The Two State Neutral Kaon System

The neutral Kaons, \bgroup\color{black}$K^0$\egroup and \bgroup\color{black}$\bar{K^0}$\egroup form a very interesting two state system. As in the Ammonia molecule, there is a small amplitude to make a transition form one to the other. A violation of CP symmetry is seen in the decays of these particles.
