Electric dipole moments constitute highly sensitive probes for CP-violating effects beyond the Standard Model. The upper limits obtained in various precision experiments can therefore be used to strongly restrict new physics models.…
The current limit on the electron's electric dipole moment, $|d_\mathrm{e}|<8.7\times 10^{-29} e {\cdotp} {\rm cm}$ (90% confidence), was set using the molecule thorium monoxide (ThO) in the $J=1$ rotational level of its $H ^3\Delta_1$…

A permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of a particle or system is a separation of charge along its angular-momentum axis and is a direct signal of T-violation and, assuming CPT symmetry, CP violation. For over sixty years EDMs have been…
We systematically analyze constraints on supersymmetric theories imposed by the experimental bounds on the electron, neutron, and mercury electric dipole moments. We critically reappraise the known mechanisms to suppress the EDMs and…
