The DO collaboration has measured the like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in $p bar{p}$ collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The result is significantly different from the standard model expectation of CP violation in mixing. In this paper we consider the possible causes of this asymmetry and identify one standard model source not considered before. It decreases the discrepancy of the like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry with the standard model prediction, although does not eliminate it completely.

We present an updated measurement of the anomalous like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry Aslb for semi-leptonic $b$-hadron decays in 9.0 fb^-1 of p pbar collisions recorded with the D0 detector at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt{s} = 1.96 TeV at the Ferm ilab Tevatron collider. We obtain Aslb = (-0.787 +- 0.172(stat) +- 0.093 (syst))%. This result differs by 3.9 standard deviations from the prediction of the standard model and provides evidence for anomalously large CP violation in semi-leptonic neutral B decay. The dependence of the asymmetry on the muon impact parameter is consistent with the hypothesis that it originates from semi-leptonic b-hadron decays.

We present an overview of the measurements of the like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry by the DO Collaboration at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton Collider. The results differ from the Standard Model prediction of CP violation in mixing and inter ference of B^0 and B^0_s by 3.6 standard deviations.

A surprisingly large charge symmetry violation of the sea quarks in the nucleon has been proposed in a recent article by Boros et al. as an explanation of the discrepancy between neutrino (CCFR) and muon (NMC) nucleon structure function data at low x . We show that these models are ruled out by the published CDF W charge asymmetry measurements, which strongly constrain the ratio of d and u quark momentum distributions in the proton over the x range of 0.006 to 0.34. This constraint also limits the systematic error from possible charge symmetry violation in the determination of sin^2(theta) from nu-N scattering experiments.
The production of Like-Sign-Di-leptons (LSD), in the high energy lepton number violating ($Delta L = +2$) reaction, p p --> 2jets + l+l+ (l=e,mu,tau) of interest for the experiments to be performed at the forthcoming Large Hadron Collider (LHC), is i nvestigated in detail, taking up a composite model scenario in which the exchanged virtual composite neutrino is assumed to be a Majorana particle that couples to the light leptons via the $SU(2)times U(1)$ gauge bosons through a magnetic type coupling ($sigma_{mu u}$). An helicity projection method is used to evaluate exactly the tree-level amplitudes of the contributing parton subprocesses ($2to 4$), which allows to take into account all exchange diagrams and occurring interferences. Numerical estimates of the corresponding signal cross-section that implement kinematical cuts needed to suppress the Standard Model background, are presented which show that in some regions of the parameter space the total number of LSD events is well above the background. Assuming non-observation of the LSD signal it is found that LHC would exclude a composite Majorana neutrino up to 850 GeV (if one requires 10 events for discovery). The sensitivity of LHC experiments to the parameter space is then compared to that of the next generation of neutrinoless double beta decay ($betabeta_{0 u}$) experiment, GENIUS, and it is shown that they will provide constraints of the same order of magnitude and will play a complementary role.
We have measured deconfined hadronic volumes, $4.4 < V < 13.0$ fm$^{3}$, produced by a one dimensional (1D) expansion. These volumes are directly proportional to the charged particle pseudorapidity densities $6.75 < dN_{c}/deta < 20.2$. The hadroniza tion temperature is $T = 179.5 pm 5$ (syst) MeV. Using Bjorkens 1D model,the hadronization energy density is $epsilon_{F} = 1.10 pm 0.26$ (stat) GeV/fm$^{3}$ corresponding to an excitation of $24.8 pm 6.2$ (stat) quark-gluon degrees of freedom.
