Neutron Electric Dipole Moment on the Lattice: a Theoretical Reappraisal
We present a strategy for a lattice evaluation of the neutron electric dipole moment induced by the strong CP violating term of the QCD Lagrangian. Our strategy is based on the standard definition of the electric dipole moment, involving the charge density operator J0, in case of three flavors with non-degenerate masses. We present a complete diagrammatic analysis showing how the axial chiral W...
متن کاملThe Muon Electric Dipole Moment
The electric dipole moment of the muon (dμ) is evaluated in a two Higgs doublet model with a softly broken discrete symmetry. For tan β ≡ |v2|/|v1| ∼ 1, contributions from two loop diagrams involving the t quark and the W boson dominate; while for tan β ∼ > 10, contributions from two loop diagrams involving the b quark and the τ lepton are dominant. For 8 ∼ > tan β ∼ > 4, significant cancellati...
متن کاملNeutron Electric Dipole Moment Experiments
The possibility of a non-zero value for neutron EDM continues to be of central importance in physics and cosmology. A non-zero neutron EDM would be a direct evidence for time-reversal symmetry violation. It also implies CP-violation under the assumption of CPT invariance. To date, only two examples of CP-violation have been found: decays of neutral K mesons and B mesons. CP-violation is believe...
متن کاملNeutron Electric Dipole Moment Experiment
A.1.a General Introduction Precision measurements of the properties of the neutron present an opportunity to search for violations of fundamental symmetries and to make critical tests of the validity of the Standard Model (SM) of electroweak (EW) interactions. These experiments have been pursued with great energy and interest since Chadwick [i] discovered the neutron in 1932. Searches for the e...
متن کاملSearch for a Neutron Electric Dipole Moment
The possible existence of a nonzero electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutron is of great fundamental interest in itself and directly impacts our understanding of the nature of electro-weak and strong interactions. The experimental search for this moment has the potential to reveal new sources of T and CP violation and to challenge calculations that propose extensions to the Standard Model. T...
