Heavy quarks, namely, the top and bottom quarks, may show great sensitiveness to new physics effects. In particular, they might have unusually large electric dipole moments. This possibility is analyzed via the corresponding one-loop…
We analyse the electric dipole moment of the neutron in the MSSM, induced by the renormalisation of the soft-susy breaking terms. We run the RGEs using two-loop expressions for gauge and Yukawa couplings and retaining family dependence. The…

Gravitational redshifts of neutron stars have a theoretical upper limit of z=0.62. Also, it is generally believed that neutron stars have magnetic fields on the order of ten to the twelfth to ten to the thirteenth G. A previously predicted…
