The Electric Dipole Form Factor of the Nucleon

ORAL

Abstract

We use chiral perturbation theory in next-to-leading order to calculate the electric dipole form factor of the nucleon at low momentum. We consider effects from sources of time-reversal violation in the Standard Model up to effective dimension six: the QCD theta angle, the light quarks' electric and color-electric dipole moments, and the gluon color-electric dipole moment.
