Large Tree Level CP Violation in $e^+e^-to tbar{t}H^0$ in The Two Higgs Doublet Model


Abstract in English

We find a large CP violation effect within the Two-Higgs-Doublet-Model for the reaction $e^+e^-to tbar{t}H^0$ at future linear colliders. The CP-asymmetry arises already at the tree level as a result of interference between diagrams with $H^0$ emission from $t$ (and $bar{t}$) and its emission from a $Z^0$ and can be about 10--20%. In the best case one needs a few hundred $tbar{t}H^0$ events to observe CP violation at the 3$sigma$ level.
