{"arxiv_id":"hep-ph/0402023","title":"Probing CP Violation with the Deuteron Electric Dipole Moment","abstract":"We present an analysis of the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the deuteron as induced by CP-violating operators of dimension 4, 5 and 6 including theta QCD, the EDMs and color EDMs of quarks, four-quark interactions and the Weinberg operator. We demonstrate that the precision goal of the EDM Collaboration's proposal to search for the deuteron EDM, (1-3)\\times 10^{-27} e cm, will provide an improvement in sensitivity to these sources of one-two orders of magnitude relative to the existing bounds. We consider in detail the level to which CP-odd phases can be probed within the MSSM.","primary_cat":"hep-ph","cross_cats":["nucl-th"],"submitted_at":"2004-02-02T19:04:42+00:00","latest_version":2,"source":"arxiv","source_label":"arXiv","source_url":null,"has_pdf":true,"has_source":false,"verdict":"CONDITIONAL","confidence":"MODERATE","one_line_summary":"A proposed deuteron EDM measurement at the 10^-27 e cm level would improve sensitivity to the QCD theta angle and to MSSM CP-violating phases by one to two orders of magnitude over existing bounds.","novelty_score":6.0,"correctness_risk":"medium","formal_verification":"none","upvotes":0,"downvotes":0,"pith_score":0.0,"inbound_count":16,"_links":{"html":"https://pith.science/paper/hep-ph/0402023","verdict":"/api/v1/verdicts/hep-ph/0402023"}}
