12:00CPT and QM testsThe neutral B-meson pair produced at Upsilon(4S) exhibits a non-local EPR-type entanglement. At Belle experiment at KEK, we measure this entanglement using time-dependent flavour asymmetry of semileptonic B0 decays and compare with prediction of quantum mechanics and two realistic models. We also measure the decoherence of the neutral B-meson pair in B0-B0bar and BH-BL basis.Go to contribution page

Prof. Nikolaos Mavromatos (King's College, London)24/05/2007, 09:00CPT and QM testsI will give an overview of theoretical reasons for expecting a possible violation of CPT symmetry in some models of Quantum Gravity and then I will proceed to discuss experimental signatures of such a violation. As CPT violation may be (but not necessarily) linked to Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV), a seizable portion of the talk will be devoted to tests of Lorentz symmetry...Go to contribution page
