The Matter-Antimatter Asymmetry of the Universe
Abstract
I will give here an overview of the present observational and theoretical situation regarding the question of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe and the related question of the existence of antimatter on a cosmological scale. I will also give a simple discussion of the role of CP violation in this subject.
