Neutron Electric Dipole Moment from Beyond the Standard Model

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2018-12-18 v1

Abstract

We present an update on our calculations of the matrix elements of the CP violating quark and gluon chromo-EDM operators, as well as the operators these mix with, such as the QCD Theta-term. Their contribution to the neutron EDM is obtained by extrapolating the F3F_3 form factor of a vector current to zero momentum transfer. The calculation is being done using valence Wilson-clover quarks on HISQ background configurations generated by the MILC collaboration.
