Abstract

We study CP violation in e+eχ˜i+χ˜j in the framework of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. Though the cross section of this process is CP-even at the tree level even for polarized electron-positron beams, we show that it contains a CP-odd part at one-loop order and there are CP-odd observables that can in principle be measured even using unpolarized electron-positron beams. The relevant diagram calculations are briefly discussed, and the results of selected (box) diagram computations are shown.
