I sent it off to my son in law for his take on it. I have been reading particle physics for 15 years, but only get bits and pieces of it. Just too much basic stuff I don't know.I have some awareness of the basics, but no understanding at all of how they are derived i.e. the actual calculations, so I know my mental image is wrong. I am totally blind to the larger reality. I just know it is real. But I always thought one should do the best they can with what they have. Some understanding is better than none. Thanks.

I book marked the lectures and will start reading them. They look terrific. Sending them to my daughter as well. Thanks again.

Indeed, many theoretical physicists believe that the amount ofCPviolation we know about so far is insufficient to account fully for the matter dominance in the universe. Clearly, understanding the origin ofCP violation is one of the most basic and far-reaching problems in particle physics. The above might be linked to the recent discovery of gravity waves near the origin of the Big Bang by the South Pole telescope, and the theoretical linking of these waves to the "accelerated" inflation phenomena thought to have occurred then (due to the waves) wherein matter briefly traveled faster than light.
