2 CP Violation Asymmetry between a particle and an anti-particle. Baryons in the niverse Many possible sources. So far only CKM source in quark. In quark sector, a LARGE CP violation has been established. It is well explained in the CKM model. δ ~ 6 ε K V ub -. η e iδ sinβ.6.8. ρ ρ iη M Bs M Bs -.6 M Bd
