Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Gustavo Branco made during the last 30 years outstanding
contributions to the understanding of the discrete symmetries in
particle physics and their violations in the framework of the
Standard Model and its extensions. In particular his work on the
violation of the so-called CP-symmetry in low energy processes and
recently on the generation of the observed matter-antimatter
asymmetry with the help of heavy neutrinos (leptogenesis) should
be emphasized. It is the last topic, which Prof. Branco has
extensively investigated in collaboration with his host Prof.
Andrzej Buras and his group at the Technical University Munich.
Prof. Branco`s book on the violation of CP symmetry is considered
as the best existing book on this topic
