Dear All,

Although the days shorten and the temperatures decrease, there is joy in the air for it is the beginning of the academic year and PhysTh seminars will start again. I am happy to announce that the first one will take place next Friday, the 1st of September, between 11am and 12pm. Maxim Pospelov, from the University of Minnesota, will tell us about Standard Model and EDMs (see abstract below). If you receive no further notifications from me, the seminar will take place in our seminar room: 2.N7.110.

Best regards,

Gaétan

———————————————— Abstract I review the main mechanisms that convert fundamental CP-violating parameters (theta_QCD and Kobayashi-Maskawa phase) to the observable electric dipole moments (EDMs). In light of recent experimental progress, the EDMs connected to electron spin (paramagnetic EDMs) are calculated. The limit on QCD theta angle is 2 * 10^(-8) and somewhat subdominant to neutron EDM, but can be improved. The Kobayashi-Maskawa phase contributes to paramagnetic EDMs at the level of 10^{-35} e cm in units of equivalent electron EDM, which is much larger than what was previously estimated. ————————————————
