Searching for rephase-invariant CP- and CPT-violating observables in meson decays

We present a general model-independent and rephase-invariant formalism that cleanly relates CP and CPT noninvariant observables to the fundamental parameters. Different types of CP and CPT violations in the \(K^0\)-, \(B^0\)-, \(B_s^0\)- and \(D^0\)-systems are explicitly defined. Their importance for interpreting experimental measurements of CP and CPT violations is emphasized. In particular, we show that the time-dependent measurements allow one to extract a clean signature of CPT violation.
