1 Experimental tests of the SM (3): non-collider particle physics FK8022, Lecture 7 Core text: Further reading:

2 Collider vs non-collider physics (1) Can see new physics ? Max energy scale Max precisionCharacterisation of new physics Colliders Good – precision measurements of particle masses/couplings. Non-colliders Poor There is life beyond the large collaborations. New physics often found at the high energy/high precision frontiers. Colliders and non-colliders offer complementarity.

3 Collider vis non-collider physics (2) TopicScenario Anomaous charge ( q<<e ) Millicharged partices Proton decayGUTs Neutrinoless double  -decay AxionsDark matter/strong CP problem Electric dipole moments Precision SM test – search for new physics Magnetic dipole moments Precision SM test – search for new physics Non-colliders also perform studies for specific scenarios or (mad ) speculative ideas which are impossible for colliders to probe. Impossible to cover all in one lecture. Neutrinoless double  -decay covered by Thomas. Dipole moment measurements/searches among the most high profile of non-collider research (this lecture) Give a flavour of the type of work which is done and how its done. Major neutrino expts not listed (see Thomas’ lectures)

4 Dipole moments

5 Electric dipole moments violate T -invariance OR T A non-zero permanent electric dipole moment violates T -invariance!

6 Electric dipole moment Similar argument can be made for Parity. A permanent EDM violates P and T. – CP also violated ( CPT invariance) Standard Mode CPV predicts tiny EDMs Searches for EDMs test strong CP sector of the SM Sensitive to many exotics scenarios

7 SM and BSM contributions to electron-EDM Electroweak 4 loops + cancellation needed. Standard Model 1 loop sufficient CP -violating phase Supersymmetry
