Abstract

The structure of the quark mass matrices in the standard electroweak model is investigated. The commutator of the quark mass matrices is found to provide a convention-independent measure of CP nonconservation. The question of maximal CP nonconservation is discussed. The present experimental data indicate that nowhere is CP nonconservation maximal.
