The dipole moments of the leptons and quarks are matrices in flavor space, which can potentially reveal as much about the flavor structure of the theory as do the mass matrices. The off-diagonal elements of the dipole matrices lead to…
I highlight a few thoughts on the contribution to the dipole moments from the so-called $\theta$ parameter. The dipole moments are known can be generated by $\theta$. In fact, the renowned strong $\cal{CP}$ problem was formulated as a…
