Neutron electric dipole moment in a supersymmetric model with singlet quarks

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

The neutron electric dipole moment is investigated in a supersymmetric electroweak model admitting SU(2)W {\rm SU(2)}_W singlet and Q=1/3 Q = -1/3 , say D D -type, quarks. Significant CP CP violating phases appear in the coupling between the singlet D D -type quarks and the ordinary d d -type quarks. Then, through the d d -D D mixing effects on the squark mass terms the gluino one-loop diagrams provide naturally the contributions 1026e cm \sim 10^{-26} e~{\rm cm} comparable to the current experimental bound on the neutron electric dipole moment. The CP CP violation in the d d -D D coupling would also be relevant for the electroweak baryogenesis.
