  The phenomenological features of the mixing in the neutral pseudoscalar
mesons K0-K0bar can be illustrated in the classical framework of mechanics and
by means of electromagnetic coupled circuits. The time-reversed not-invariant
processes and the related phenomenon of CP-nonconservation can be induced by
dissipative effects which yield a not vanishing imaginary part for the relevant
Hamiltonian. Thus, two coupled dissipative oscillators can resemble the
peculiar asymmetries which are so common in the realm of high energy particle
physics.
