Electric dipole moments, new forces and dark matter

New sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model are crucial to explain the baryon asymmetry in the Universe. We discuss the impact of new CP violating interactions in theories where a dark matter candidate is predicted by the cancellation of gauge anomalies. In these theories, the constraint on the dark matter relic density implies an upper bound on the new symmetry breaking scale from which all new states acquire their masses. We investigate in detail the predictions for electric dipole moments and show that if the relevant CP-violating phase is large, experiments such as the ACME collaboration will be able to fully probe the theory.

Automated summary

The discussion focused on the impact of new CP-violating interactions in theories predicting dark matter candidates, emphasizing the importance of new sources of CP violation in explaining baryon asymmetry in the Universe. The research indicated that experiments such as the ACME collaboration could fully probe the theory if the relevant CP-violating phase is significant.
