Title: The Electric Dipole Moment of the Neutron revisited
1The Electric Dipole Moment ofthe Neutron
revisited
Schedar Marchetti
2Motivations 1
- The electric dipole moment (edm) of particles is
an important window to CP beyond SM in ?F0
sector - In the SM the edms arise from dCKM
this contribution is much - smaller than current exp. limits ( 6 order
of magnitude) - dN lt 6.3 10-26 e cm
- In Supersymmetric models there are new sources of
CP from the - complex phase of the soft SUSY breaking
parameters and µ term - The presence of new CP is needed to have an
efficient baryogenesis - Unconstrained MSSM 40 phases
- GUT
4 allowed phases but only 2 - mSUGRA
are physical fA and fµ - Flavour Universality
- Are this phases costrained using the current
exp. costraints from neutron edms ?
3Motivations 2
- Neutron edm SUSY problem
- naive estimation dN 2(100 )
sin fA,µ 10-23 e cm - Two regions
- M gt O(TeV) fA,µ O(1)
Hierarchy Problem - M lt O(TeV) fA,µ O(10 2)
Fine tuning? dCKM O(1)? - To go beyond complete one loop analysis
of neutron edms - scan of the parameter space just
to see what happens varying - M in this regions
- Alternative picture some cancellations
mechanism beyond the -
various contributions?

distribution of charge is - defined as

Time Reversal - d ? d , J ? J Under

corresponds to -

5Electric Dipole Moment
- If we consider strong interacting particle, such
as atoms and hadrons - (e.g. mercury and neutron), other operators
must take into account - Heff C7(µ) O7(µ) C8(µ) O8(µ) CG(µ)

Gluonic dipole -
- The Weinberg operator OG can be neglected at the
leading order - only O7 and O8 enter in the game

14Preliminary Conclusions
- Two observations
- 1 Hierarchies gluino gt chargino gtgt
neutralino - 2 Gluino tend to be opposite in sign to chargino
possibility of a - systematic negative interference between the
two contributions ? - in the previous literature the
sensitivity to this cancellations was - limited to more or less limited areas, and
requiring at least an O(TeV) - parameter fine tuning ?

15Improved Analysis (work in progress)
- This is only a quick look to go more in details
- The previous choice of parameters is clearly
inconsistent - universal soft breaking at the GUT scale and
running the parameters - down to EW scale
- Inclusion of the NLO contributions at least for
the dominant gluino - exchange
- resummation of the
terms through RGE - Possible contribution from Chromoelectric and
Weinberg operators - Hadronic matrix elements beyond naive estimation
- Another edm could take into the game (e.g.
electron, mercury) - crossing analysis
