Quantum-mechanical decay laws in the neutral kaons
Résumé
The Hamiltonian Friedrichs model describing the evolution of a two-level system coupled to a continuum is used in order to modelize the decay of the kaon states K1, K2. Using different cut-off functions of the continuous degrees of freedom, we show that this model leads to a CP violation that qualitatively fits with experimental data improving previous numerical estimates. We also discuss the relation of our model to other models of open systems.
