Probing exotic phenomena at the interface of nuclear and particle physics with the electric dipole moments of diamagnetic atoms: A unique window to hadronic and semi-leptonic CP violation
The current status of electric dipole moments of diamagnetic atoms which involves the synergy between atomic experiments and three different theoretical areas, i.e. particle, nuclear and atomic, is reviewed. Vari...

The Supersymmetry
The supersymmetry is, simply stated, the symmetry between bosons and fermions. However, the dynamics of the supersymmetry is very complex and interesting. In this chapter, we will review the formalism of the s...

R-parity Violation and Phenomenological Constraints
We have seen in the previous chapter that the general renormalizable supersymmetric extension of the standard model allows also baryon and lepton number violating interactions. These interactions, called the R...

Constraints on Supersymmetric Models from Electric Dipole Moments
The supersymmetric standard model is one of the leading candidates of new physics. We have seen that the supersymmetric models, due to the soft breaking terms, have a large degree of freedom, and that many par...

Introduction
The construction of the quantum chromo dynamics and the electro weak theory with three generations of fermions lead to the establishment of the standard model (SM) of particle physics. The SM has been able to ...

EDM in the Standard Model
The only source of CP violation in the standard model (SM) is the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix, and its contribution to the electric dipole moment (EDM) is known to be very small. This fact is one of...
