abstract

We discuss the construction of the most general CP-violating chiral Lagrangian for an axion-like particle (ALP). Starting with an effective Lagrangian containing light quarks and gluons, we provide its matching onto a chiral effective Lagrangian at $\mathcal{O}(p^2)$ described in terms of mesons and baryons, identifying the correspondence between the Jarlskog invariants of the two theories. After deriving the ALP interactions with mesons and baryons, we analyse a few relevant phenomenological implications such as the permanent electric dipole moments of nucleons and the CP-violating ALP and kaon decays.This work provides the necessary tools for further phenomenological analyses connecting low-energy observables with the couplings of the underlying ultraviolet complete theory.

  1. How to Identify a Majoron: Effective Field Theories of Spontaneous Lepton Number Breaking

    hep-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Seesaw Majoron models imply parameter-free correlations among Higgs, muon decay, and neutrino observables that can identify the neutrino mass mechanism.

  2. ALP pair production at the LHC

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Non-resonant gg→aa→4γ production could constrain the dimension-6 ALP-gluon coupling down to ~10^-3 TeV^-2 at 300 fb^-1, but the allowed parameter space remains unbounded along multiple flat directions.

  3. Positivity and partial wave unitarity bounds on ALP theories via amplitude methods

    hep-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Complete partial-wave unitarity and positivity bounds are derived for ALP effective interactions up to dimension 8, with new SMEFT positivity constraints as a byproduct.

  4. Comprehensive ALP Searches in Meson Decays

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A new open-source tool, ALPaca, computes axion-like particle constraints from meson decays and finds that only the non-universal DFSZ model with large tan beta can explain the Belle II B+ to K+ plus missing energy exc...

  5. Constraining ALP-Top Interaction from the Chromoelectric Dipole Moment of the Top Quark

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper derives the one- and two-loop top quark CEDM induced by a CP-violating ALP at q^2 = m_t^2 and uses it to set new bounds on the ALP-top coupling, with the neutron EDM giving the strongest of the three new limits.

  6. Renormalization of effective field theories via on-shell methods: the case of axion-like particles

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Complete one-loop anomalous dimension matrix for a CP-violating ALP effective field theory, derived via on-shell unitarity methods and extended to dimension-6 SMEFT operators.
